The Psychological Foundations of Management in Family Firms: Values, Biases, and Heuristics

2021

Considering the heterogeneity of family firm behaviors as reflecting the values, biases, and heuristics of individuals, we discuss the implications of the psychological foundations of management in family firms.

To advance the field, we put forward some relevant questions and offer a future research agenda at the intersection of the psychological foundations of management and family business.
