Andrea Benkenstein Kruger, Head of Family Governance & Succession SA, moderated a panel discussion on Through the Lens of the Next Generation.
Today I'll be having a discussion
with three wonderful next gens.
We'll be talking about the career path they've taken
and decision making process
that got them to where they are today.
We'll also be discussing family dynamics,
the unique pressures they experience, as well
as investment strategies
to name a few. The majority of the panel
form part of our Stonehage Fleming Future Focus group,
which is a group that discuss
and debate challenges in business and in families,
and get to workable solutions for the future.
Family first or business first.
I really choose family business first
and it means that everything
that we do is for the family.
I've really enjoyed the authenticity, their openness,
willingness to share their stories
for the other panel members as well as the audience
to be able to relate and learn from them.
And maybe go home and think about these conversations
and topics themselves and maybe discuss it
with their children.
