In this episode, we explore one of the more subtle dynamics inside wealthy families and family enterprises: influence without formal power. We see how credibility, judgement, trust and behaviour often shape decisions far more than formal titles or explicit authority, and why learning to influence thoughtfully is an essential skill for the next generation.

This podcast is for you if you're a member of the next generation of a family connected to wealth. Not one of those who created it, but one of those who will one day inherit responsibility for it. It is based on the session notes of mentoring sessions I recently shared with a remarkable young woman, Clara, heiress to a substantial european enterprise, as she prepared herself to take more responsibility.If you have grown up around a family enterprise, significant capital, or a well known name, like she did, you may already have a sense that your life will be shaped by something you did not design. Expectations exist. Structures are in place. Decisions are being made. And yet very little is explained from your perspective.The short episodes offer real help on your journey. Across them we look at identity, pressure, governance, family dynamics, credibility, and the gradual shift from observer to participant.A new episode is uploaded every 2 days. I hope that they help.
