    More Truth Than Many of Us Want to Admit
  

*by R***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 15, 2004*

As a family business counselor and consumate reader, I continually look for new materials that can help clients--family members and non-family managers--better understand the family business enterprises in which they are employed...or enmeshed.  The title of this book turned me off.  I know of no family business that can avoid the "socalled 7 deadly sins."  Family baggage is part of family business.  Nonetheless, I recommend the book.  My usual use of the book is education of non-family managers who work for family business.  My favorite reading references for professional managers are by John L. Ward:  Keeping the Family Business Healthy, and his revised, expanded update, Strategic Planning for the Family Business.  Family members may be willing to read the book, although I have limited experience with that.  I would refer them to books like Working With The Ones You Love by Dennis Jaffe.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Don't buy the other family business books...just this one.
  

*by H***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 15, 2016*

I bought 3-4 books on family business, as we were experiencing some challenges in succession and estate planning.  I felt that none of them really dug into the heart of the issues that make family businesses fail, or just downright unenjoyable.  This really digs into the psychology and the pitfalls to avoid.  It's REALLY direct, especially towards the owners/parents who must eventually step aside, although it has plenty of warnings and admonishments for the next gen.I thought it was bold, and said what needed to be said.  I immediately bought 4 copies. I recommend it over all the others.  Especially the ones with the boring covers all written by the same authors - the info is trite, obvious, and largely feels like the role of women is in the 60's...but this book is different.  Highly recommend.  I wish my family had read it years ago.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    buy it, read it, have everyone in your fam biz read it...EARLY - before there is a crisis.
  

*by H***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 5, 2017*

I don't know what I can say about this, except that I ordered about 4 family biz books at once, and this was the only one that was worth it.  Totally accurate.  Bought in the middle of a family biz crisis, and wish I had bought it a year prior.
