- The bakery is in its second and third generations. While the father owns and manages it, his elder daughter, Sarah, is employed in it. She is a trained confectioner who has worked in the firm for 7 years. Sarah continues to upgrade her skills and has innovative ideas for renewal of her family’s enterprise. She loves her work and the business and is willing to work real hard to make it prosper in the future. Her husband, Eric, works in the production and has been with the firm for 10 years. Sarah’s younger sister, Anna, is still a student, and has no interest either in confectionary or in her family firm. Their father, John, who has been running the firm since 1980 when he took it over from his father, has declared his desire to retire in about 5 years. However, at this point he has not clarified to his family who his successor will be.

Where have we been and where should we be going in Family Business Research

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Our interest in family businesses derives from not only participation in family firms but also by what we have observed over the years. It is also heavily influenced by our passion for understanding entrepreneurs (Carsrud and Brännback 2009) and the subsequent firms they create which often start out as family ventures. While what we have observed is often positive, the horror tales are frequent and legend. It seems that the structure inherent in a successful business is often in a “degree of tension” with those which characterize a harmonious family. It is this “conflict” that is at the heart of the uniqueness of family business. This book is an attempt to address unique issues that arise from this tension between the family system and the business system.

Identity Dynamics in the Family Business Context : A Novel('s) Perspective
- 2012
-
Ingår i: Understanding Family Businesses. - New York : Springer. - 9781461409106 ; , s. 39-53

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This chapter sets out to create a novel understanding of identity dynamics in the family business context. Focusing on Hjalmar Bergman’s The Head of the Firm (1924), a fiction novel, our purpose is to describe and interpret how the personal identity of an entrepreneur is challenged and changed in relation to demanding and overlapping family, business, and societal norms and expectations. In our case, particularly events related to succession of management and ownership in a family business form dynamic and emotional plots that propel the story forward.
