“Family businesses are more than just enterprises; they are legacies passed down through generations.”
– Seema Mahajan
In today’s rapidly evolving business environment, family businesses must reassess their priorities to ensure a legacy that balances profitability with purpose. PwC’s 2024 Global Family Business Survey shows that 85% of family enterprises lack a clear Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) strategy, and nearly 60% struggle to communicate their core values effectively. Despite these challenges, 77% anticipate growth over the next two years, particularly through expansion into new markets. Embracing transformative technologies like generative AI is crucial; 73% of NextGen leaders view it as essential for future success, even as concerns about readiness persist. A dedicated course for family businesses can empower future leaders with the necessary insights and strategies to navigate complexities while honouring their heritage. This approach fosters resilience, strengthens family unity, and ensures these businesses thrive while staying committed to long-term sustainability and purpose.
We are acutely aware of the crucial role emerging markets play in the evolution of global business. While they offer unprecedented opportunities for entrepreneurial growth, they also come with the complexities of navigating cultural nuances and changing consumer behaviours. Understanding and surmounting these challenges in today’s volatile business environment—marked by political shifts, regulatory uncertainties, and rapid market changes—will be essential for our future leaders.
