Managing the Family Business
Edited by: Linda Glassop and Dianne Waddell (Deakin University, Australia)
Managing the Family
Business is a timely and
thought provoking book that should encourage greater debate about
where family businesses are going and what issues are paramount.
The editors have made a conscious attempt to invite and encourage
academic and industry practitioners to contribute chapters based on
their research and experience as it relates to family business
topics.
