The last 10 years have been a period of extraordinary change for law firms. The rapid growth of corporate law firms and the emergence of global mega-firms have strained the traditional partnership model of management. Some managers of law firms are appalled at the creeping "corporatism" that they fear may result. However, a growing number believe that it is time to move on and adopt more contemporary forms of structure and management.

English | February 23rd, 2024 | ISBN: 0231210671 | 336 pages | True EPUB | 74.41 MB
What roles did Americans play in the expanding global empires of the nineteenth century? Thomas M. Larkin examines the Hong Kong-based Augustine Heard & Company, the most prominent American trading firm in treaty-port China, to explore the ways American elites at once made and were made by British colonial society. Following the Heard brothers throughout their firm’s rise and decline, The China Firm reveals how nineteenth-century China’s American elite adapted to colonial culture, helped entrench social and racial hierarchies, and exploited the British imperial project for their own profit as they became increasingly invested in its political affairs and commercial networks.

The Family in Business The Dynamics of the Family Owned Firm (Strategic Management Collection)


Free Download Bernard Liebowitz, "The Family in Business: The Dynamics of the Family Owned Firm (Strategic Management Collection)"
English | 2011 | ISBN: 1606492780 | EPUB | pages: 150 | 0.4 mb
Family-owned businesses (FOBs) are a breed unto themselves. Though they share many features in common with other business models, they possess unique traits that clearly differentiate them. Similarly, though consultation to FOBs is in many respects what other businesses experience when seeking assistance, those features that set FOB consultation apart are so distinctive that failure to honor and understand them can (and does) too often lead to disaster. The needs of those family members seeking consultation share a portrait in some ways similar to those in non-FOBs, but in a majority of situations are so distinctive and potentially explosive that disaster lurks on the edges, ready to appear if not respected. The audience for this book is both consultants to FOBs and family members who are looking for such assistance. Both require knowledge of each other’s spheres of experience and perspective for effective consultation to occur – for the consultant, an awareness of family dynamics as intertwined with family business; for family members, a clarification of what can be expected and delivered. In addition to the interface between family dynamics and the family’s business, we will explore the key tasks in FOB consultation: succession planning, selection of the successor, conflict resolution, defining the role of family members in the business, how to involve the management team in succession planning, determining what happens after succession and building a board of advisors.
