FAMILIAS EMPRESARIAS EN LA SOCIEDAD DEL CAMBIO
Description
It is estimated that, over the next 25 years, 50% to 60% of family business wealth will be transferred to a new generation globally. This will take place in a context defined by technological disruption, globalization, and continuous geopolitical and economic challenges, where family businesses face unique hurdles to ensure business continuity.
To help navigate this path, Manuel Bermejo presents Family Businesses in the Era of Change, with the goal of “supporting both family businesses and other key stakeholders in the inevitable processes of change they must face, both at the corporate and family levels,” as he states in the book’s introduction.
With a spirit of constructive challenge, Family Businesses in the Era of Change introduces the concept of Family Business 4.0, those businesses that boldly tackle the profound transformations required in governance and management of both the family and the business in today’s era of complexity, uncertainty, and challenges.
Ultimately, this is an essential guide for addressing the challenges faced not only by the family business community but also by professionals, academics, and leaders interested in understanding and supporting the opportunities and challenges facing family businesses.
Manuel Bermejo has a triple connection to family businesses. Genetically, he is the son and grandson of successful entrepreneurs and has been immersed in the unique reality of family businesses since childhood. Academically, he has studied family businesses as a tenured professor at IE Business School since 1992, as an international speaker, and as a visiting professor at prestigious business schools. Dr. Bermejo is regarded as one of the leading experts in family business. Over his more than three decades of professional experience, he has advised numerous entrepreneurial families.
Currently, he serves as the president of The Family Advisory Board, a global firm where he acts as an expert advisor to many family businesses. The Family Business Influencers Global Power List has recognized him as the third most influential family business expert on social media worldwide and the most influential in Spanish. Throughout his career, he has received numerous awards for both his academic excellence and his efforts to support and advocate for family businesses.
