As, due to their company characteristics, family businesses are exposed to additional causes of crisis beyond the usual causes all companies face, preparing for crisis is of specific importance to them.\u003c\/p\u003eBased on empirical investigations, Pedram Faghfouri shows that non-family businesses are more likely to prepare for crisis when compared to family businesses. The author’s findings let further suggest that the existence of a supervisory board has a positive effect on the degree of crisis readiness of a family business. Moreover, in family businesses with supervisory boards, the involvement of family members in the top management team seems to have a negative effect on the degree of crisis readiness. \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer Gabler\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-11-25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783658005955\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-658-00596-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 190\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47673941393548,"sku":"9783658005955","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783658005955.jpg?v=1776532136","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783658005955","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
