Perth, BWA Roundtable: Beyond Wealth - Preparing the Next Generation

Business Women Australia Perth Leaders Roundtable: Beyond Wealth - Preparing the Next Generation

Australia is entering a significant shift in wealth,  but the real question is not just who receives it, but who is ready for it.

This curated roundtable, hosted by Belinda von Knoll, explores how we prepare the next generation of decision-makers, whether they are:

• Successors in a business

• Senior leaders stepping into ownership

• Employees inheriting responsibility, influence, or wealth

• Children and next-generation family members

• Individuals stepping into wealth themselves

This is not just about inheritance.

It is about:

• Preparedness

• Judgement

• Values

• Stewardship of capital, resources, people, and opportunity

'The next generation' is not defined by age; it is defined by those about to step into greater responsibility.

Who This Roundtable Is For

• Business owners planning succession

• Leaders developing future decision-makers

• Women building wealth and influence (with or without children)

• Professionals expecting an inheritance or stepping into leadership

• Families thinking about legacy

• Employers who care about the long-term capability of their people

Through shared insight and real-world experience, we will explore what works, what doesn’t, and what it truly takes to carry wealth and responsibility.

Facilitated Boardroom Dialogue

This boardroom roundtable discussion will be grounded in Business Women Australia’s conscious leadership framework, inviting candid reflection, holding space, and peer exchange in a safe, confidential setting. Chatham House Rules apply.
