“Being a GEN Faculty member is a true pleasure. Learning together with people from all over the world is truly inspiring and enriching. I am fascinated by the depth and richness of the webinar discussions and I am truly grateful for being part of a community where people so generously and genuinely share their knowledge and experiences.”

“The opportunity to be GEN faculty is one of the great opportunities in my life. I am always intrigued with people from all disciplines and countries all over the world coming together with a common theme—how to be helpful to the business families they advise. They have very successful careers already and still they are pushing the edge—wanting to learn more and not to rest on what they have already accomplished.”

“I look forward to every batch of GEN 102. Each participant brings interesting and fresh perspective and insights. Learning comes as much from the sharing of experiences from our learners. I am very much thankful to have shared in their journey.”

“I am truly grateful to be a new GEN 201 faculty member and teach the action research model, a fantastic consultancy tool that has shaped my own work with family business through the years. It is really very rewarding and amazing how the students, each one with such a different national and cultural background, engage in the course by sharing their perspectives and challenges in so many contexts globally. FFI has really been a pioneer in going digital with the GEN program many years ago, what vision!”

“It’s a privilege to participate as a faculty member of the FFI GEN Program, recognized as the global source of education and research for family enterprises. I get to share both practice and theory with my peers on the faculty and with our students. I also get to learn from others weekly, which extends my ability to serve my clients well.”

“I enjoy the conversation with the multi-disciplinary group of participants and friends.  People bring in different perspectives as we go though the case study in the capstone together. I am privileged to be connected to like-minded professionals from different cultures. The process drives me to rethink assumptions I hold and to help keep my research practical. I learn a lot in the facilitation process!”

“One of the best parts of being a GEN faculty member is the co-creating and co-learning. It reminds me to look at things as a beginner, with fresh eyes and to challenge my practice with a group of other accomplished professionals from different disciplines of origin to shape and edify their own practice. We dive into the academic rigor/principles and turn them into practical tools and methodologies. It’s creating community as we raise the bar of family advising throughout the world.”
