Our Family Business Course:  Key aspects for its competitiveness and durability ( Twelfth Edition) will begin next February 7th with Francisco Vallejo (CEO of Pinturas Isaval) who will provide us with information on La familia propietaria y sus roles en la dirección y el gobierno de la empresa (The owner family and their roles in the management and governance of the company).

The course is aimed at all undergraduate and graduate students in all fields, students with entrepreneurial vocation or members of business families and professionals, and people interested in knowing the problems of family business in our country. Its purpose is to inform about what a family business is, which agents intervene in it, what the problems and strengths of this type of business are, as well as to understand the succession process, the typical conflicts in these companies, as well as the inter-generational relay and the problem of leadership.

Students will be able to learn and assimilate a set of solid and innovative concepts from which to understand more clearly the strategic, organisational, human, economic-financial and legal issues that are inescapably present in Family Businesses.  The course will study, under the guidance of professors and professionals specialised in this problem type, and from an interdisciplinary and practical perspective, the great issues of succession, changes of generation, the incorporation and remuneration of family members, the role of professionals or the creation of a family protocol that orders and regulates all relations between the family and the company.
