"Fascinating. What a great insight for anyone involved in a multi-generational family business. Clearly written, full of helpful observations – and occasionally it brought a tear to my eye."

Not sure which one?
However you read it, the stories are the same.
Somewhere among them you might find yourself saying:
"I thought that was just us."
The stories were only half of it.
Only in a Family Business is sixty stories about what I saw — in my own family's business, and in hundreds of others since.
What it doesn't tell you is what sat underneath them. Why the same conversation happens in a different decade with different names attached. Why the pattern repeats even when everyone involved is trying their best.
That took me twenty-five years to work out, and it became the second book.
IGNITION
The invisible system behind how we think, feel and behave — and how to change what happens next.
