Synopsis

Is running your home running you into the ground? This is the handbook for you, and for anyone who wants to have a happy organised home. Family management applies good business principles to the work of making the home the best it can possibly be. Being in charge of a house and family means being an accountant, building manager, housekeeper, cleaner, chauffeur, cook, personal shopper and more. Like any good CEO, the family manager needs to know their goals, determine their strategies and manage their human resources. This book will show you how to manage everything: from parties to pensions, dusting to decorating and childproofing to credit cards. Kathy Peel's lively and energetic text is packed with information and tips, based on her experiences as a busy mother of three. She's also included all the best hints she's heard from family and friends over the years. The home is the most important organisation in the world, and this is the ultimate guide to making it work.
