The Ownership Project The Family Business Podcast

On this weeks show I am joined by Dr. Bridget Kustin as we discuss The Ownership Project. The project explores $1bn family enterprises and collates what they are doing into a "Toolkit for Responsible Ownership".
The study looks at seven narratives that we often hear about family businesses:
Family Business as a force for goodWe have a long term orientation. We think in generations, not financial quartersFamily owners are uniquely agile Employees prefer working in a family-owned business. Our employees are like family I don't consider the business as something that belongs to me. I consider myself a steward of it for the next generation. We care about our communityShirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three generations
Continuing our series on Sustainability we explore some of these narratives and whether they are true because we tell ourselves they are true, or because we can evidence that they are true.

Support the Show
The podcast is entirely self-funded by me. I am not looking for sympathy as it is something that I love to do and I have a passion for providing great content for family businesses across the world. Some listeners have asked for ways in which they can support the show, be that through reviews, sharing with friends or a donation. As such I have set up a page that outlines all the ways that you can support what I am doing.
