I am proud to have founded a company in which my family is involved. Working closely with family members has its challenges, for some it can even sound impossible. But to me, it is so fulfilling to build something meaningful together. Ellen has been key to the growth and success of this company.
In order for a family to succeed in a shared business, it’s important to set some boundaries. Respect is a key component for this type of business, but above all it is important to try to understand each other's needs, responsibilities, and expectations. You should always try to keep the work environment professional. My final advice is to try to avoid speaking about business matters outside the work schedule.
