Managing a family corporation presents a unique set of issues and challenges, borne out of the interplay between family dynamics and business systems. Business goals may at times run counter to the objective of promoting healthy family relationships (and vice-versa). Because of this, only few family businesses survive from one generation to the next.

The Asian Institute of Management is pleased to announce the:

In small discussion groups (called ’can groups’) the participants will present and defend their analysis and decisions. The entire class and the professor will discuss the findings of each group.
