“…Thus, Barroso [26] establishes that within the weaknesses there are succession and emotional conflicts. Kenyon-Rouvinez et al [29] assume that more conflicts tend to arise in FBs than in nonFBs due to the overlap between the family system, management, and ownership.…”

In a challenging work environment, entrepreneurship orientation (hereafter, EO) can be an important asset for university students. In this study, we investigated the EO and concerns about the future of B.A. students, focusing on the role of mindfulness levels. A total of 204 students, including those coming from family businesses (hereafter, FB), were asked about their intention of creating their own business and future concerns with an ad hoc questionnaire, and about their mindfulness levels with the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale. The results showed no differences in concerns about the future between those students coming from a family business and those who did not. However, in that group of students who were uncertain about starting a business career, a negative association between mindfulness and future concerns was found. This paper sheds light on the relationship between mindfulness and concerns about the future in Business Administration (hereafter, B.A.) students, concluding that, in the face of uncertainty, higher levels of mindfulness help to reduce concerns about the future. Finally, we indicate the relevance of this study for entrepreneurs, family business members, policymakers and B.A. Faculties and Business schools.

“…Family businesses are an important form of enterprise in many economies worldwide (Cirillo et al, 2020). They play an important role, generating 50-90% of gross domestic product (Kenyon-Rouvinez & Ward, 2005) and employing about 60% of the world's population (Peráček et al, 2020). In general, it is estimated that nearly 85% of all private enterprises operating in the European market today are family-owned and family-run (Peráček et al, 2020).…”

No large-scale quantitative studies exist on how the complex characteristics of the firm affect the innovativeness of family businesses. Our study is the first to quantitatively examine how size, age/generation and family ownership individually and in combination affect the innovativeness of family businesses, using data from 56 countries. Firstly, we found that medium and large family businesses are perceived by potential successors as more innovative than small businesses; secondly, that the trend of family business innovativeness changes over time and generations according to the U-shape line; and thirdly, that the most effective family ownership in terms of innovativeness seems to be that with exactly 50%. These results were subsequently confirmed by testing the combined effect of the above mentioned three characteristics. In contrast, small family businesses in which the second or any subsequent generation is involved and which are minority or majority family-owned are perceived as the least innovative family businesses. Our findings can help public authorities in deciding how to allocate public funds, investors in deciding how to co-finance projects, and family businesses in defining development and innovation strategies for their growth.

Bu çalışmada, stratejik yönetim bakış açısı ile Muğla ilindeki küçük ve orta büyüklükteki otellerin devamlılığında planlı nepotizmin etkisi incelenmiştir. Amaçlı örneklem ve kartopu örneklem yöntemiyle seçilen 13 otel yöneticisinden yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniği ile veri toplanmıştır. Veriler, içerik analizi yapılarak incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın bulguları, (a) nepotizme yönelik tutum, (b) planlı nepotizm uygulamaları, (c) otel işletmesinin devri ve nepotizm, olmak üzere üç ana tema etrafında sunulmuştur. Araştırmanın sonucunda, kurucularda planlı nepotizm uygulamaya dönük istek olduğu, ancak nepotlarda bu isteğin bulunmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Bu durum, aile işletmelerinin devamlılığı açısından önemli bir sorun oluşturmaktadır. Ayrıca, araştırma sonuçları nepotizmin küçük ve orta büyüklükteki otellerde farklılaştığını göstermektedir. Otellerde çalışan sayısı ile kurucu tarafından işletmeye verilen emek arttıkça, planlı nepotizme yönelik faaliyetler de artmaktadır.
