The second edition of PwC Thailand’s NextGen Survey 2022 will try to answer these questions by offering insights into how NextGens are navigating the challenges of succession, their leadership roles, ESG impacts and digitalisation.
The survey also addresses family expectations and how these young leaders manage them. It also discusses what skills they’re interested in expanding to ensure their relevance within the business.
Deciding which areas to prioritise is no easy task. When asked about key priorities, nearly two-thirds of them see business growth (63%) as a top priority, followed by expansion into new sectors or markets (50%). This aligns with their global peers who also seek long-term success for their family businesses.
