"...masterfully addresses the polarities which confront families in business." -John A. Warnick, Esq., founder, Purposeful Planning Institute

"This book will endure for many years..."-Janet M. Harvey, CEO, inviteCHANGE, author of From Tension to Transformation: A Leader's Guide to Generative Change

"This book should be an arm's length away for every family business advisor and business-owning family member." -Kristin Keffeler, chief learning officer, author of The Myth of the Silver Spoon: Navigating Family Wealth & Creating an Impactful Life, and co-author of Wealth 3.0: The Future of Family Wealth Advising

Should you fire your deadweight brother-in-law or comply with your mom's pleas to give him a raise? Should you pay all your kids the same, based on the market, or based on how many of your grandkids they raise? These are the questions family business leaders confront due to the opposing expectations of the family and the business.

Hug of War offers a new path forward. When the competing impulses of the family mindset and the business mindset are embraced as a polarity, leaders transcend either-or thinking and craft better solutions that embrace the best of both mindsets.

With stories that take you into the hearts and heads of real-life family business leaders, Hug of War offers a bridge to greater harmony in your family, greater clarity in your mind, and greater peace in your heart.
