There are more family firms than any other type of business in the world. This book is about their uniqueness, their opportunities and their challenges. It explains how owners and families can develop business strategies to make the most of their opportunities, and governance strategies to minimize the cost of the challenges. Chapter 1 provides a first insight into the Family Business Mop, a powerful analytical tool to guide families in their strategic choices.
