Context

The Next-Gen Challenge

A Quiet but Profound Transition

The conversation at the heart of this journey is not only about inheritance and asset protection. It is about the inner architecture of legacy: the values, vision and relationships that will determine whether the family enterprise regenerates or fragments.

Across Asia and particularly within Vietnam, Doi Moi founders are looking to the horizon. You carry their expectations — and your own aspirations.

You are navigating a VUCA landscape where enterprise foundations are being tested and norms are being challenged. At the same time, a massive transfer of wealth, ownership and responsibility is underway.

As next-gen, you are asked to: 

honour the legacy while responding to disruptive realities and your own sense of purpose
balance filial piety with independence and self-authorship
hold the "big family" and "small family" systems in tension
carry expectations without a clear roadmap for influence

These transitions are not just technical or financial. They are emotional, relational and deeply systemic.

Our Invitation

A Generative Space,
Not Another Networking Group

The Meta-System Leadership Circle™ (MSLC) is a 9-month, invite-only learning journey for next-gen leaders of family enterprises.

We are not offering a motivational quick fix. We are not building a social or business club. There are enough of those out there.

MSLC is a deliberately held space to think, discover, experiment and apply a different kind of acumen: a meta-system way of seeing Self, Family and Enterprise within one living system.

Move from shadow to stewardship in the family enterprise.
Decode the invisible "shadows" of legacy and conflict.
Explore your own platform of impact, including philanthropy and innovation.
Anchor your decisions in a shared, sustainable legacy rather than short-term harmony.
Transformation

From Ambiguity to Clarity

The work of MSLC is to turn unspoken tension into grounded stewardship across three domains: Identity, Influence and Integrality.
01

Identity

Before

"I am navigating in the shadows of those who came before me."

After

"I find my own voice and expression in the family, the enterprise and society — grounded in my values, not just my surname."

02

Integrality

Before

"I avoid difficult conversations to keep the peace, but the tension remains and trust erodes quietly."

After

"I understand the source of conflicts and distrust and can generate resolution and alignment toward a shared future — The Hive Effect in action."

03

Impact

Before

"I have the title, but limited influence. I lack the roadmap to transform tradition."

After

"I gain tools to balance tradition with transformation, drawing on entrepreneurial acumen, generative listening and big-picture thinking."

Plan Your Legacy
This is why the Next-Gen Lab™ exists.
To equip, empower, and develop you.
Shared Legacy
(Transgenerational Roadmap)
We work at the intersection of these three domains — where difficult conversations, key decisions and identity questions converge.

In MSLC, you learn to decode three interdependent subsystems and their patterns:

The Enterprise — performance, governance, ownership and strategic choices.

The Family — roles, loyalties, expectations and the “big vs small family” dynamic.

The Individual — your inner architecture of values, fears, ambitions and calling.

Through cases, reflection and live dialogues, you practice big-picture thinking: from profit sharing to progress sharing; from individual success to shared, sustainable success.

 

You also build practical skills for high-stakes communication and conflict navigation, so that the legacy can be renewed rather than frozen in a previous generation.
