I was pleased to join Russ Haworth, Bryn Monahan, and Jessica McGawley for The UHNW Institute's conversation on rising-gen readiness, coaching, and mentorship.
One theme we explored is that preparing the next generation requires more than presenting information. There is a difference between riding in the car and being in the driver’s seat. A rising-gen family member may hear the explanations, attend the meetings, and see the route many times. But readiness develops when they have supported opportunities to use judgment, make choices, and carry responsibility themselves.
Teaching can explain the system. Education can help people understand it. Development helps people become more capable of using what they know in real situations, with real choices and consequences.
Thank you to the UHNW Institute for convening the conversation and to Russ, Bryn, and Jessica for such a thoughtful exchange.
From The UHNW Institute
What really shapes how the next generation steps into responsibility within a family?
In a new episode of The UHNW Institute Podcast, host Russ Haworth speaks with Bryn Monahan, UHNW Institute faculty and co-chair of the Emerging Leaders Initiative, Paul Edelman, PhD, UHNW Institute faculty member, and Jessica McGawley, The Rising Gen Expert, about developing rising generations within family systems and why that work differs from developing emerging leaders inside an organization.
They discuss:
· How a strong sense of individual identity shapes long-term family decision-making
· How to balance protecting and challenging the next generation
· Where advisors add the most value by supporting growth without overstepping
