What are the challenges and perks of handling age-old legacies? If you come into a position of power through a position of privilege how do you make sure that you earn respect more so if you are a woman? These and many more questions are what Daughters of Legacy seeks to answer through the stories of twelve successful women who grew up with strong business lineages. While Ashni Biyani chief ideator Future Group looks at herself as a co-creator of the business rather than a just a legacy bearer Manasi Kirloskar executive director and CEO Kirloskar Systems Ltd admits that she is hugely privileged in inheriting a large business but also goes on to point out that she could lose everything overnight if she isnt competent. And Meher Pudumjees acceptance as non-executive chairperson of Thermax Global that legacies can sometimes feel like a burden is followed close on the heels by the realization that there is nothing more that one can do except give ones best. Chosen from a wide cross section in terms of scale of business roles and hierarchy these women have not only kept the legacies alive but have also gone on to carve a niche for themselves as individuals beyond their famous last names. Clearly for all of them legacy is far more than mere inheritance.
