Abstract

Purpose

Family businesses require internal communication (IC) to guide and provide direction, and the unique nature of involving both family and nonfamily employees add complexity. Navigating this complexity helps to ensure effective direction and management of family businesses. This paper explores the existing research concerning IC within family businesses and discusses the lenses and contexts through which it is commonly studied.

Design/methodology/approach

This paper provides a concise literature review to identify the most common lenses through which IC in family business has been researched.

Findings

IC in family enterprises is mostly studied through the lenses of IC between family generations, IC and the influence on family identity, and IC in times of crises. Existing research is largely focused on the role of family in IC, and limited consideration is given to the role of nonfamily members and family members outside of the business.

Originality/value

The paper synthesizes the direction and findings of existing research into IC within family business and provides avenues for future research. Managerial implications are also presented based on the synthesis of existing literature.

内部沟通与家族企业:一篇透视文章
目的家族企业需要内部沟通(IC)来指导和提供方向,而家族员工和非家族员工共同参与的独特性质又增加了其复杂性。驾驭这种复杂性有助于确保有效地指导和管理家族企业。本文探讨了有关家族企业内部沟通的现有研究,并讨论了通常研究家族企业内部沟通的视角和背景。本文通过简明扼要的文献综述,确定了研究家族企业内部沟通的最常见视角。家族企业内部沟通的研究视角主要包括家族代际之间的内部沟通、内部沟通及其对家族认同的影响以及危机时期的内部沟通。现有研究主要集中于家族在集成电路中的作用,而对非家族成员和企业外家族成员的作用考虑有限。原创性/价值本文综述了现有家族企业集成电路研究的方向和发现,并为未来研究提供了途径。在对现有文献进行综合的基础上,还提出了对管理的启示。
