Managing for the Long Run

Managing for the Long Run

Lessons in Competitive Advantage from Great Family Businesses

Daniel Miller, Isabelle Le Breton-Miller

615 pages, parution le 18/02/2005

Résumé

Fidelity, Hallmark, Michelin, and Wal-Mart are renowned industry powerhouses with long leadership track records. Yet, these celebrated companies are united by another factor not generally equated with competitive success: They are all family-controlled businesses. Although many view the hallmarks of family businesses--stable strategies, clan cultures, and unencumbered family ownership--as weaknesses, Danny Miller and Isabelle Le Breton-Miller argue that it is these very characteristics that create formidable competitive advantages for many such firms.

Managing for the Long Run draws from a worldwide study of enduring, family-run organizations--including Cargill, Timken, L.L. Bean, The New York Times, and IKEA--to reveal their unconventional success strategies and how these strategies can be adopted by and applied to any organization. Miller and Le Breton-Miller show how four driving passions of family-run firms--command, continuity, community, and connection--give rise to a set of practices that defy modern management thinking yet ensure a company's long-term competitive advantage. Outlining how these practices can enhance strategic efforts from operations to brand leadership to innovation, this book shows what every company must do to manage for the long run.

Danny Miller is a professor of strategy at HEC Montreal and Chair of Family Enterprise & Strategy at the University of Alberta. Isabelle Le Breton-Miller is a human resources consultant and senior research associate at the Center for Entrepreneurship and Family Enterprise at the University of Alberta.
