Why you should read Strategic Planning for the Family Business
Balancing the needs of a business and the family that controls it might seem like an overwhelming task, unless you tackle the challenge with a clear-headed plan. Randel S. Carlock and John L. Ward provide just such an approach by mapping out the strategies and structures needed to make a family business run smoothly. In so doing, they address family conflict, executive succession, ownership schemes and a host of other issues that can make or break a family business. getAbstract.com highly recommends this book for its practical and applicable methods of striking a balance between the needs of business and the needs of family.
