Despite broad anecdotal evidence, little is known about the antecedents and outcomes of stakeholder trust when dealing with a family business. The topic has received little systematic attention, which is surprising given its importance as a potential competitive advantage for family businesses and the influence of family businesses in many markets around the world.

Furthermore, he sheds light on the outcomes of stakeholder trust for family businesses and relevant contingency factors.weiterlesen
