It’s difficult to combine business and personal issues but a family business patriarch or matriarch is forced to deal with both at the same time. This presents a family business challenge when the family leader is pressured to perform according to the expectations of his family. He can be pressured to make decisions that are acceptable to all members of his family in order to enjoy a harmonious relationship at home. This can hinder him from doing what is necessary to improve business operations.
