All organizations face daily challenges due to the interplay of business needs and the needs of all people involved. When that organization is a family business an added layer of psychological complexity is added to the mix. Family issues can be subtle or overpowering, overt or covert, and can be the hallmark of either the success or the failure of the enterprise. Management psychologist Dr. Paul Powers grew up in and worked in a second generation family business.
