Shaping Tomorrow’s Leaders Together
At Family Business Association (FBA), we believe the future of family business lies in empowered leadership, meaningful connection, and intentional growth. Our Emerging Leaders Forum Group is designed to help the next generation step into their potential not just as professionals, but as future custodians of family legacy.
This is where learning meets purpose. Where the next generation finds their voice, and where family businesses build a future that honours tradition.
Who Is The Forum Group For
Whether you're a next-gen family member preparing for future leadership, or a young family contributor with ambitious goals, this group is for you! You don’t need all the answers. Just a desire to learn and connect with others who are walking a similar path to you.
What You Can Achieve with Your Participation
This is not a one-off workshop, it’s an immersive, ongoing peer experience. The group meets regularly across the year, both online and in person, to explore challenges, share ideas, and build leadership capacity in a confidential, professionally facilitated environment.
You will gain:
- A strong, supportive network of peers who truly understand the dynamics of family business.
- Real-world tools and leadership insights to help you step into your role with clarity and confidence.
- A deeper sense of identity and purpose as you shape your future and the legacy of your business.
Hear from one of our Emerging Leader Member’s, Harshika Mahendiran.
“It’s like we’re not in it alone… we empathise with each other, because we’re surrounded by people in the same scenario as I’m in.”

Why It Matters
The Emerging Leaders Forum Group isn’t just about developing skills, it’s about building futures. For younger participants, it’s a chance to step into leadership with purpose. For older family members, it’s an opportunity to invest in the future of your family’s succession.

“Being a part of the Emerging Leaders Forum Group is going to help not just myself grow into a leadership role, but help this business turn into a third-generation business and thrive.” - Daniel Lubrano
