PublicationExploring Transgenerational Entrepreneurship : The Role of Resources and Capabilities(Edward Elgar, 2013)
;Sharma, Pramodita ;Nason, Robert ;Gonzalez, Ana-ChristinaRamachandran, KavitTransgenerational entrepreneurship, as a discipline, examines the processes, resources and capabilities that allow family enterprises to create social and economic value over time in order to succeed beyond the first generation of business owners. While tangible resources such as financial and physical capital are certainly important factors in the long-term success of a family-run business, this book focuses specifically on the role of intangible resources and capabilities, which are less easily quantifiable but equally vital. Drawing insights from in-depth longitudinal studies of twenty-six family firms in twelve countries, the contributors discuss the critical role of intangible assets such as values, virtues, tacit knowledge and learning, professionalization, internal and external social networks, and reputation. Each chapter includes both a case study that serves as a practical illustration of a particular topic as well as a discussion of the theoretical perspectives and broader implications. Featuring both contributors and case studies from across the world, this volume provides a truly global approach to the study of transgenerational entrepreneurship. Professors and students of business and management, entrepreneurship and family business studies will find this book a fascinating addition to their libraries, as will family business owners, consultants and researchers. -

PublicationThe Global STEP Booklet : Evidence-based, Practical Insights for Enterprising Families(The Global STEP Project, 2011-04-15)
;Nason, Robert ;Sharma, PramoditaFor the past five years, researchers and practitioners in the Successful Transgenerational Entrepreneurship Practices (STEP) Project have worked together to explore one common question: How do family firms create value across generations? After five years it is time for STEP's network of 33 partner universities, 125 scholars and more than 75 families to reflect on our answers to this question. This booklet presents the first comprehensive effort to showcase what the global STEP community has discovered regarding the transgenerational success of family firms. Based on the common STEP research purpose and framework, this booklet presents the most interesting research findings of STEP members from around the world. Overall, we find that the major building blocks of our knowledge lie in the entrepreneurial attitudes and family-influenced resources of the firms. These factors contribute greatly to a firm's entrepreneurial and competitive performance. We explore these unique family capabilities throughout this booklet and learn how values, networks, knowledge, and governance contribute to generation spanning wealth creation
