DURHAM, N.H. - The University of New Hampshire Center for Family
Business will hold its 10th anniversary luncheon celebration and
program “Understanding and Managing Intergenerational Issues
in Planning for the Future,” Wednesday, Nov. 5, 2003, at the
Bedford Village Inn in Bedford.
Building on a previous program in which each generation shared
its perspectives and needs with the other, this program will explore
ways for families to manage the differences and potential conflicts.
Stephen Fink, professor emeritus of organizational behavior at
the Whittemore School of Business and Economics, will facilitate
the program. Fink also is a faculty advisor to the Center for Family
Business.
The day begins with a continental breakfast at 8 a.m., followed
by the program at 8:30 a.m. During the luncheon, members will look
back over the past 10 years and celebrate their successes through
the years. Members and sponsors who have supported the program since
the center's beginning will be honored, and all family businesses
that have been members for five years or more will be recognized.
Guests may attend on a one-time trial for $125 per person/ $250
per family. To register for this program, please call Barbara Draper
at (603) 862-1107.
The Center for Family Business is sponsored by Pierce Atwood, Genus
Resources, Baker Newman & Noyes, and MassMutual Financial Group,
and is co-sponsored by the Whittemore School of Business and Economics
and the Division of Continuing Education. The Center helps families
successfully transfer leadership and ownership, resolve conflict
and improve communication, achieve and sustain profitability, run
successful family meetings, bring family members into the business,
learn effective family communication skills, and enjoy working together.
