To Nurture or Groom? The Parent–Founder Succession Dilemma
基于自我决定理论,研究家长创始人如何通过支持子女继任者的心理需求(能力、自主、关系)来促进情感承诺,并探讨不同教养方式的伦理影响。
Family business and human resource management scholars suggest that firms whose leaders experience affective commitment are more likely to achieve their goals. Building on self–determination theory, we propose a model in which parent–founders promote affective commitment in child–successors by supporting their psychological needs for competence, autonomy, and relatedness within the family business. We conclude by exploring the ethical implications of different parenting approaches in encouraging intrafamily succession.
