Commentary: The Prequel to Family Firm Culture and Stewardship: The Leadership Perspective of the Founder
这篇评论探讨创始人如何通过变革型领导行为塑造家族企业文化,进而影响家族承诺、管家精神和战略灵活性,对研究家族企业治理的学者有参考价值。
This commentary considers the role of the founder in establishing a family firm's culture. Drawing from transformational leadership theory, it is argued that a founder who displays transformational leadership behaviors may be more likely to establish a family firm culture that reflects family commitment, stewardship, and strategic flexibility. As such, this commentary extends the article by Zahra, Hayton, Neubaum, Dibrell, and Craig by linking stewardship theory with transformational leadership theory, and viewing family firm culture as an intervening mechanism between leadership behaviors and strategic flexibility.
