Multi-case Research On Intergenerational Inheritance Of Small And Medium-sized Family Enterprises

Family business is an important part of the domestic economic form and an important driving force for economic development.With the reform and opening up,China's family business began to rise on a large scale,so academic research on family businesses began to receive attention.After nearly 40 years of development of family businesses,the founders of family businesses have gradually waned,and enterprises have reached an important turning point in inheritance or extinction.As a result,the family business cost inheritance problem as an important branch and direction of family business research has become more and more important and urgent at this stage.This paper sorts out the relevant literature theories,clarifies the relevant definitions of family business and intergenerational inheritance,and based on the theory of relevant literature,categorizes the theoretical elaboration of the influencing factors in related research,and proposes the classification of factors applicable to this paper.Combining the current real environment and some other constraints to screen the enterprise samples,select six representative family enterprises to study the case,and use the literature method and semi-structured interview method to the second generation of business owners and enterprises.Conduct field interviews and interviews,and record the interviews as a material for case analysis.In the process of analysis,embedding theory is used as a guide to explore the influences of parental factors,second-generation factors,external factors and internal factors in the intergenerational process of family business,so as to verify the relevant theories and related phenomena.Explain and try to make an exploratory analysis of some problems that are inconsistent with the theoretical research conclusions,and put forward their own ideas and some related assumptions.However,limited to the author's level,there are certain limitations in the research,and I look forward to further research in the future.
