EVALUATING FAMILY BUSINESS WITH DIFFERENT CULTURAL TENDENCIES IN THE FRAME OF ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENSITY

Abstract

Family business, that is a dominant form of organization in most cultures, is defined via some family participation in the business and that the family has control over the business strategic direction. It is stated that, family’s cultural values affect firms’ entrepreneurial activity (Hall, Melin, and Nordqvist, 2001; 194). In this study we propose that, cultural values have an impact on the entrepreneurial intensity (on both degree and frequency of entrepreneurship) of family businesses. In this respect, family businesses that have high religiousness, nationalism and cultural openness tendencies are placed into the Morris and Sexton’s (1996) five entrepreneurial intensity categories theoretically
