Session

Starting the Diversity conversation in your family and family business

Small Group Discussion

Introduction of starting diversity conversations in family businesses to build it into the values of the company

Ownership as the driver to resolve differences and impact lives

Case Study

Conscious ownership gives you the ability to accept, face and deal with all the unknown and brings about strength, courage, determination and the certainty deep within that you can deal with it. 


The two speakers will share with you how the shared sense of belonging and community empowered and encouraged the family to resolve differences and take the company forward in service of both the FB and the community at large. 


Going back in history, Aasiya and Samana will walk participants through the process they have initiated in accepting to own it all: the FB, the long lasting conflict history, their relationships, their individual selves as well as the unknown related to all these aspects. Change is the only thing that is constant. “The future is always unknown, but both the future of the business and the FB are yours and you have to consciously and actively own it”.


They will witness how important it is for the NxG to be aware of the impact FB have in the communities so to give them the strength, courage and determination to persevere in the face of adversity. 


They will also bring to the fore front how differences are now perceived as a strength and an opportunity to nurture creativity.
