Family Business United Launches Global Think Tank Findings

Here at Family Business United we are delighted to announce the launch of our inaugural Global Family Business Think Tank Report which summarises the thoughts of over 100 leading family business owners, experts and advisers from around the world on specific topics that will help to shape family business discussions and strategies going forward including thoughts on board diversity, future roles of women in family business, purpose, values, storytelling and governance to name a few.

Some of the key findings include:

• 97% of respondents believe that we will see more women family business leaders in the next few years

• Only 26% of respondents feel that family businesses make the most of their narrative

• Only 26% of respondents feel that family business boards are sufficiently - diverse

• 97% of respondents feel that family businesses need to change the way that they engage with the next generation

• 83% do not feel that there is sufficient support from governments or policy makers

As well as the top level statistics that highlight areas that need to be on the family business agenda, we have included quotes from some of the global participants and a number of articles too.

We hope that the report enables conversations to take place to bring the family business community together to further innovate, drive changes as a force for good and helps provide further support for families in business to continue to flourish for generations to come.
