The Joy And Pain Of Working For A Family Owned Business
The Joy And Pain Of Working For A Family Owned Business
We all know about the Kirima family. Though the saga has cooled off it was not a good sight all. But that is family for you. Unlike friends, you can only work with what ‘God’ has given you.On another note, have you ever wondered how it is to work in a family run business like the one for Kirima?
To be caught in the cross fire when things are not working? Many of us start our careers in small or medium sized firms mostly owned and run by the family.
I went out and interviewed a good friend who has worked in such a situation and this was his candid response.
My life working for the family.
I worked for a small family business for about six years. It had many ups and downs, especially when I was trying to compete for gratitude, amongst all of the family favoritism!It was a Father-Daughter-Son operation, with about ten additional employees. The Son’s name sat proudly over the entrance to the business, but he was NOT a part of it! This left the Father and the Daughter, fighting in the wings, over the direction and the future of their concern.
