Analytical Model of Leadership in Family Firms Under Transformational Theoretical Approach
研究比较了家族与非家族企业在变革型领导上的差异，发现家族企业更具变革型领导特征，并通过结构方程模型揭示其与团队凝聚力、企业寿命和盈利能力的正向关系。
The goals of the current research were to analyze the existence of differences in leadership between family and nonfamily firms adopting a transformational leadership approach, as well as the potential positive effects of transformational leadership on family businesses. With the transformational leadership theory as theoretical background, the research reveals that leadership is more transformational in family businesses than in nonfamily businesses. Similarly, this research uses a structural equations model to explain the relations between this kind of leadership in family businesses and specific performance-related variables, such as group cohesion, longevity, and profitability.
