Book Synopsis Sustainable Genealogy by : Richard Hite
Download or read book Sustainable Genealogy written by Richard Hite and published by Genealogical Publishing Company. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a lot of textbooks that describe how to find your ancestors; this one by Richard Hite clarifies how not to. In short, "Sustainable Genealogy" explains how to avoid the traps many family historians can fall into. Whether it's a proud family legend, a venerable publication, or the claims of an Internet family tree, the unsubstantiated genealogical source is like a house of sticks before the Big Bad Wolf--it won't stand up. As Mr. Hite demonstrates in this collection of case studies, many are the "oral traditions that have fallen by the wayside under the lens of careful research in primary sources and more recently, DNA testing."

Book Synopsis Building a Sustainable Family Office by : Scott Saslow
Download or read book Building a Sustainable Family Office written by Scott Saslow and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2024-07-09 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Create and maintain a high performance family office and build a legacy Family offices are business entities built to primarily support a family’s wealth. Several trillions of dollars of wealth are concentrated in a small number of these offices globally. Yet often, family offices are not successfully passed on from one generation to another, creating disruption for family members, the ecosystem of providers, and broader society. Scott Saslow is a family office principal who has experienced the building—and rebuilding—of his family office many times. Unlike many family office books written by non-family advisors, this book is written by an insider who knows what worked and what didn’t. Along with the expertise of dozens of family office principals and top service professionals, Saslow shows how to • identify a unique and compelling purpose for the family office, which engages the next generation; • manage some of the interpersonal challenges inherent when working with family members; • create high performance family offices that make a difference for family and the broader society. Written for both the new and experienced family office principal, Building a Sustainable Family Office will inform and inspire with an “insider’s view” of the opportunities and challenges of building a family office that lasts.
Book Synopsis Pioneering Family Firms’ Sustainable Development Strategies by : Pramodita Sharma
Download or read book Pioneering Family Firms’ Sustainable Development Strategies written by Pramodita Sharma and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2021-03-26 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the sustainable development journey of 15 business families committed to using their enterprises as a force of societal good. In turn, each family reaps benefits of high economic returns, while contributing to society and environment. The youngest family firm is in its 20s, while there are others over 100 years of age. Size, industry, locations vary. But all these business families share a deep shared commitment towards sustainable development, control over strategic decision-making in their firms and trans-generational continuity intentions. Family values embed their enterprises with a strong sense of purpose to achieve their chosen sustainable development goals. Professionalized systems and processes foster the development of capabilities, and partnerships with a variety of stakeholders ensure the simultaneous achievement of social, environmental and profitability goals.
Book Synopsis Sustainable Family Farming and Yeoman Ideals by : Rena R. Henderson
Download or read book Sustainable Family Farming and Yeoman Ideals written by Rena R. Henderson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the frame of family farming, this book offers a longitudinal study of the Castra district in North-West Tasmania from first European settlement to the end of the twentieth century. It draws upon historical sources for yeomanry characteristics from Britain, Canada, the USA, New Zealand and Australian mainland colonies to show how these characteristics were persistently supportive of family farming. Surveying farming communities over several generations, this book explores a range of topics including colonial surveying practices, settler families’ motivation, attributes and demographics, the role of Methodism, the ways children were inculcated into yeoman farming enterprises, the role of women as companionate wives and the political participation of farmers in the public sphere. The book also offers a new perspective of three commonly held myths of settlement failure: the settlement of retired Anglo-Indian military and civil officers in the 1870s, the settlement of soldiers on small farms after the Great War and the claims that the ideal of yeoman family farming was anachronistic to capitalist commodity production. The book draws from a wide selection of previously underused primary source materials, including oral histories from current and past residents, to provide a comprehensive overview of an important aspect of rural Australian history. The book is a valuable contribution to Australian historiography, and will be a useful resource for students and scholars of rural history, social history, environmental history, colonialism and sustainable agriculture.

Book Synopsis Family business goal, sustainable supply chain management, and platform economy: a theory based review & propositions for future research by : Rawa Alwadani
Download or read book Family business goal, sustainable supply chain management, and platform economy: a theory based review & propositions for future research written by Rawa Alwadani and published by Infinite Study. This book was released on with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article reviews important and diverse issues that can affect family business goals, which scholars can consider in their future research. A systematic review was undertaken in three different areas: family businesses goals, sustainable supply chain and platform economy. The three topics were reviewed in terms of the theories utilised in the studied articles. Two theories (institutional and social exchange) were found to be common across the three topics. As a result, family businesses goals, sustainable supply chain and platform economy were reviewed through the lenses of the institutional and social exchange theories. We conclude by discussing directions for future research and other promising approaches, so as to inform the investigation concerning family businesses, and the expected contemporary goals to pursue in relation to sustainable supply chain and platform economy.

Book Synopsis Designing and Implementing HR Management Systems in Family Businesses by : Gnan, Luca
Download or read book Designing and Implementing HR Management Systems in Family Businesses written by Gnan, Luca and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-01-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human resource management (HRM) systems are an under-researched area in family business studies even though they arguably play an important role. To exploit their entrepreneurial orientation and achieve their goals, family firms must be willing to adopt a specific configuration of the organizational variables to succeed in the competitive environment of today. Designing and Implementing HR Management Systems in Family Businesses is a pivotal reference source that focuses on HRM in family businesses aiming at clarifying what HRM topics are relevant in family firms given their distinctive features, what the role of HR choices in family firms is, and how they differ in these organizations. While highlighting topics such as quality of work, generational workforce, and leadership management, this publication explores the relationship between HRM systems and the organization as well as why certain theories would be more dominant for family firms. This book is ideally designed for family businesses, managers, executives, entrepreneurs, business professionals, academicians, students, and researchers.
Book Synopsis Family Firms and Institutional Contexts by : Giorgia Maria D'Allura
Download or read book Family Firms and Institutional Contexts written by Giorgia Maria D'Allura and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Family firms represent over 90 per cent of businesses globally, and play a significant role in the economies of many nations. This innovative book takes an interdisciplinary, cross-national approach to the study of family firms as institutions as well as the relationship between family firms and external institutions. In doing so, it demonstrates the impact of these interactions both on the firms and institutions themselves and on the wider economic context. Featuring in-depth analysis of original research, chapters take both theoretical and empirical approaches to explore the family firm as an organization, and include several key case studies. At a micro level, the social and cultural unit of the family and its behaviour is investigated, and at a macro level, external institutional contexts are examined to explain and theorise firms' behaviours and strategies, covering areas such as innovation, competitiveness and reputation. The book provides important conceptual insights and critical empirical research, as well as ideas for future research agendas. Family Firms and Institutional Contexts will be a critical read for scholars and doctoral students in business and management, particularly those with an interest in family firms. Policymakers and practitioners in these areas will also find its insights of practical relevance"--
