"Wars Of Succession" is about the blessings, curses and lessons that family-owned firms offer anyone in business. Family-owned businesses have been a staple of economic growth as long as there have been economies. By some calculations, as many as nine out of ten small businesses start out with some form of family ownership. This means that the dynamics of family business are important to just about everyone. The key issue that closely-held businesses face is succession. What will happen when children come into the picture (or parents leave)? How will the company deal with sibling rivalries, generation gaps, divorces, and other conflicts among owner/managers? In "Wars Of Succession," Roger Fritz considers the problems that face family-owned business and the solutions that work best. He offers lessons that have wide application and uses in-depth case studies to illustrate the good and the bad. Among the goals that "Wars Of Succession" can help achieve are building a business heritage, establishing a consistent ethic, avoiding conflicts and tensions, and leaving a lasting legacy.Fritz, Roger is the author of 'Wars of Succession The Blessings, Curses and Lessons That Family-Owned Firms Offer Anyone in Business', published 1997 under ISBN 9781563431371 and ISBN 1563431378.
