Crafting Time in Family Firms
This book explores how family-owned businesses live and act across multiple temporal horizons—past, present, and future—and how those horizons shape strategy, identity, and everyday organizing. The book’s motivation is to offer a comprehensive, practice-relevant lens on how family firms uniquely experience and manage the tensions of time: honoring historical legacies without becoming captive to them, meeting present operational realities without myopia, and opening credible futures without severing recognizability. Throughout, the authors show how this dynamic interplay is decisive for long-term sustainability and renewal in enterprising families.
