A Family Business?

The Making of an International Business Elite

Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar

First published in 1989, A Family Business? goes beyond purely national studies of class systems and discussions of the processes of social change in any one country and traces the development of an international elite in Europe. Professor Marceau analyses the micro-strategies developed by both individuals and families to achieve or maintain high positions in the emerging business world. Using a study of young managers from twelve countries, she indicates the extent to which they rely on social, economic and cultural resources provided by families of origin and marriage for success in the high-risk competition for top posts, and she shows how common education, adherence to technocratic managerial and political beliefs, and shared experience of transnational careers are creating a network of 'parallel families' across Europe. She suggests how the emerging European business class is distinctively shaped by its international experience.

In this 2002 textbook, Andrea Colli gives a historical and comparative perspective on family business, examining through time the different relationships within family businesses and among family enterprises, inside different political and institutional contexts. He compares the performance of family businesses with that of other economic organizations, and looks at how these enterprises have contributed to the evolution of contemporary industrial capitalism. Central to his discussion are the reasons for both the decline and persistence of family business, how it evolved historically, the different forms it has taken over time, and how it has contributed to the growth of single economies. The book summarises previous research into family business, and situates many aspects of family business - such as their strategies, contribution, failure and decline - in an economic, social, political and institutional context. It will be of key interest to students of economic history and business studies.

Building Family Business Champions provides a theoretically sound and practical framework for understanding the challenges that family businesses face. Drawing on three decades of consulting with more than 250 companies, their own experience running a family-owned firm, and sound research, Eric G. Flamholtz and Yvonne Randle explain that the success of these companies hinges upon the dual management of family functionality and the company's infrastructure. They present a set of managerial tools for planning, structuring the business, measuring performance, and managing culture. After laying this groundwork, they attend to issues that uniquely pertain to these companies, such as succession and the challenges of familial dysfunction. Finally, the book offers a set of short self-assessments that can be used in any family business. Richly illustrated with stories of companies at various stages of growth from around the globe, this book provides a comprehensive guide for building businesses that thrive from generation to generation.
