The founders of an Ivorian conglomerate take stock—with succession in mind.
Two brothers who founded a successful company in Côte d’Ivoire must make a decision about how to bring their daughter and niece—educated in Paris and currently working there—into the family business, a company founded in 1988 and now one of West Africa’s most successful conglomerates. She has surprised them with an ultimatum: She will come back, but only as COO, in charge of some grand expansion plans.
Two experts—both with deep expertise in African family businesses—offer their advice in accompanying commentaries.
Koffi and Yao Assoua and their driver stood together in the back of the arrivals hall at Félix-Houphouët-Boigny International Airport. Though trying to maintain their dignity, the two brothers occasionally rose on their toes to see over the heads of the crowd. Koffi’s daughter, Aminata—or “Amina,” as they affectionately called her—was coming back home to Côte d’Ivoire, and they were hoping to offer her a role in the family business.

Research has shown that businesses owned by family members have unique challenges both during the lifetime of the founders and at the time the founder has to pass on or when there is need for generational or transformational transition. But these findings have not been collated in such a way as to theorize the variables involved. This paper therefore seeks to analyze the independent variables that have great impact on the success or failure of transition in family owned businesses and thereby its survival. The paper emphasizes that survival of a family owned business is a strategic issue and cannot be left to fate if the firm is to survive the transitional challenges that befall most if not all family businesses. The researcher identified strategic planning, organization structure, succession planning, and resource capability as the independent variables that determine successful transition of these firms. A desk survey was conducted with the world wide population of family business...

Family firms are the most prevalent form of business organization in the world. This special issue of the Journal of Managerial Issues seeks to advance knowledge about the strategic and behavioral issues and processes aimed to accomplish the transgenerational economic and non-economic goals of these firms. Taking a strategic management perspective, this article starts with a brief overview of family business studies, summarizes the articles in this issue, and discusses future research opportunities to create usable knowledge on this ubiquitous organizational form.

This research explores in greater depth the importance of considering the heterogeneity between family businesses so as to better understand the differences in their strategic behavior, performance and business results. With this, we attempt to contribute to the theories on the relationship between corporate governance and strategic management in the field of family business research. Our study identifies the different configurations that may be adopted in the ownership structures and the management and governance bodies of family firms, analyzing how these configurations are related to the firm’s strategic outcomes. Using a sample of 111 family firms, we perform a cluster analysis that allows us to determine distinct types of family businesses based on a set of dimensions regarding the characteristics of their governance bodies, both in business and in the family, as well as their ownership structure and degree of family involvement in management tasks. We then link the different t...

Family involvement in business creates idiosyncrasies in firm behavior that promote long‐term, often transgenerational, strategic logics that ostensibly align with the motivations and outcomes of corporate entrepreneurship. Interestingly, extant research provides only minimal insight into the heterogeneous nature of corporate entrepreneurship orientations pursued by family firms. To better understand this heterogeneity, we bridge arguments within the family business literature to develop a typology of corporate entrepreneurship in family firms. Our findings provide a reconciliatory approach to this literary diversity and suggest that the varied corporate entrepreneurship orientations of family firms are impacted by the duality of a family's distinct intention to pursue transgenerational succession and the firm's unique capabilities to acquire external knowledge—calling into question the antecedents, modes, and outcomes underlying the strategic impetus of family firms to engage in corporate entrepreneurship.

The aim of this paper is to bring conceptual and operational clarity to the phenomenon of strategic renewal and, based on a multigenerational family SME case study, to apply it to family firms, an area in which it has received very little attention

As a remedy, we conduct a systematic and interdisciplinary review of papers at the intersection of both fields to serve as a springboard for theoretical development and spur future empirical work. We compare theoretical frameworks used in family firm and business restructuring fields to generate insights, identify gaps, and delineate avenues for interdisciplinary research. By comparing ...
To achieve this goal, we review and organize research across different dimensions to create an integrative framework. Building on current research, we focus on 88 studies at the intersection of family firm and business restructuring research to develop a model that identifies research needs and suggests directions for future research.
We address this by examining the intersection between research on business restructuring and family firms to improve our knowledge of each area and inform future research.

Although business restructuring occurs frequently and it is important for the prosperity of family firms across generations, research on family firms has largely evolved separately from research on business restructuring. This is a missed opportunity, since the two domains are complementary, and understanding the context, process, content, and outcome dimensions is relevant to both research ...

Abstract It is now well-established that business groups (BGs)—an inimitable multifirm structure that enables legally distinct firms to take coordinated action—constitute a dominant organizational form in many economies around the world. The BG phenomenon has attracted sustained scholarly attention over the last three decades. Despite the shift in BG research toward BG heterogeneity and ...
The resulting integrative research agenda links the study of family firm and business restructuring to avoid a continuation of separate, parallel investigation efforts. The rest of our paper is organized as follows. We first describe the review protocol. We then provide a summary of findings from literature.

In summary, research on business restructuring processes indicates that: a) the equilibrium of socioemotional and financial concerns in family busines restructuring is poorly understood; b) little is known about whether socioemotional motives or other factors drive restructuring decisions (e.g., debt, private equity, internal funds); c) there ...
