Family Business Primer
Masters Series by WeTeachMe
Family businesses and the generational legacy they carry are essential to the way we function. Managing a family business includes managing what the business needs to thrive, managing what the family needs/ wants as a whole, and managing what each individual family member needs/ wants to thrive (it's like three full-time jobs). You may be a problem solver but this three-way dilemma is an ongoing issue that you have to deal with on a daily basis. Let those who've dealt with it and succeeded help you do the same.
