I will be taking over my dad’s business in two years, and I really want to do some preparations.
I thought about working as a part time (on the weekend) at my dad’s place, but his company is a bit complicated due to partnership and etc.

well y dont you sit down with your dad n go though some ideas i think that would be the best thing to do
I bought a book called Minding your own business… really good read for businesses starting up
That’s really great. Most people have to start from scratch. It’s nice knowing you’ve got your dad’s business.
My personal favorites are:
- Dig Your Well Before You’re Thirsty by Harvey McKay
- Swim with the Sharks without Getting Eaten Alive by Harvey McKay
- Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyasaki
- Sales Dogs by Robert Kiyasaki
- One Minute Manager
- One Minute Millionaire
- What Color is Your Parachute?
well why after 2years ‘ join today your dad’s office ‘as a part time learner ‘ u become master when u take charge of your DAD’S business that is your REAL PREPARATION . E MAIL ;
I’d run out and buy a bunch of the One Minute books, and then add in Who Moved My Cheese by the same authors.
The series has great and easy to read books on Management, Sales, etc..
Who Moved My Cheese will help you to learn how to effectively manage change and embrace it. (Might want to get this for your employees also, the change from your Dad to You might be a major change for some of them.)
After that, spending time in the business, learning from your Dad, and from all the employees is a great idea. Study the business processes, research competitors to learn what you might be able to do better, talk to clients and find out what they need and like. After you’ve done that, you’ll be ready to hit the ground RUNNING.
