Family firms are a prime source of economic growth. This text addresses, from a clinical perspective, the particular problems and situations family businesses give rise to. It covers topics such as: how existing leadership styles can be adapted to meet the needs of a growing and expanding business; how problems concerning succession and transition should be dealt with; and how the impact of the family on the corporate culture can be managed. At some point most family businesses will face the dilemma of whether they want to remain a family business, given the demands which accompany growth, the difficulties involved in passing on the leadership to the next generation and the problem of how to integrate the values of the family into the corporate culture. This book aims to provide a body of knowledge that will contribute to a better understanding of the psychodynamics of the family firm.
