Grace Headinger

PhD Candidate in Strategy & Entrepreneurship

About Me


I am a PhD student in Strategy and Entrepreneurship at London Business School. My research examines how shared ownership across the family enterprise’s multiple organizations influences its organizational outcomes and societal impact. My work highlights how strategic relationships emerge among these entities, with a particular focus on the roles and interactions of family offices and family foundations.

Prior to LBS, I was a Research Associate in the Finance and Entrepreneurial Management units at Harvard Business School, where I co-authored over 20 HBS case studies on FinTech companies and family enterprises in addition to helping to launch How to Not Bankrupt Your Family, a first-of-its-kind MBA elective course on family offices. I have also taught as the Head Program Instructor for the HarvardVPAL FinTech short course, which explores the impact of technologies ranging from machine learning to blockchain on the financial services industry and annually enrols over 400 students from various professional backgrounds from around the world.  

I received my B.A. in International Affairs from George Washington University’s Elliott School for International Affairs with a minor in economics and a concentration in security policy. In my time away from research, I enjoy backpacking, exploring new cultures and languages, and learning fun facts about London history.
