Episode 32: Siblings Stewarding a 133-Year-Old Legacy | Growing Into the Role You Were Meant For | Making Values Real, Not Ritual

In this episode of the “Family Business/Business Family” podcast, Jeannie Cullen Schultz and George Cullen, siblings and fifth-generation co-presidents of 133-year-old construction firm JP Cullen, reflect on their distinct paths into the business and how a thoughtful succession process equipped them to lead together while honoring the company’s legacy and keeping family dynamics out of the boardroom. Also, Dana Gruber, third-generation president of Actco Tool & Manufacturing Company, explains how stepping away — and ultimately returning with renewed clarity — reshaped her leadership approach and her understanding of resilience, generational expectations and purpose. And Family Business Magazine Contributing Editor Dennis Jaffe discusses “Living Your Values,” his new book co-authored with Cynthia Scott and published through Family Business Press.
