On the Goals of Successful Family Companies
探索家族企业所有者管理者认为重要的目标范围，通过因子分析识别出六个主要目标维度，并建议研究人员、管理者和顾问如何帮助所有者管理者明确和沟通目标。
Providing clear goals for a company and communicating them are among the most powerful means for guiding the behavior of the people in an organization. In this article, we explore the range of objectives or goals of family-owned and -managed companies and identify those most commonly regarded as important by owner-managers. Further, we describe six major empirical dimensions of goals that we derived by factor-analytic procedures. Finally, we suggest how researchers, managers, and consultants can use our work to help owner-managers clarify and communicate their goals.
