family members in a florist looking annoyed with each other

 

Here’s a variation of a question I hear from family business owners: “I hired my beloved cousin…but it’s not working out. What should I do?”

Before you bring any new family members into the business, ask yourself: “Do the rules apply to them? Am I prepared to measure their performance against the performance of non–family members? If necessary am I prepared to let them go?” The answer each time should be “Yes, absolutely.”
