Review Question

This article examine the affect of family management on performance of the company in over all setting. We examine how familiness can provide further insights beyond the classical demographic measures of top management teams (TMTs) in explaining variations in firms' financial performance. We combine arguments on the 'bright' and 'dark' side of family involvement in the firm; we complement positive predictions on family involvement with negative predictions and develop family firm-specific measures of TMTs' familiness. 

Theoretical Framework

In literature there is a family business, both theoretical discussions of agency relationships and the search for empirical evidence on how the agency might cost the company financial performance of companies controlled by family influence (Chrisman et al, 2004).

The first approach draws on organization theory, and using this paradigm to put the 'dark side' of the family property, placing emphasis on the dangers of 'agency transfers in the family unit. The second approach draws on the view based on company resources.

First, our strategic management literature which argues that certain corporate performance is a reflection of its top management team (TMT) (Ham brick and Mason, 1984) See. Second, the vision of the family business literature that addresses questions about how family involvement in the company to donate the results on others, because we decided to combine strategic management research with the family business literature, and particularly with high-echelon perspective, because the two major shortcomings in past research,
