With a foreword by Tom A. Rüsen
In the template volume for the practice guide „Emergency Planning for Business Families – Securing the Company's Future with Care and Foresight“ (2021), Peter Lamers and Mark Pawlytta present a systematic basis for the individual emergency preparedness of business families. The template volume complements the guide of the same name. WIFU Emergency Planning Practice Guide and serves as a practical tool for the structured compilation of a personal and business „emergency kit“.
In terms of content, the form binder covers both private and occupational provisions. It guides users step-by-step through key areas such as personal data, health care, powers of attorney, wills, insurance, asset summaries, and measures for cases of illness, incapacity, and death. Additionally, business aspects such as organisational structures, financial obligations, contracts, employee relations, and company-specific emergency regulations are systematically recorded. The numerous checklists, templates, and tips help to document relevant information completely, accessibly, and legally.
The template collection follows the WIFU understanding of responsible family business leadership, emphasising the importance of proactive crisis prevention as a component of family strategic professionalism. It clarifies that emergency planning is not a one-off act but a process that must be regularly reviewed and requires both legal diligence and internal family coordination. In this way, the template collection offers a sound, practical working basis for entrepreneurial families who wish to secure their ability to act in exceptional situations and responsibly shape the continued existence of their family, property, and business.
