Watch the interview to learn what succession actually looks like (not the TV show), and the sorts of things we millennials consider as we step into leadership roles in our family businesses.

Check out this week’s The Upgrade | Weekly for my full interview with Ian Swain II, as well as highlights of other millennials taking leadership positions in their family hospitality companies around the world.

Over the years, I've watched as Adare Manor continues to improve and expand, while still maintaining the feeling of being a family home.

The service: this is really where they go above and beyond. From the friendly doormen who know the whole history of the place, to the front desk agents and concierge who will tell you which pub has Irish music that night, this hotel pulls off being five star without feeling stuffy.

The food: burgers at the carriage house, tapas in the Tack Room, tea in the Gallery, a Michelin starred meal in the Oak Room, everything I eat there is scrumptious.

The grounds: they have an epic fairy garden onsite where I could explore for hours.

The facilities: the Ryder Cup is going to be here next for good reason - their golf course is gorgeous. The Padel Club is an incredible day spa with a private yoga room, fitness facility, jacuzzi facing the trees, steam room, sauna, and Padel courts.

Family friendly: a lot of five star hotels aren't welcoming to little kids, but Adare goes out of their way to include them. They have family lodge style accommodations that are 2 and 3 bedrooms, and tons of family friendly activities. I took Malia two years ago and she loved the falconry and receiving a special fairy key.

I always know when I send clients here, they will have an amazing time.
