THE READER
Who it's for
You are the next generation of a family business: a son, daughter, daughter-in-law or nephew. You are deciding whether to join, what role to take, how to change things without breaking trust, what to do when your father or uncle disagrees, and whether to stay or build your own path. You will sit at the same dinner table with the result for the rest of your life.
INSIDE THE BOOK
What's inside
- How to find the real cause behind falling margins, family arguments and decisions that never get made.
- A Rajkot son who finds the business is not short of godown space. Every large order is waiting for his father's evening review.
- A daughter in Agra whose plan to hire a professional manager stalls until her father and uncle settle what each of them owns and has drawn.
- An overlooked daughter in Madurai who tests whether to leave and start her own business by asking for written orders before she tells her father.
- Worksheets and a scorecard for each of the seven stages, from seeing the real problem to carrying out the decision.
All cases are illustrative, not real people or businesses. On succession, property, shareholding and tax, the book tells you to consult legal and tax advisers.
Questions before you begin
Will it tell me whether to join the family business?
No. It gives you a way to test that decision, and the decision to leave, before you commit to either.
Do I need to read BSI or Your Call first?
No. This book stands on its own. It uses the same seven-stage method as BSI, written for the next generation of family businesses.
Is it legal or tax advice on succession or partition?
No. It helps you decide what you want and in what order. For wills, property, shares and tax, it tells you to consult qualified advisers.
Is there a paperback?
Not yet. It is available now as an e-book.
