Description

Family-owned businesses are a predominant form of business organization in the United States, yet such businesses tend to have relatively short life spans, often limited to the working life of the founder-owner. The author, an educator and expert in family businesses, describes the character and life cycle of the family business and offers guidance in two crucial areas: strategic business planning and planning the family's role in the business and its future. Ward offers an able analysis of these factors, providing sound advice to those involved with family businesses. Recommended. Elin B. Christianson, Library Consultant, Hobart, Ind. -Library Journal.
