dc.description.abstract | Purpose-The purpose of this study is to explore to what extent passionate family chief executive officers (CEOs) increase the entrepreneurial orientation (EO) of the family firm. More specifically, the authors investigate the impact of the family CEO's entrepreneurial passion (EP) on the firm's EO and explore whether the generational stage of the family CEO alters this relationship. Design/methodology/approach-A multiple moderated regression model was used to test the hypothesized relationships, based on a unique sample of 140 private Belgian family firms. All respondent CEOs are members of the controlling family, meaning they are in a unique position to influence firm-level outcomes. Findings-The results reveal a significant positive effect of a CEO's EP on the family firm's EO. The generational stage of the family CEO moderates the EP-EO relationship, so the positive effect is strongest in first-generation family CEOs and becomes negative in third-or later-generation CEOs. Originality/value-This research builds on insights from imprinting and upper echelon theory to explore how the EP of the family CEO impacts the family firm's EO. This study thereby contributes to research regarding the antecedents of EO and introduces the concept of EP in a family firm context. The present study further contributes to the literature on imprinting, as it empirically shows how the EP-EO relationship differs depending on the generational stage of the family CEO. In a family firm context, the generational stage acts as a contingency variable, determining the dominant theory (i.e. upper echelon or imprinting theory) in explaining the EP-EO relationship. | - |
