Family Businesses, Roles and Relationships

Objective. The aim of the paper is to investigate and analyse the reasons for launching a family business. It also focuses on family members’ views of the roles and relationships in family businesses. A small number of similar studies have been conducted around the world but none in Slovakia. Hence the paper aims to fill this gap in the psychological research on family businesses in Slovakia. Method. The sample consisted of 21 participants: 6 fathers, 5 mothers, 8 sons and 2 daughters from 10 small family businesses agreed to participate in the structured in-depth interviews. Results. The content analysis of the interview transcripts enabled us to identify the reasons for launching (and running) a family business. Moreover, we analysed the work-family roles and work-family relationships in the business. Conclusions. The in-depth interviews provide insights into the family business environment obtained through analysing the reasons for launching the business, the assignment of family business roles and the types of relationships identified. The results are interpreted paying particular regard for the generational and gender dimensions. Limitations. Not all family members of the participating family businesses had the time to participate equally in the study. The small number of daughters in the sample had a negative effect on data saturation. Furthermore, the family firms were located in one region of Slovakia (Košice region) making it difficult to generalize from the findings.
