Be Part of Groundbreaking Research
- Early access to research findings - Often research participants obtain early access to the findings before the report is made public.
- Contribution to thought leadership / Giving back – Research will help shape important discussions and strategies around the critical issues facing family business. By sharing your story, you enable others, whether they are students, scholars or other business families – to learn from it. This is an opportunity to experience the rewards of social impact and giving back to the community.
- Application of key learnings to your own family business – By playing a role in advancing best practices in the field, you will have a detailed perspective of how to apply this learning to your own family business to provide tangible benefits.
- Opportunity for self-reflection – We find that interview participants reflect on their challenges and processes in a manner which they would not have done otherwise. Stepping back from daily operations to think about broader challenges, guided by an expert in the field, stimulates thoughts and feelings you might not have had before. This process often yields significant emotional returns for our participants.
- Learning opportunity – Engaging in a two-way exchange with an academic expert is an opportunity to learn about the latest family business insights and approaches to business challenges. Dr. Barbera is recognized globally as an expert in the field and for the practical application of his findings.
Academic research performed under the auspices of Toronto Metropolitan University, there is a Research Ethics Board which formally approves all studies involving research participants. Confidentiality is clearly defined and will be explained to you before any questions are asked.
