New Venture and Family Business Teams: Understanding Team Formation, Composition, Behaviors, and Performance
这篇特刊论文研究了新创企业和家族企业团队的形成、构成、断层线、代际参与及团队关系对绩效的影响,发现关系比技能多样性更重要。
New ventures are frequently started by entrepreneurial teams rather than lone entrepreneurs. Often, team members have family ties. Yet, there has been relatively little research on new venture and family business teams. The papers in this special issue address this gap by studying team formation and composition, faultlines among team members, generational involvement in teams, the influence of shared organizational experience and functional homogeneity, and the likelihood of couples, biologically related, and unrelated teams achieving first sales. Combined, they suggest that relationships are more important than skill diversity in determining the effectiveness of both family business and new venture teams.
