In this episode, Trey Travis, third-generation leader at Bremen, Ga.-based Southeastern Hose, talks about the culture his dad and uncle built running the company for three decades, and what it's taken him and his brother to carry it forward as the business has nearly doubled in size.
In part 2 of our conversation with Shane Foye, second-generation president of Peachtree Corners, Ga.-based site services company DW1, he talks about the friction of building his family's own software platform from scratch and the difference between knowledge and wisdom when a younger leader pushes change on a team that's been doing things one way for decades.
Also, Jamie Shah, G2 president of Chem-Impex and an adjunct faculty member at The University of Chicago Booth School of Business, discusses her latest "For What It's Worth" advice column, which tackles what to do when you've just been named CEO of your family's business and have to negotiate your own compensation with no board and no market benchmark to lean on.
