Now Generation Peer Group
So you're in a leadership role in your family business. Now what?
UNI’s Now Generation peer group supports executive-level leaders through difficult decisions and continued education about family business topics. This group connects you with other leaders like you. Participants will develop and practice their leadership style, create a lifetime development plan, and increase their effectiveness as responsible family business leaders.
The Now Generation Peer Group is available via Zoom and periodically in person. Members of the UNI Family Business Center can take part at a discounted rate.

- Monthly meetings professionally facilitated with 8-14 emerging leaders
