DICK SCHULZE REFLECTS ON EIX AND FAMILYBUSINESS.ORG'S DECADE OF IMPACT

The Best Buy founder, whose foundation underwrites the two sites and keeps their
resources free to use, discusses their growth and global reach.


ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN THE ERA OF DISINFORMATION

to launching a business. Seeing things for yourself has never been more
important.

Entrepreneurs and family businesses need practical takeaways supported by
academic rigor.

year-over-year growth.

passion for helping business owners succeed. He lives by these rules.
