About the course
The vast majority of India's businesses are owned and run by families. And the fast-changing business landscape means that women are taking over the reins of family businesses in increasing numbers, challenging the existing dynamic and blazing a trail as effective businesswomen both in operational, and leadership positions. Managing a family business, however, is not without its challenges and women in particular face significant hurdles as they enter this world. Your success in overcoming these hurdles is predicated on your ability to reconcile your responsibilities to your business and family with your unique perspectives in a constructive way that benefits all.
