" Despite the number of business failures each year, the message
Success and Survival in the Family-Owned Business brings you is that
entrepreneurial and family-owned enterprises are alive and thriving
today- and may well prove to be the business wave of the future ! "

" Here you'll find the family-owned business covered from A to Z-
its strengths ... its weaknesses ... its problem areas ...
and how to make it succeed.
And numerous case histories- featuring such companies as American Can,
Oscar Mayer, and Great Lakes Paper, and individuals like Henry Ford,
Howard Deering Johnson, and Cyrus McCormick-
make the book as interesting as it is informative. "

" About 98 percent of all U.S. corporations are privately owned and operated, and the majority of these are family-owned business- with all the emotions, ties, complications, frictions, and sensitivities common to families mixed inextricably with regular business issues and practices.
Yet despite this prevalence of family enterprises, only a handful of the hundreds of business management books now in print address these particular operations or attempt to deal with their unique problems. "

" Here at last is a timely, comprehensive, detailed work that thoroughly studies the family-owned business- and all the joys, dreams, pride, sweat, and tears that go into it- whether it's a firm, farm, or factory, a huge multinational corporation or a Mom and Pop corner store. "

" Right at the start the book points out that although family plus business is a volatile mixture- and an economic form not easily understood or accommodated in the modern business world- one should not jump to the conclusion that family-owned operations are always beset by troubles while other business entities get by friction-free.
Rather, it shows that the family enterprise is often stronger and more successful because of close family loyalty and support.
Moreover, the book provides evidence that enables family business operators to recognize that many of their business problems also exist in other family operations- and it provides practical help and encouragement toward solving them. "

" Recognizing that business decisions in family operations are seldom based solely on profit and loss- and that advancement and opportunity within the enterprise are usually more accessible to family members than to outsiders- the book takes a close, realistic look at a variety of family-owned businesses of all kinds and sizes.
It presents numerous case histories and examples, including such well-known firms as Howard Johnson, Neiman-Marcus, Pillsbury, Mars, American Can, Ford, Oscar Mayer, and the Los Angeles Rams and famous entrepreneurs like Rockefeller and McCormick.
And it traces the history of family in business from the Jeffersonian Ideal to Horatio Alger as he survives today. "

" Among the topics treated in detail are:

  • When- and why- nepotism can be beneficial.
  • Where the entrepreneurs who build family business come from ...
    their talents, abilities, and ambitions ...
    what drives them.
  • How the American extended family largely survives today in the form of the family-owned business
  • Making the transition from entrepreneur to manager.
  • Succession problems- and ways to handle them.
  • When experience is the worst teacher.
  • Is the family business an endangered species ? "

" From statistics on the industries in which small family businesses are concentrated- to special tests readers can take to measure their ability to succeed as entrepreneurs and operators of family-owned enterprises- Success and Survival in the Family-Owned Business provides today's most thorough, in-depth coverage of this vital and often emotionally charged area. "
