Understanding Family Business

'The key to family business success'

Understanding Family Business is an E-zine designed to help families in business together

Our primary mission is to encourage our UFB subscribers to take a few minutes, on a regular basis, to reflect on the "why's and what for's" that go into building a successful family business.

Understanding Family Business is designed to be a digest of important tips, articles and success strategies written by Family Business Experts.

For many of our family business subscribers, Understanding Family Business is an important CONVERSATION STARTER - a way to promote discussion of important family business issues. This approach works well when each member of the family has their own subscription. UFB is delivered to their individual e-mail addresses. " What did you think about the tip on ......." becomes a reason to begin a conversation that could profoundly affect the family and the business.

Our web site is the highest ranked family business resource on the Internet. Information and strategies galore - but way too much info to be absorbed in just a few visits. Understanding Family Business acts as a TIMELY REMINDER about specific articles and strategies. For instance we won't publish in UFB the entire interview we did with Adam Bellow author of the best selling book IN DEFENSE OF NEPOTISM - that is on our web site. UFB helps us COMMUNICATE to you that new info is available and waiting for you at our web site!

UFB is not just for families in business. Many subscribers are professional service providers who want to improve the level of service they provide to their family business clients. By learning more about family business dynamics, these professionals are able to do a better job in communicating with their family business clients.

Another subscriber segment are executives working in larger sized corporations. They are concerned about what they will do when they retire - or get forced out. For many of these corporate-bound execs, the idea of having their own business and being able to share their business knowledge and experience with their kids and grandkids is a life-long dream. But that dream of working with family can quickly turn into a nightmare because they lack working knowledge about family business dynamics. For these corporate types, UFB is a great tool that enables them to be better prepared when they start their own family business.

Family Businesses represent a huge segment of the GDP - and getting bigger. As Family businesses grow they are hiring larger numbers of non-family execs. Executives and senior level managers who have a better understanding of family business dynamics will be more effective as they take positions of leadership in family-owned businesses.
