Do family businesses really have holidays – I hope so!

Ok, so I am writing this before the bank holiday weekend so by the time you read this the holiday will be a distant memory. For many people the last week in May becomes a week off, with time to charge the batteries uppermost in the mind and for those lucky enough to enjoy time with families, spend some quality time together.

But for many family businesses, this is a very busy time of year and the thought of a holiday is simply impossible. For those of you who are working, make the most of it! For those of you enjoying a break, make the most of it! In fact, it is your life, so simply make the most of it!!!

Below is a tribute to the late Niki Lauda - he certainly made the most of his life and I hope you do the same.

If the business is getting in the way of doing that, perhaps you need a hand.
