Wherever you are, get ready to take a front-row seat at the theater of big ideas!🚪✨ Today, we’re cracking the doors of the Journal of Management – yes, that’s right, the FT50-listed, prestige-packed journal that sits atop the academic Olympus. This week, we pivot from the corporate boardroom to the family dinner table with an article that asks: What makes family-owned businesses such enduring—and often dominant—forces in the global economy? Are grandma's secret recipes more than just the menu?The paper, "Toward a Property Rights Theory of the Family Firm", authored by James J. Chrisman, Hanqing “Chevy” Fang, and Vitaliy Skorodziyevskiy, published by SAGE Publications (OnlineFirst, August 3, 2025), explores why families aren’t just keeping traditions alive—they’re locking out the competition while doing it! 🏠🔒🔑 The authors draw on property rights theory to show family firms excel by guarding the gates: mixing emotional family goals with hard economics, leveraging resource secrets non-family firms can’t copy, and bridging the chasm between ownership and management to stomp out opportunism and wasted potential. It’s a potent academic cocktail—equal parts legacy, logic, and locked doors—that challenges everything you thought you knew about family business.But here's the million-dollar question that will echo in your mind as we begin: Can the family firm truly defend its castle forever, or are there cracks in the moat waiting to swallow its secrets?A huge thank you to authors James J. Chrisman, Hanqing “Chevy” Fang, and Vitaliy Skorodziyevskiy, and to SAGE Publications for giving us a peek behind the curtain of such a prestigious, FT50-ranked publication! 🌟📚👍 Smash that subscribe button on Spotify, tune into our Weekend Researcher YouTube channel, and don’t forget: "Revise and Resubmit" is also streaming on Amazon Prime and Apple Podcast.
