Description:

Family businesses are an important force in the United States economy; they employ more than 50% of the workforce, account for nearly 50% of the gross national product and represent more than one-third of the Fortune 500. These businesses can be found in all sizes and every industry. Family businesses are a combination of very different organizations with very different social dyna- mics and synergies. This creates strengths, weaknesses, opportu- nities, difficulties, rewards and conflicts that are unique to them. This course is designed to be participatory. Besides lec- tures, class time will be devoted to discussions of the daily topic, case studies and reading, interaction with guest speakers, and in-class negotiation, role playing and conflict resolution exercises.
