“…[ 55 ] were the first to introduce the concept of Organizational Psychological Capital, as a potential leading but yet overlooked concept in FB studies. So far, the four dimensions of OCP–organizational hope, optimism, resilience and efficacy have been addressed in mainly conceptual papers in the specific FB context (e.g., [ 59 ]), with a few exceptions that provided empirical testing (e.g., [ 44 ] for effect of family business resiliency on role interference). Hence we need more empirical underpinning of the premises and optimal level of ‘organizational psychological capital’ in a FB context .…”

“…Furthermore, we have only a limited understanding of how each of the four dimensions of this psychological capital can be developed at family and at business/organizational level beyond individual level. For example, the recently introduced concept of ‘family resiliency’ (i.e., family’s belief in their ability to discover solutions to manage challenges, [ 77 ]) in family business literature by e.g., [ 44 ]) as the family’s adjustment strategies and coping capacity to respond to stressful events) is distinct from organizational resiliency [ 25 ]. Family and organizational resiliency can have meaningful interrelations, and can be fostered via other tools in a FB context, nonetheless it is important to assess them each separately to find rigorous relations with outcome variables.…”

Mental health issues in family businesses and business families have been studied in multiple disciplines within the past three decades. This article systematically reviews 51 articles on mental health issues in family businesses and business families, published in a wide variety of psychology, entrepreneurship, and management journals. Based on a systematic review of extant literature, this article first provides an overview of the state of the art, followed by specific suggestions on novel research questions, theoretical frameworks and study design. This way, the review systematizes evidence on known antecedents and consequences of mental health issues in family businesses and business families, but also reveals overlooked and undertheorized drivers and outcomes. The review reveals major gaps in our knowledge that hinder a valid understanding of mental health in the specific context of family businesses and business families, and articulates specific research questions that could be tackled by future research among management as well as mental health scholars. Finally, we point to the relevance of this study for policy makers, family business advisors, therapists and managers.

“…Home roles can be passed on to the company; and, as a consequence, these relationships set off various types of conflicts. The lack of structure and clarity in roles and functions often translates into serious psychological problems, which can end up triggering huge conflicts [16] and generating a mix of the family's ownership with the company's ownership [17].…”

“…In this mix of roles and culture, it is easy to imagine the different kind of conflicts that can appear. In contrast with big organizations, in small ones, a mix of roles, culture and ownership are common [17]. Balancing working relationships and personal ones is one of the main challenges for the FBs.…”

BFE Model—Business, Family and Environment—As Subsystems of the Family-Owned Business in Mexico City Metropolitan Area

et al. 2019

This work proposes a model starting from the Three-Circle Model, based on the reality of the small and medium-sized family business sector in the Mexico City Metropolitan Area. The present paper proposes a new model that was built based on the Three Circle Model, but it is based on the reality of the Small and Medium Mexican family business sector. The model does not include the Ownership Subsystem, but it includes the Environment Subsystem, a subsystem that has a vital influence on the life and performance of an organization of that size. These three subsystems intersect in common elements such as culture, economy or company vision, triggering the success or failure of the company itself. The methodology used was a mixed methodology, with both qualitative and quantitative elements. First, the Delphi method was used on a scale that was applied to 25 owners of Small and Medium Enterprises and then, to make an additional confirmation, hypothesis testing, factorial analysis and the technique of structural equations were used. It was seen that the ownership subsystem has a lower weight than the business, environment and family subsystems, is the least relevant.

“…Families and firms function interdependently to deal with demands or disruptions in either system. Reallocating family resources to the firm, or vice versa, was related to a significant increase in role interference or difficulty in dealing with competing demands from the business and the family for business owners (Jang & Danes, 2013).…”

With data from the 2003 and 2005 National Minority Business Owners Survey, we examined the extent to which minority business owners differ from nonminority business owners in their reported use of adjustment strategies, and the relationship between the use of adjustment strategies and perceived business success. The sample consisted of 193 African American, 200 Mexican American, 200 Korean American, and 210 white business owners. Mexican American and Korean American business owners reported higher levels of adjustment strategy use than African American and white business owners. The ordinary least squares show that reallocating family resources to meet business needs and reallocating business resources to meet family needs were negatively associated with perceived business success, whereas hiring paid help was positively associated with perceived business success.
