After Success: What’s Next

I recently had the opportunity to address the Tugboat Institute, a gathering of entrepreneurs who are focused on long-term values in their companies.

Dave Whorton, founder of Tugboat:

For Evergreen entrepreneurs, building a company that will last more than 100 years means taking great care with transitions such as transferring leadership within our businesses and transferring wealth, values and stewardship within our families.

Recent articles in Tharawat magazine and the STEP Journal, outlining the concepts and recommendations in Cross Cultures, published in November 2015.
