The Nepotism Issue
Notas del episodio
Is keeping a business strictly within the family--to the exclusion of everyone else on the planet who could run it effectively--ever defensible?
Chappall Gage makes a decent case for why it just might be.
Chap is CEO of Susan Gage, a very successful catering company in Washington, DC with more than $25 million in annual sales.

In this conversation, you hear him grappling with the idea of whether they should succeed him. And he definitely does not want family money or unfair expectations to ruin their lives.
