PublicationEstablishing a Recovery Menu to Increase the Resilience of Entrepreneurs( 2024-05-02)
;Battisti, Martina ;Gish, JZhou, HaiboBuilding on the Effort Recovery Model and Conservation of Resources Theory, this study provides new theoretical and empirical insights into how entrepreneurs increase their resilience by engaging in recovery experiences. Employing a longitudinal repeated survey design applied to 346 entrepreneurs, our findings reveal that control is the only recovery experience that directly influences resilience. We also uncover more complex indirect pathways through positive reappraisal and sleep. Overall, the study demonstrates that each recovery experience has a unique relationship with resilience, allowing us to theorize potential underlying mechanisms for how recovery translates into resilience. We offer practical suggestions for effective interventions addressing the recovery paradox in entrepreneurship during times of change and uncertainty.Type: journal articleJournal: British Journal of Management -

PublicationCooperation between Family Businesses of Different Size: A Case StudyFor family businesses, entering into inter-firm cooperation with another family business can be a fruitful strategy for sustaining business success and ensuring survival. However, the typical characteristics of family businesses (e.g. informal organisation structures, restrictive information policy) imply a lower propensity to combine resources on an inter-firm level—which becomes even more prevalent when the relationship is asymmetrical. Against the background that, however, not only research focusing on the cooperation tendencies of family businesses is underdeveloped, but also studies on asymmetrical inter-firm relationships are scant, we aim at examining business-related prerequisites for cooperation between family businesses of different size. By employing a qualitative research design, we gain insights into the importance of similarities in terms of a shared history and synergies in terms of mission and values (i.e., familiness) for balancing deficits in power, from the perspective of the smaller partner. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the development of trust between the cooperation partners, through the active demonstration of a track record as a reliable business partner, as well as making good on promises made, can also aid the long-term success of the cooperation in spite of differences in size and scale of the family businesses involved.Type: journal articleJournal: Journal of co-operative organization and managementVolume: 3Issue: 2

PublicationEmergence of Entrepreneurial Behaviour: The Role of Age-Based Self-ImageThis study introduces an individual’s perception of their entrepreneurial potential in terms of their age (age-based self-image) to complement chronological age as a predictor of entrepreneurial behaviour. The principal hypothesis is that a positive age-based self-image enhances the likelihood of individuals turning their intention to start a business into actual behaviour. The empirical analysis based on data collected on the general adult population of Finland in 2011 and 2012 (n = 672) supports this hypothesis. The analysis further shows that this positive effect is independent of the individual’s chronological age, and it is thus applicable to both age groups that are under-represented in entrepreneurship: ‘youngsters’ and ‘seniors’. Promoting the development of a positive age-based self-image is a prospective policy option for fostering entrepreneurship among younger and older age groups. More in-depth research, especially concerning the antecedents of positive age-based self-image, is required for the effectiveness of such policy interventions.Type: journal articleJournal: Journal of economic psychologyVolume: 50
