Sustaining Family Businesses: The Essentials by Dr. Adil Alzarooni is a well researched book, with study cases on family firms that had endured and lasted for centuries and others that were only for a generation.
Pity that I didn’t get this book several years back. It would have helped me a lot. But now that I got my hands in a copy, I’ll take what can help me and learn and try to improve.
