Partnerships and family businesses face many common challenges in creating value that can be inherited by future leadership, and this book provides solutions to most of these issues. James Oren Hach, a management expert and consultant, and the grandson of the founder of Oren Mills Photography, offers insightful perspectives on how partnerships and family businesses can create a bright future. In practical and inspiring language, he provides proven management tools through vivid examples from his client companies and his own family businesses.
