“…Bibliometric methods have been widely and increasingly used to provide a comprehensive map of the knowledge structure in a given field (Kraus, 2011;Kraus et al, 2012Kraus et al, , 2014L opez-Fernández et al, 2016;Xi et al, 2015) or in a given journal (Laudano et al, 2018;Marzi et al, 2017). A mixed methods bibliometric investigation of the World Review of Entrepreneurship, Management and Sustainable Development: From qualitative to quantitative data.…”

“…In fact, bibliometric studies have shown their usefulness in a broad range of fields such as management (Podsakoff et al, 2008), entrepreneurship (Landström et al, 2012;Laudano et al, 2018), operations management (Chen and Hsu, 2009;Zhu et al, 2015) and innovation (Fagerberg et al, 2012;Appio et al, 2016;Marzi et al, 2017) by helping scholars to sort the streams of research from the "tangled forest" of scientific proliferation. Following Brown and Eisenhardt (1995) and Furrer et al (2008), this paper aims to help scholars to better understand the direction in which the field is going and where the gaps are, thus providing a guideline for scholars in positioning their future research focussing on two questions.…”

Purpose -The purpose of this study is to map the intellectual structure of the field of conflict management and the field of family business to the investigation of conflicts in family firms, with the aim of contributing to the further integration of knowledge between the two fields.Design/methodology/approach -Family conflicts and work-family balance issues also received a lot of attention, yet studies in conflict management still seem to overlook a thorough investigation of conflict in family businesses. Conflict is a major aspect of family businesses, which differs highly from non-family businesses, and offers an important research avenue for conflict management scholars to contribute to the investigation of major characteristics of organisations that constitute a large part of the value created in the world.Findings -The results of a bibliometric analysis and systematic literature review show that studies concerning conflict in family business aggregate around three clusters: organisational conflicts; firm growth and conflicts; and family control, performance and conflicts. An interpretative framework is also developed to interpret how antecedents, conflicts and growth dynamics in family business influence performances. Findings show how family conflicts and work-family balance issues received a lot of attention, yet studies in conflict management still seem to miss a thorough investigation of conflict in family businesses.Originality/value -This paper contributes to the field of conflict management and family business by providing a systematic analysis of knowledge and family firms. This paper can be a starting point for researchers interested in understanding how conflicts affect family businesses.

“…In TIM field, Randhawa, Wilden, and Hohberger (2016) conducted a bibliometric review of open innovation to reveal three distinct areas, the first of which were fully investigated and the other two remained relatively underresearched. Bibliometric reviews about green innovation, national innovation, product and process innovation, and innovation system are also provided by scholars (Liu, Yin, Liu, & Dunford, 2015;Marzi, Dabić, Daim, & Garces, 2017;Schiederig, Tietze, & Herstatt, 2012;Sun & Grimes, 2016). The most related bibliometric reviews are those treating TIM as a whole.…”

Technology and innovation management (TIM) plays an increasingly important role in the survival and prosperity of firms and economic growth of countries, which makes it increasingly important to trace the trajectory of this research field. However, to date, few studies have analyzed the evolution of the field of TIM quantitatively. Aiming to achieve an overall understanding of the research in the field of TIM, this study extracts all publications in the top 13 journals on TIM and their references that could be located in the Web of Science. Next, through cocategory analysis, cocitation analysis, cokeyword analysis, and coauthor analysis, the crucial intellectual structure of the TIM field is identified, and the distribution and evolution of the hot spots of this field are presented. An overall picture, emerging trends, and key points of the field of TIM are provided, which might contribute to our understanding and future studies of TIM.

“…Process innovations concern new production processes or technologies. This study, like many other process innovation studies (Krzeminska and Eckert, 2015;Marzi et al, 2017), focused on new material, equipment or reengineering of operational processes. In doing so, concern stemmed from the conditions that may determine the choice of a decision-making approach.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the selection of decision-making approaches at manufacturing companies when implementing process innovations. Design/methodology/approach This study reviews the current understanding of decision structuredness for determining a decision-making approach and conducts a case study based on an interactive research approach at a global manufacturer. Findings The findings show the correspondence of intuitive, normative and combined intuitive and normative decision-making approaches in relation to varying degrees of equivocality and analyzability. Accordingly, the conditions for determining a decision-making choice when implementing process innovations are revealed. Research limitations/implications This study contributes to increased understanding of the combined use of intuitive and normative decision making in production system design. Practical implications Empirical data are drawn from two projects in the heavy-vehicle industry. The study describes decisions, from start to finish, and the corresponding decision-making approaches when implementing process innovations. These findings are of value to staff responsible for the design of production systems. Originality/value Unlike prior conceptual studies, this study considers normative, intuitive and combined intuitive and normative decision making. In addition, this study extends the current understanding of decision structuredness and discloses the correspondence of decision-making approaches to varying degrees of equivocality and analyzability.
