Balancing Compliance and Sustainability in Family Businesses: Strategies for the Future

This book provides a comprehensive and applied vision of integrating compliance and sustainability into family business management. Implementing these practices demands commitment, long-term vision, and cultural change but brings key benefits in reputation, risk reduction, and investment attraction, making them essential for sustainable success. Family businesses balance company and family interests, often shaping management and control around family needs. However, the adoption of sustainability and compliance remains low due to the lack of systematic implementation. Key aspects include stakeholder involvement, resource management, sustainable policies, compliance with environmental laws, corporate social responsibility, governance, and business succession. This manual guides family business managers in turning challenges into opportunities, ensuring continuity and competitiveness. It also inspires consultants and academics committed to these vital enterprises.
