Effective Succession and Leadership in Multigenerational Businesses

Taking over a multigenerational business comes with its own set of challenges. 

Eric Scherzinger and Kurt Scherzinger knew that to scale sustainably, they needed to start with a shift in mindset and in the way the business operated. 

As members of the senior management of ScherZinger Pest Control, the brothers are on a mission to help homeowners get rid of their bug problems. They stop by the Pest in Class podcast, hosted by Amanda Salvatore, to share their professional journey and highlight the challenges of working in a family business. 

They also provide advice for those planning to join a multigenerational business, how to create a good work culture, and how to ensure a smooth transition to another software.
