Tough love for a spin-off is a proven approach that can
save years of heartache.
Is your spin-off stuck in adolescence and refusing to
grow up? It may not be the only one to blame. When
companies spin off a division, they naturally want it to
grow and succeed on its own merits, just as they have.
But like protective parents everywhere, they tend to
shelter it in ways that stunt its growth completely.
It’s time to stop over-indulging and start offering the
guidance your spin-off really needs.
