greater than USD 50 million, 663 are family businesses
• Family businesses in India account for 70% of the total market
capitalisation and 57% of employment
• As they succeed they contribute to the economy of the country
because Family Business contributes 60-70 percent of GDP of
most developed & developing countries. India is no exception..
• The close-knit structure of families, which fosters teamwork
combined with respect to family values and family elders, has
been the key to success of many family businesses

Challenges faced by Family Business
Most of the Business families face unique management challenges
because of the differences in the attitude & aspirations of family
members
As new generations join the family business, it is an enormous
challenge to keep the family & business together. Some sacrifice the
business to keep the families together, while others sacrifice the family
to keep the business
It has been observed that just 13% of the Family business survive till
3rd generation & only 4% go beyond third generation and one third of
business families disintegrate because of generational conflict

Agenda

To understand Indian market, a market survey using an independent surveyor
was done
• The survey covered 35 cities in India studying sample of 200
family members besides 50 family business advisers (like
advocates, chartered accountants who are rendering advice
in their respective area)
• Survey shows that there is a huge demand in India for
Certified Family Business Associates – about 1000 advisors.
However, there are currently hardly 20 advisors in India
• Absence of India based case study and thought leadership.
Body of knowledge is meager.
• Emerging generation is keen to professionalize family
governance
10
Based on the survey finding, we decided to design programs which will focus on the
family specific attributes of management

Short-Term or Modular Programs
As different businesses and individuals have different requirements with respect to their educational and business gaps, they may
not choose to attend programs that are comprehensive in nature. Therefore, in order to provide a learning experience in
niche/specific areas of Family Business, the short-term or modular courses have been designed. These can be availed by
members of Family Owned Businesses as well as Professionals working with Family Firms.
Duration: 1-2 days
4.1. Succession in Family Owned Businesses:
Research on family owned businesses states that less than one-third of family owned businesses are continued by the second
generation when owners (managers) retire, and only half of those make it into the third generation. Though succession planning is
an important process for the ensuring the long-term continuity of the family firm, this aspect is either largely neglected or not
successful.
The founder’s feeling of immortality, the lack or abundance of appropriate successors, the lack of trust in next generation’s
entrepreneurial competences, and the fear of retirement by the manager (founder) are the main reasons why some firms don’t
think about succession (Leach 1991; Kets de Vries 1988; Scase and Goffee 1987). In fact, the CEO’s inability to let go is the
single most cited obstacle to effective succession (Sharma et al. 2001). Moreover, problems within the family can also lead to
failed successions among the family owned companies (Morris et al., 1997).
This course helps understand the process of succession, barriers to it and strategies for effective Succession Planning in the
Family Owned Business.

4.2. Developing Next Generation:
A person will not be really happy in the midst of wealth, finding an enduring sense of satisfaction and meaning,
if as a consequence of having it, his or her unique individuality has gone undeveloped.
- Stephen Rockefeller
The development of Next Generation members in Family Owned Businesses involves:
• Aligning with the family’s core vision, mission and values
• Finding new passion & focus for business
• Developing self-confidence, competence and work ethics
• Discovering hidden strengths and potential
• Developing positive identity with wealth
• Revising strategy as per “Modern” business practices
• Fighting for position–within, across generations
• Acquiring skills and knowledge to make effective financial decisions
This course will help explore the opportunities and focus areas for the development of the Next Generation
members in Family Business.
21
Short-Term or Modular Programs (continued)
4.3. Professionalizing Family Business:
Most often, lack of professionalization amongst family run businesses tends to hamper their growth. Many
family businesses face the challenge of attracting and retaining professionals in the organization. Ultimately
only a set of “loyalists” stay back with the promoters over a period of time. Eventually, promoters are forced to
reward loyalty over competence.
This translates into a vicious cycle where:
• Family Business Owners don’t trust non-family member employees for taking decisions
• Non-family member employees tend to look out for better opportunities
• This in-return validates Family Business Owners perspective that non-family members cannot be trusted
This course helps identify & evolve solutions to overcome the challenges of Professionalizing the Family
Owned Business.
22
Short-Term or Modular Programs (continued)
4.4. Conflict Management & Resolution:
As a business family grows in size, more number of family members get involved in the business with different set of vision and
thought process. Ideological conflicts are therefore bound to happen at some point in time. In many cases, ideological conflicts
arises either due to difference of opinion or lack of communication or ego problems. In addition, conflicts in family businesses also
arise due to generation-gap; older generation's desire to preserve wealth and next generation's aspiration to diversify and grow.
Most often conflicts arise when the third generation comes into the picture. This is also commonly known as the “Third Generation
Jinx”.
This course helps understand and effectively deal with conflicts in Family Business.
4.5. Scaling Up & Expanding Family Business:
According to survey findings by PWC (2012), family businesses, like other businesses, are facing big pressures to start expanding
overseas in order to remain competitive. They are being driven by competitive pressures - or market openings due to innovation -
to get past their instinctual reluctance to avoid excessive risk and are entering into foreign markets.
Many family owned businesses have an aversion to leveraging their balance sheet or mortgaging physical assets which makes
raising growth capital difficult. Moreover, issues of ownership, succession, and the hiring of outside managers and unwillingness
for family members to relocate can present themselves as unique challenges for business expansion.
This course helps understand issues related to competitiveness and expansion for the Family Business and offer perspectives on
overcoming these effectively.
23
Short-Term or Modular Programs (continued)
4.6. Attracting Next Generation to Family Business:
Working in a strong family business can present itself both as a great opportunity or as burden for the next
generation. It is a daunting proposition to take over a company that was led so well by a parent. At the same
time, personal pressure to carry on the family business tradition is often felt. Attracting and engaging the next
generation in the Family Business is hugely dependent on the degree of emotional ownership experienced by
them.
So, how to foster emotional ownership among next generation? How to align the aspirations & passion of Next
Gen family members with the need to successfully lead the family business?
This course helps address the above and explore greater possibilities to attract next generation into the family
business.
24
Family Entrepreneurship
Businesses are characterized by efforts on the part of ownership to balance financial performance with maintenance of family
control and benefits for future generations. This dual focus can complicate the planning and decision-making process.
For family firms to survive and grow, they must pass on the entrepreneurial mindset and capabilities to create new streams of
wealth across many generations- not just pass the business on from one generation to the next. This practice is referred to as
‘transgenerational entrepreneurship’ or more simply, family entrepreneurship.
Topics Covered:
• Introduction to entrepreneurship and new-venture creation
• Managing the entrepreneurial Process
• Entrepreneurial Enterprises
• Conceptual frameworks & tools for identifying entrepreneurial opportunities
• Evaluating attractiveness for investment & commercial viability of the new venture
• Funding strategies
• Developing a realistic Business Plan
• Launching your new venture
In order to create and sustain the new venture, the incubation programme will facilitate the following:
• Review of the business plan
