Book Review: Rajiv G. Agarwal, Family Business Management

Abstract

The family business scenario is currently going through a transformation. With the increase in nuclear families, the multigenerational concept of families has taken a backseat. This phenomenon has given rise to a rather profound question: What happens to business succession? How will family businesses fare in the future? How will governance be done? These questions are answered in the book titled Family Business Management written by Rajiv G. Agarwal, a noted professor in strategy and family business at S. P. Jain Institute of Management and Research, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. The book is a comprehensive take on the ordeals of the family business, and it touches upon the different dimensions of the family business.
