Leadership

Who is the real leader in a family business?


It is rarely the one with the title, and it is rarely the one with the diploma on the wall.


True leadership is not claimed. It is entrusted.It lives in the person the family instinctively turns to. The one who listens, reconciles, and carries the family’s voice with dignity.


The challenge is to find the catalyst who can bridge two worlds: legitimacy in the eyes of the family, and credibility in the world of business.


A leader who embodies loyalty and values, while embracing discipline and vision. In that rare synthesis lies the future of the family enterprise.
