Abstract

This study examines how collaboration within top management teams (TMTs) composed of family owner-managers (FOMs) and nonfamily managers (NFMs) influences internationalization decisions. Based on a qualitative multi-case study, we identify four roles taken by TMT members: drivers (typically FOMs), experts (both FOMs and NFMs), boundary spanners (typically NFMs), and administrators (typically NFMs). We theorize how congruence regarding roles, emotional attachment, and risk perception fosters internationalization decisions, whereas frictions arise in case of incongruence and hinder decision-making. The study contributes to research on family firm internationalization and to emerging research on TMT structure.

家族企业国际化与高层管理团队合作:角色、情感依恋与风险认知

本研究考察了由家族所有者-经理人(FOMs)和非家族经理人(NFMs)组成的高层管理团队(TMTs)内的合作如何影响国际化决策。基于一个定性的多案例研究，我们确定了TMT成员所扮演的四个角色:驱动者(典型的fom)、专家(fom和nfm都有)、边界制定者(典型的nfm)和管理员(典型的nfm)。我们理论化了角色、情感依恋和风险感知的一致性如何促进国际化决策，而在不一致的情况下产生摩擦并阻碍决策。本研究对家族企业国际化的研究和新兴的TMT结构研究都有贡献。

期刊介绍： The Journal of World Business holds a distinguished position as a leading publication within the realm of International Business. Rooted in a legacy dating back to 1965, when it was established as the Columbia Journal of World Business, JWB is committed to disseminating cutting-edge research that reflects significant advancements in the field. The journal actively seeks submissions that propel new theoretical frameworks and innovative perspectives on International Business phenomena. Aligned with its domain statement, submissions are expected to possess a clear multinational, cross-border, or international comparative focus, while remaining pertinent to the study of management and organizations. JWB particularly encourages submissions that challenge established theories or assumptions, presenting pioneering or counterintuitive findings. With an inclusive approach, the journal welcomes contributions from diverse conceptual and theoretical traditions, encompassing allied social sciences and behavioral sciences. Submissions should either develop new theories or rigorously test existing ones, employing a variety of qualitative, quantitative, or other methodological approaches. While JWB primarily caters to scholars and researchers, it values contributions that explore implications for Multinational Enterprises and their management, as well as ramifications for public policy and the broader societal role of business.
