The "new franchise paradigm": an alternative view

Article Abstract:

A so-called new paradigm for franchises, which emphasizes viewing them as shared business ventures, fails to acknowledge that franchisors and franchisees already share mutual interests. Franchise agreements can be drafted under existing rules so as to provide both franchisee and franchisor with adequate discretion and authority. Problems arise when franchisees become blind to the advantages of franchisor-required training or other initiatives designed to promote the success of the overall system. Although franchisee input is important, franchisors must have a free hand to run their businesses properly.
