Description:
What makes some family businesses succeed in remaining successful for many generations? How do they survive the inevitable setbacks in the market, internal conflicts and succession problems? Excellent family businesses are founded on a functional entrepreneurial family with a distinct identity. They are not dependent on one brilliant idea, they are mainly characterised by their indestructible entrepreneurial spirit and use management models in which balance and dynamism prevail.
How family businesses and their directors can achieve this is what this book is about. The authors describe thirteen very diverse examples of well-known Dutch family businesses, each with their own peculiarities that arise from the identity of the family and the environment in which the business operates. Based on this diversity, they make it clear that detailed rules for the organization of the board are less suitable for the family business and they propose 10 principles as an alternative. In thirteen essays, which can also be read separately, the most important administrative themes that play a role within the family business are further elaborated.
The book offers important insights and practical advice and tools for family members, (external) managers, advisors and students.
Excelling as a family business has been nominated for the Ooa Book of the Year Award 2009.
