Generation 1-2 Builders: Designing a Shared Vision for the Hojel Family

Ricard Hojel was a unique Mexican business owner who preferred partnership over personal control. He launched several companies in his lifetime, maneuvering past physical handicaps thanks to the tremendous support from his wife, Phyllis C. Hojel, and their four children. At the time of his death, he had an extensive network of business owner peers, oversight of a number of operating companies, and a portfolio of diverse properties. Before Ricard became ill, his oldest son, Richard C. Hojel, stepped in to learn the operating companies, and with his siblings and their spouses, created a shared governance process that the Gen 3s are now eager to understand.
