Welcome to Family Business Life

Mike O’Malley is a counselor to family business who for 20 years has consulted with businesses ranging from a corner bookstore to a billion dollar development firm. He is the developer of Emotional Due Diligence, a tool for assessing the risks of relationship and cultural clashes in mergers and acquisitions. He speaks and writes extensively on issues of family business, entrepreneurship, and emotional systems.

As part of his consulting, Mike has created a series of texts that reach the emotional side of business. The world is full of business books, but there are very few resources that offer help for the emotional conflicts that always--always--lie at the center of business.

Mike's books have always spoken to the emotional dynamics of business. Family Business Life is the next step.
