About
At the heart of legacy is the ‘golden thread’ of the family values; the principles that influence decisions, define relationships, and determine outcomes for both the family and the business.
Join Emma Ayres, 3rd Generation Chair of Bennie Group, and Matthew Ayres, 4th Generation CEO of Bennie Group to discuss the opportunities, challenges and risks of being the stewards of family values for the Bennie Group. Interviewed by Guy Broadfield, Burges Salmon, this conversation will explore how legacy can be preserved and evolved to suit the changing needs of the business and the family.
Key topics
- Does protecting and preserving legacy values help attract and retain talent or contribute to cultural stagnation?
- Do values restrict innovation, or become an obstacle to change?
- How can values be harnessed in such a way as to also mitigate the risks and downsides?
