The second-generation business leader and Media Director of Orange Group, Uchenna Ezenna-Gboneme, has officially launched her business podcast, ‘Generational Business.’
As a progeny of Orange Group’s Sir Tony Ezenna, Gboneme’s curiosity in analysing and understanding the intricacies of business succession in Nigeria was piqued after a course at the Pan African University where she met business leaders concerned about the challenges of succession. “It is eye-opening to show the different businesses in Nigeria that are family-led,” she added. Her goal for Generational Business is to throw light on how generational businesses thrive in “Our climate, how they can set up structures that stand the test of time”, and how to balance the delicate dynamics of family ties.
The podcast hopes to give a more in-depth and closer look at the family business dynamics through two or more generations and uncover the people, policies, principles, and visions that drive these long-standing companies as well as having more women run family businesses.
