"Philip’s book is a very worthwhile read for those who work with wealthy families. In particular, the paradigm of the Theory of Change as a mechanism to help to shape  a succession planning strategy is fascinating. It is also refreshing to read a positive exposition of the role that private businesses can play in regenerating  society."
