A framework for understanding conflict in family enterprises

Doug Baumoel’s book presents “The Conflict Equation,” a five-concept framework for breaking conflict into component parts. Its subject is the overlap of family relationships, shared wealth, and the work of owning and managing a business together. The discussion distinguishes underlying sources of disagreement from the triggers that bring conflict into the open, and considers why disputes in family-business systems can become especially difficult to resolve. The book is framed for both family-enterprise stakeholders and their advisers, with attention to managing shared ownership across generations.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Family members involved in owning or managing a business together
  • Advisers who work with family enterprises
  • Readers seeking a structured way to examine conflict in shared-wealth settings

Book overview

Deconstructing Conflict draws upon nearly fifteen years of experience in which Doug Baumoel and Blair Trippe have helped scores of enterprising families navigate the challenges of owning and managing together as family. Based upon their groundbreaking methodology known as "The Conflict Equation," the book presents five foundational concepts to help readers deconstruct conflict into its component parts. It will help you understand the reasons that underlie all conflict, what triggers active conflict, and why conflict can be so extreme and intractable in family business systems. This book will arm family business stakeholders and their advisors with the most cutting-edge thinking for achieving generational success in family enterprise.
