Praise for Prescriptions for a Healthy Family Business: "This is the most electric read of any book on business I've ever read! My wife, after reading it, felt she knew me better than at any other point in our 39 years of marriage. We purchased copies for both of our sons. Both said they finally understood my business. The book particularly helped me understand myself and the way I do business and is a must read for other managers in our company. It's front and center in my personal library from now on!"

The Family Business Institute's case study presentation of "Meet the Penmaens" was the most interactive session we have had in five years of programming. Wayne Rivers provided just the right amounts of direction and dialogue to the process to encourage audience participation to the fullest. The program was a hit because the business families in the room embraced the frank and open comments of the Penmaen Family about the business and each other. And, you could actually see them contemplating the family dynamics in their own family business as they watched and listened to the interviews. "Meet the Penmaens" was highly rated by our attendees, and I would recommend it to other Directors.

"We were very pleased with your program.  All of us in family businesses are very busy and overwhelmed with tending to our customers and on operations.  None of us are truly addressing the important things associated with continuing our businesses into the future.  The Family Business Institute helped teach our members how to move their family businesses forward to the next generation without family conflict.  It was an excellent program, and other groups should seriously consider this program for their members."
