Recommendation
Imagine the conflict, arguments and drama around almost every holiday dinner table, then imagine them played out around a conference table and you’ll see the issues that arise in family firms. Emotional, volatile relationships can erode even the most solid business. Larry and Laura Colin, who worked together in a family company before it was sold, use their first-hand experiences to show you how to avoid sacrificing your relationships on the altar of the family firm and vice versa. They look at the characters who populate many family firms, including “Dad the Decider,” “The Hard-Charging Son” and “Mr. & Mrs. Inc.” Although their insights are just one step beyond common sense, at least you don’t need a business degree to understand the conversational text. getAbstract recommends this to readers who must practice nepotism as an art form, working with bosses, colleagues and employees who are also close-knit kin.
