An impressive team of editors from Asia, Europe, North and South
America has compiled cutting-edge research on family businesses. In
these chapters, we gain a global perspective of the entrepreneurial
approaches families are taking to prepare the next generation of
leaders. We learn strategies for family firms to survive and
prosper. And we find there are lessons here that non-family
businesses can apply to make transitions successful.' - Francis
Hoy, Worcester Polytechnic Institute, USThis illustrative book
considers the interface of business structures, contexts, and
leadership building blocks to explore the contingent nature of
leadership development in transgenerational entrepreneurship.
Longitudinal case studies of 27 family firms in nine different
countries provide a rich, global selection of leadership
development insights by examining the roles of values,
professionalization, leadership style and other contingent factors.
The diversity of cases and chapters provides a rich foundation for
insight into the pathways currently in use to develop the next
generation leaders, illuminating the strategies and pathways of
successful transgenerational family enterprises. By examining the
available literature and one or more case studies, each chapter
draws pragmatic conclusions, with findings that suggest the
importance of focusing on leadership as a shared capability,
transmission of values to maintain an entrepreneurial culture, the
fit between professionalization and values to increase
transgenerational potential, the need to address the structure of
the business and the focus on parenting to develop next
generations. This path-breaking book will inform family business
researchers as they explore the ways in use to develop the next
generation. Each chapter starts with a mini-case study focused on a
dilemma related to leader development, making this book an
excellent resource for educators in undergraduate, graduate, or
executive programs. Contributors: N. Auletta, B. Bardai, P. Bender,
