Introduction and Keynote Conversation with Peter and Scott Felsenthal

A keynote with father-son team, Peter and Scott Felsenthal, CEO at Whitmor. Scott and his father will discuss his decade-plus-long rise to the top in their family company, and what factors that led to his promotion over the family’s other G4s.


Please note: You can ask questions anytime during the presentation by using the Q&A box. Questions will appear as “waiting for review.” We will get to as many questions as possible. 

If you prefer, you can minimize the Q&A window.

Deciding Whether or Not to Join the Family Business

How to Choose and Work with a Mentor

A mentor can help you navigate both business and family challenges.  How can you identify potential mentors?  Should they be family members?  Non-family members?  And what’s the plan to get the most from the mentor relationship?
