Stewardship In Your Family Enterprise: Developing Responsible Family Leadership Across Generations

This book offers practical guidance for families moving across generations by sharing practices, skills and activities that can help them along this path. The 50 lessons within can each be read independently, as the family seeks help in dealing with a particular aspect of succession, family conflict, selling a family business, selecting and developing next generation leadership or helping their children manage the benefits of their family wealth by becoming stewards of the family resources. We looks the the potential "wealth" in the family as more than just financial, including spiritual, human, family and societal capital to sustain the family and leave a legacy in the family and for the community.
