A must-read!.......2003-11-10

Consulting to Family Businesses is a MUST-READ for anyone who works with family-owned businesses. The book's format makes it easy to read and to find needed information. Its content, which is nut-and-bolts practical, will benefit both experienced hands as well as "newbies."

This is an extraordinary resource for family business owners.......2003-07-23

Jane Hilburt-Davis and Gibb Dyer have made a significant contribution to the emerging field of family business consultation. They deliver good practical advice along with thoughtful insight about the pushes and pulls that families feel as their companies grow and thrive. In the short time I've owned this book I've had to move it closer and closer to the "most used" section on my book shelf. Clearly these authors do hands-on consultation everyday, know what they're doing, but have also thought about how to share their ideas with family business owners and other consultants. 'Very readable. It's just a great resource.

A Must for Family Business Consultants.......2002-10-15

best book for network marketers on the market today.......1999-03-29

anyone who does not understand this book does not understand network marketing. this book really goes into the depths of amway and brings out the truth about it and anyone who knocks this book does or has not read it at all. the author really researched his subject and has given knowledge to the reader.

More Propaganda to hide the Real Amway.......1999-02-05

Obviously the person who wrote the book, never sought to speak to "informed" or "taken advantage of" Amway distributors. The fact that Amway merely serves as a front for the Diamonds tools and motivational businesses and where the real money and lifestyles come from in Amway. Why not read the truth about Amway in the book "The Cult Of Free Enterprise" by Steven Butterfield

A must read if you are starting a business of your own........1998-09-16

Business is all about people and relationships and the Amway business is no different except the fact that the people you associate with are there to help you become successful as this book demonstrates. This fact has been proven thousands of times over all around the world. If you are considering this business as a vehicle to acheive financial freedom, take the time to seriously investigate, do your homework, and just do it! You won't regret it.

Great author! Great book!.......1998-08-05

This book is truly an independant look at Amway by a highly respected individual. The author of this book has writtin five other books before Empire of Freedom. The topics on his other books have included business communications, politcis and even commercial opportunities in Vietnam. In the 1980's he developed an internatiol business plan for California by request of the governor!

Not only is this book written by a highly respected individual, it also has a foreword by the President of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce! He states about the book, "It's a remarkable story, remarkably told, a story of common people achieving uncommon things every day and, in the process, changing the world for the better."

To those people looking for insight into Amway corp.'s marketing concepts, don't buy this book. This book is about the Amway goal and dream, and how it has affected so many poeple in a positive way. It doesn't go into detail about the marketing plan, and it ! wasn't intended to. The book is about the Amway story (as stated in the title), not the marketing plan.

I highly recommend this book!

What a joke!! Not an indpendent analysis of Amway.......1998-07-30

I purchased this book looking for insight into Amway corp.'s marketing concepts and some background history on what made the company successful. Instead I got a lot of Amway propaganda. Please do not put this book in the category of an independent analysis of Amway. It is just some book that is undoubtedly given away Amway rallies.
