Career Choice Intentions of Adolescents With a Family Business Background
研究了有家族企业背景的青少年及其父母对职业选择意向的影响因素，发现人格特质、性别、对家族企业的认同感、父母工作回报感知以及父母对继任的偏好和准备会显著区分青少年成为继任者、创业者或雇员的意向。
This study investigates the determinants of career choice intentions of adolescents with family business background from both adolescents’ and parents’ views. Comparing three groups of adolescents (“intentional successors,” “intentional founders,” and “intentional employees”) from 106 German family firms through multinomial regression analyses, the authors found personality traits (i.e., Openness and Agreeableness), gender, adolescent identification with the family business, perceived parental job rewards, and parental succession preference and preparation to significantly differentiate adolescents’ career choice intentions. Findings add to previous succession research by empirically demonstrating the impact of individual and socialization influences on offspring’s succession intentions as early as in adolescence.
