Family involvement occurs when a family exerts control over the firm through ownership and management. When family involvement leads to intentions to pursue particularistic goals and strategies, controlling families are more likely to exert a significant influence on firm strategies, behavior, and performance. Indeed, intentions imply that a firm's strategic behaviors will be oriented toward preserving the economic and socioemotional value of the firm for the family in the long term. Hence, the \"essence\" of a family firm is thought to be a function of a family's influence on the culture, functioning, and behavior of the firm owing to the pursuit of a family's vision for the firm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a result, family firm behavior is expected to be distinct from those in non-family firms. Despite the inherent differences between family and non-family firms and heterogeneity among family firms, family involvement is under-researched in organizational studies, which limits the generalization of findings and leads to theoretical ambiguity. Financial strategic decisions and activities may be key to understanding differences between family and non-family firms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTherefore, we invited researchers to shed light on how a family uses its influence to affect financial strategies, behavior, and firm performance.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Esra Memili\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3038427810\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783038427810\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mdpi AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/23\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.47d","brand":"Esra Memili","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48446076846335,"sku":"9783038427810","price":55.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e56cc67c-4d7b-4e2b-aee1-e9dc15ef3321.jpg?v=1777222468","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/performance-and-behavior-of-family-esra-memili-9783038427810","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
