*Details of this course, which seems interesting and relevant (possibly to many in Goa) came my way this morning. Just thought of sharing it with a note to say that Errol D'Souza -- who was a young lecturer in Goa University in the late1980s, when I was a student -- is currently director of the prestigious Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIMA).

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: IIM Ahmedabad, Executive Education <exedi...@iima.ac.in> Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2020 at 12:49 Subject: IIM Ahmedabad: Programme on Family Businesses: Organisation, Strategies, Internationalisation and Succession View this email in your browser <https://mailchi.mp/a61f17c6c46c/iim-ahmedabad-programme-onfamily-businesses-organisation-strategies-internationalisation-and-succession-5583249?e=9a92e44647> Dear Sir/Madam, We are glad to announce our Programme "*Family Businesses: Organisation, Strategies, Internationalisation and Succession"* during *September 23-25, 2020* at *IIMA Campus*. Two-thirds of all businesses in India are family-owned and controlled. Yet, there has been scant attention to the special characteristics of family businesses that require reconciling family needs, hopes, wishes with the demands of managing a successful business. We invite participation from family business owners and managers interested in building upon and leveraging distinct strengths of family businesses. Here is an opportunity to think through and develop appropriate solutions to respond to the complexities, uncertainties, and challenges in family businesses for sustainable growth, creation of wealth across generations and attracting and retaining professional talent. The programme is designed on the basis of knowledge from research and practices all over the world, including IIMA research. Family business CEOs would also be sharing their experiences. This Programme is a platform for key role-holders to bring issues of concern and work on them. The themes chosen cover the four key topics we know are of particular interest to family businesses. Trade-offs between growth potential and control present eternal challenges to family businesses in how they organise. The choices between strategies for growth and transformation bring up tensions between family members and professional talent. Family businesses are growing globally at unprecedented rates faster than non-family businesses. And no issue is potentially more toxic than the transition from one generation to another. You might like to avail the benefits of the early bird and multiple nominations. The last date for receiving completed nomination forms is *September 09, 2020. *The last date for the Early Bird Discount is* August 4, 2020. * If you have any questions then please get in touch with *Mr. Mustafa Burhani, Programme Coordinator *at* must...@iima.ac.in <must...@iima.ac.in>, *Mobile:* +91 87588 00387*.
