“After working with Brittany for over four years at Logit, I can confidently recommend that she will make an excellent contribution to any new project or team in both academic and professional settings. Brittany is a highly talented, intelligent, creative person. Her determination and drive resulted in surmounting numerous challenges for complex transportation/urban development projects. During these four years, I witnessed the rapid development of Brittany´s technical abilities. She created innovative methodologies for planning public transportation systems in an environment where resources and data were limited in most situations. Beyond her technical skills, Brittany is a strong communicator. With her knowledge and persuasiveness, she made critical contributions to transport policy decisions during her numerous presentations to multi stakeholder audiences. During this time, I also saw Brittany blossom as a leader and as an excellent project manager, gaining the respect and trust of many clients and managing large interdisciplinary teams from multiple companies and countries.”

In Untangling Conflict, the authors guide families in business through an introspective process that helps them determine their own bespoke approaches to preventing and mitigating conflict. Drawing on decades of lessons learned from supporting families and the businesses they own, the book brings conflicts to life through the lens of a fictional family and the business conglomerate they own. Readers of the book begin by grounding themselves in the defining attributes of their family and their relationship with the business through deep reflection. The book untangles messy threads of conflict within family businesses by examining issues laden with emotion, those related to the rights, benefits, and restrictions of ownership, and issues of business strategy. By exploring these three threads of conflict, the authors help families understand, prevent, and respond to disagreements, without disrupting the family business. Lastly, the book offers tools to align expectations and reduce friction between families, non-family employees, and the partners of the family-owned businesses.
