A
fixture among private companies
Kohler
Co. began in 1873 when
it put feet on a hog-scalding
trough and called it
a bathtub. Over
100 years later, Kohler

keep the CEO up to par,
but will Kohler really
be able to remain in
the family for generations
to come?

men huddled off to the
sides, clutching glasses
of mineral water and trying
not to look anxious. All
around them, mostly gray-
haired or balding Silicon
Valley veterans traded jokes and
gossip over cocktails.
The Band of Angels was
convening again.
