The Varying Effects of Family Relationships in Entrepreneurial Teams
研究了创业团队中浪漫伴侣和血缘关系两种家庭关系对团队实现首次销售概率的不同影响,基于295个新生团队的纵向数据,发现这些关系有显著作用。
A majority of entrepreneurial teams contain family relations but little is known about the implications of such family relationships in the formative stages of new venture creation. We examine two distinct types of family relationships in these teams; romantic couples and biologically linked teams and how such relationships influence the probability of ever achieving first sales. Relying on social identity theory, and a longitudinal sample of 295 nascent teams, we find that these relationships matter in important ways. Our conceptualizations and results have implications for the entrepreneurial teams and family business literatures.
