Abstract

[Founders of family dynasties and family businesses are a special breed. Often, as various examples in this book show, they are visionary people with strong characters. They seem to have a need to succeed both in launching their businesses and in making them different from others. Henry Ford had a vision: everyone should be able to afford a car. At the time, his foresight seemed odd, but ultimately, he turned out to be right. Ruben Rausing, the founder of Tetra Pak, and Walt Disney had both a vision—create a whole new market where none existed before—and the determination to develop it.]
