Book review by CampdenFB A Family Business on the Moon by Randel S. Carlock and Keng-Fun Loh "The term 'ground-breaking' is generally overused however, sometimes an exceptional effort is produced that raises expectations to a whole new level. A Family Business on the Moon has done just that. It is almost as far removed from the concept of a traditional family business book as you can get. And that was the intention of INSEAD Prof Randel Carlock and family expert Keng-Fun Loh, who have poured five decades of fun, practical exercises, and imagination into their fieldbook. A visual feast, with more than 70 illustrations by Ruth Gwily who illustrates for publications from The Washington Post to The New Yorker, it continues to draw you back and through the book. Yet the 24 practical exercises taking you through the Parallel Planning Process give a huge amount of substance to the dynamic style that will keep you coming back again and again. In short it is a must-read for families and advisers. 13 August 2018
