Abstract

This study investigates how daughter successors perceive that their entrepreneurial identities have been influenced by their fathers. Drawing on narrative identity and identity work theories and adopting an inductive and interpretive approach, we analysed interviews with 21 daughters. The findings reveal that their perceptions of their fathers can influence their entrepreneurial identities in multiple ways, concerning both why daughters become family business successors and how their entrepreneurial identities are shaped. To examine this variety of experiences, this study proposes a typology of four processes through which daughters’ entrepreneurial identities were formed (submission, self-empowerment, enhancement, and idealisation) and how they perceive their fathers’ role (commander, patriarch, mentor, and myth) in influencing these processes. This study contributes to the family business and entrepreneurial identity fields of research by showing that daughters’ perceptions of the role they ascribe to their fathers can be powerful mental representations that exert a great influence on their entrepreneurial identity.

通过她的眼睛女儿接班人如何看待父亲对其创业身份的塑造
本研究探讨了女儿继承人如何看待父亲对其创业身份的影响。我们借鉴叙事身份和身份工作理论,采用归纳和解释的方法,对 21 位女儿的访谈进行了分析。研究结果表明,女儿对父亲的看法会以多种方式影响她们的创业身份,既涉及女儿成为家族企业成功者的原因,也涉及她们的创业身份是如何形成的。为了研究这些不同的经历,本研究提出了女儿创业身份形成的四个过程类型(顺从、自强、提升和理想化),以及她们如何看待父亲在影响这些过程中所扮演的角色(指挥官、家长、导师和神话)。本研究表明,女儿对父亲角色的认知是一种强大的心理表征,会对她们的创业身份认同产生巨大影响,从而为家族企业和创业身份认同领域的研究做出了贡献。
