The authors identify that this is not as easy as the endeavor to bring two social systems together with contradicting logic (family and business) leads to many dangerous pitfalls. This book presents outcomes of a unique research project in which family managers of eleven of the oldest and largest German family businesses, at least the fourth generation, met for more than three years on a regular basis and presented the essence of their family governance structures to each other and to the authors. It was a joint ?learning journey? that admits identifying twelve core questions that these families had been answering to keep up the relationship between family and business successfully over generations. Obviously, there is no ?right? answer to these questions. The key to success is rather engaging the families in a process to find out their own answers and make them aware of the ?two sides?: being a family is different from being a business family. 410 0$aManagement for professionals. 606 $aFamily-owned business enterprises 606 $aDomestic relations 606 $aPsychology, Industrial 606 $aCommercial law 615 0$aFamily-owned business enterprises. 615 0$aDomestic relations. 615 0$aPsychology, Industrial. 615 0$aCommercial law. 676 $a658.04 700 $aSchlippe$b Arist von$01259626 702 $aRu?sen$b Tom A 702 $aGroth$b Torsten 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483645003321 996 $aThe two sides of the business family$92918837 997 $aUNINA
