About this Event

The Greater Fayetteville Business Journal invites you to join us for our third quarterly Power Breakfast, The Family Business Advantage: How Third-Generation Leaders Drive Longevity and Innovation, where business owners, executives, and community leaders will come together to explore how multi-generational leadership creates lasting success.

We are proud to welcome Stephen Wheeler, CEO of Holmes Security Systems, Drew Smith, Director of Communications for Copiers Plus, Mary Grace Hurley, Inside Sales at Hubbard Supplyhouse and Nate Ernst, Managing Partner of Luigi's Italian Chophouse & Bar as our featured panelists. Representing the third generation of leadership within their family businesses, each brings a unique perspective on honoring decades of tradition while embracing new ideas, technologies, and strategies that drive long-term growth. Together, with moderator Lauren Willets, Director of the Family Enterprise Center at UNC’s Kenan-Flagler Business School, they will share the challenges, opportunities, and lessons learned from leading established organizations into the future.

Join us at the Cape Fear Botanical Garden for an inspiring morning of networking, thought-provoking discussion, and actionable insights into the power of continuity, strategic evolution, and visionary leadership. Whether your organization is family-owned or simply focused on creating a lasting legacy, you'll leave with ideas that can strengthen your business for generations to come.
