S01E08 One Hundred Fifty Years of Stewardship and Luck With René Ancinas

Although publicly-owned and family-owned businesses have a lot in common, Peter Drucker suggested that when it comes to management, "the family business requires its own and very different rules." Director of the Drucker School Global Family Business Institute Kathleen Fariss hosts this podcast that sheds light on the distinct journey of family-owned businesses through authentic conversations with their leaders. With help from our special guests, we uncover the rules family businesses adhere to that are both binding and beneficial as well as tackle the unique issues and opportunities of family businesses that inform their definition of success.
