Partners in Life and Work: Finding Success Through a Partner Business

By Dov Levy and Elma Levy

Providing candid advice on the ups and downs of entrepreneurship, this book interweaves the world of tech start-ups, the American immigrant experience, and the realities of running a business with your life partner.

Across two decades as entrepreneurs, Elma and Dov Levy faced economic recessions, government shutdowns, work-life balance issues, leadership conflicts, and the emotions of letting go of their company Dovel Technologies - a technology consulting firm that they grew from a space in their attic to a multimillion-dollar operation with major government contracts. In this conversational and practical book they share insights on:

How next-generation entrepreneurs can develop business relationships and networking skills, and maintain a high level of risk tolerance and manage risks strategically, including how and when to scale the business.

How to stay true to guiding principles as co-owner spouses and woman-owned business entrepreneurs.

What trends and opportunities to watch out for in a post-COVID-19 world.

Aspiring entrepreneurs, growth-focused founders, family business owners, and government and technology professionals will especially value the Levys' business and personal success stories, with guidance on how to manage a marriage and business simultaneously, creating boundaries with a home office, and showing mutual respect in the boardroom.
