Does intergenerational leadership hinder the realization of innovation potential? A resource orchestration perspective
研究基于中国531家家族企业数据，发现代际共同领导会削弱创新能力对增长绩效的正面作用，即代际领导阻碍了创新潜力的实现。
This study examines the impact of intergenerational leadership on innovative capability and business performance. Applying a resource orchestration perspective to data from 531 family businesses in China, the results suggest that innovative capability is positively related to growth performance of family businesses. Furthermore, family businesses in solo control by one generation demonstrate a higher positive relationship between innovative capability and performance than those jointly controlled by two generations. This suggests that intergenerational leadership hampers the realization of the potential of innovation.
