Non-family Executives in Family Businesses : a Literature Review
2007
The role of non-family executives in family businesses is under-researched in comparison with its importance. Reviewing the existing literature serves as a startingpoint for promoting future research. Based on a literature analysis, we develop a model for the interaction process between a family owner and a non-family executive. The main contributions for the non-family executive in family business literature are presented and structured following this interaction process. Finally, potential and unanswered questions help determine directions of future research.
Towards better academic research-based education in family business : a cross-national comparison of advanced teaching and learning practices
2003
Perheyritykset edustavat sitä yritysten joukkoa, jotka tulevaisuudessa työllistävät opiskelijoita. Tähän haasteeseen yliopistot ovat vastanneet kehittämällä perheyrittäjyyden opetusta sekä lisäämällä tutkimusta aiheesta. Akateeminen perheyrittäjyyden opetus on kuitenkin vasta alkutaipaleella, mutta perheyrittäjyyden erityislaatuisuus kiehtoo tutkijoita, kouluttajia ja opiskelijoita yhä enenevässä määrin. Perheyrittäjyys sitoutuu edelleen muihin taloustieteellisiin oppialoihin, kuten yrittäjyyteen ja johtamiseen.

The internationalization of family businesses: A review of extant research
2010
Among family businesses (FBs) internationalization has become a strategy for growth, and sometimes even for survival. This review article presents an analysis conducted on 25 refereed journal articles on FB internationalization. The articles typically portrayed the internationalization of FBs as a sequential process following the Uppsala model of internationalization; by contrast, some FBs were regarded as “born-again” global firms. In methodological terms, most of the articles focused on what-questions rather than why/how-questions. The articles did not make much use of internationalization or FB-specific theories. Our study takes a step towards clarifying the following issues: (i) the cur…

The Experiential Perceptions of Entrepreneurial Competencies : Avenues for the Next-Generation Entrepreneurship Education
2023
AbstractThis self-narrative study on entrepreneurial competencies was conducted among potential next-generation members belonging to entrepreneurial families. As public university bachelor students, self-narratives written by the students themselves do not reflect just perceptions of entrepreneurial competencies in the context of business families but also in the context of higher education. The conceptual advancement of this paper focuses on extending the discussion of entrepreneurial experience-based competencies before designing and launching a venture, such as creativity, innovativeness, risk-taking, sales, and marketing.
