Summary

Strategies for Longevity in Family Firms provides an overview of the strategic challenges faced by family firms within a European setting, and of the most effective managerial approaches to confront them. The authors use their own wealth of experience to suggest how family business strategies can be rigorously analyzed and successfully designed and implemented. This volume uses lively examples drawn from real cases to illustrate all key decisions addressed by family firms. These range from choices in competitive and corporate strategy, financial, organizational and governance structure, generational succession and change processes.
