Make Change Your Family Business Tradition (Family Business Leadership Series)

Family business leaders of the past could often guarantee decades of success built on a single, long-lived strategic plan. But the current rapid rate of change makes ongoing success an infinitely more difficult challenge. What works today is passé tomorrow. In Make Change Your Family Business Tradition, those involved in or with a family firm will learn how to: build and preserve a foundation for constant renewal; modify the company’s culture while preserving its values; recognize and overcome the inhibitors to change; adapt traditions to contemporary realities; develop characteristics of an effective change leader; respect the past while embracing the future; encourage and make room for the next generation’s changes; gain family and employee commitment to change...and much more.
