Abstract

Purpose

This article provides a personal response to the questions raised by Ratten et al. (2023) on what family business researchers have learnt about the family business field and tips for the future.

Design/methodology/approach

This viewpoint article takes an autoethnographic reflective approach to address the five questions posed to distinguished family business researchers in Ratten et al. (2023).

Findings

In family business research, scholars must address key intersectionalities. These include evolving gender dynamics, global reach, the impact of technology and the growing importance of sustainability. Women's roles in family businesses need thorough examination, while family business definitions must account for global operations. The influence of technology demands exploration, and sustainability is crucial for businesses of all sizes. Scholars should offer theory and practical guidance, bridging the gap between research and real-world application in this evolving landscape.

Originality/value

This article highlights the critical intersectionalities shaping the family business field. Through the autoethnographic reflective approach, the article provides both verbatim advice and future-oriented tips, delivering original and innovative insights into the needs of the family business management domain.

驾驭家族企业研究之路:个人反思
本文对Ratten等人(2023)提出的关于家族企业研究人员对家族企业领域的了解以及对未来的建议的问题提供了个人回应。设计/方法/方法这篇观点文章采用了一种自我民族志反思的方法来解决Ratten等人(2023)向杰出的家族企业研究人员提出的五个问题。在家族企业研究中,学者必须解决关键的交叉点。其中包括不断变化的性别动态、全球影响力、技术的影响以及可持续性日益重要。妇女在家族企业中的作用需要彻底审查,而家族企业的定义必须考虑到全球业务。技术的影响需要探索,而可持续性对各种规模的企业都至关重要。学者们应该提供理论和实践指导,在这一不断变化的景观中弥合研究与实际应用之间的差距。创意/价值这篇文章强调了塑造家族企业领域的关键交叉性。通过自我民族志的反思方法,本文提供了逐字建议和面向未来的提示,为家族企业管理领域的需求提供了原创和创新的见解。
