1. Cross-functional management in family firms - A stewardship theory perspective

Author

Frank Spiegel, Joachim Henkel, Florian Jell, Hans Zischka, and Jorn H. Block

Subjects
Perspective (graphical), Stewardship theory, Small to medium enterprises, Context (language use), Business, Intellectual property, Functional management, Industrial organization, Test (assessment)
Abstract

Prior research shows that cross-functional management impacts firm performance. Using stewardship theory, we hypothesize that family firms have a high proclivity to pursue cross-functional management. We test our hypothesis in the context of patent management and find that family firms pursue higher degrees of cross-functional patent management relative to non-family firms. However, the effect only exists when the family acts as both owner and manager.
