2 Both Family Firms and Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SME) feature a number of distinct behaviors and characteristics which could provide them with a competitive advantage in the market but could also lead to certain risks. The scientific series at hand presents research which provides an empirical and theoretical contribution to the investigation on these specific characteristics and their impact on business practice. The overall aim of this series is to advance the development of theory in the areas of family firm and SME management. Edited by Professor Dr. Andreas Hack University of Berne Professor Dr. Hermann Frank Vienna University of Economics and Business Professor Dr. Andrea Calabrò University of Witten/Herdecke Professor Franz W. Kellermanns, Ph.D. University of Tennessee Professor Dr. Thomas Zellweger University of St. Gallen

5 Foreword V Foreword To be trusted is a greater compliment than being loved. George McDonald This quotation from George McDonald, a Scottish author and poet, is especially true for relationships in the business world, where a desire for the revival of the honorable merchants concept is seen to be increasing. This concept is as old as business itself: doing business on a handshake without the need to protect transactions with a comprehensive contract. In other words, there is a growing need for trustworthy relationships. But an honorable merchant stands for more than simply trusted relations with business partners. He also stands for a distinctive sense of responsibility for his own business, for society, and for the environment. In short, he takes a proactive stakeholder position. For a long time the advantages and disadvantages of family businesses and the possible reasons for a superior performance compared to nonfamily businesses have been much discussed. We know that stakeholders increased perception of a business s trustworthiness can translate into beneficial outcomes. The increased trust of customers can, for example, enhance marketing efficiency; the increased trust of employees can improve their flexibility; and the increased trust of suppliers can lead to more favorable purchasing conditions. Maybe trust or rather, the ability to generate trust is one of the key determinants distinguishing family businesses from other types of business. But do stakeholders indeed trust family businesses more than nonfamily businesses? And if so, why? This is the central theme of Hannes Hauswald s dissertation. He approaches this complex question first by developing a comprehensive model of trust generation in family businesses, and second by empirically testing parts of his model with real stakeholders. His conceptual model is ground breaking. He is the first to introduce to literature a comprehensive model that explains why stakeholders might perceive family businesses as more trustworthy. In addition, and this is a very strong contribution, for the first time, he incorporates the concept of categorization into trust considerations. Furthermore, he is a pioneer in exploring the dark side of socioemotional wealth in a conceptual framework. But Hannes Hauswald does not limit his work to conceptual thinking. He furthers our knowledge of trust perception by analyzing the attraction that job seekers have for family
6 VI Foreword businesses. Applying an ambitious method (i.e., a metric conjoint experiment) on a sample of more than 200 job seekers, he finds out that job seekers are indeed more committed to an organization if their perception of family influence on the business is high. But what is even more interesting is that this positive relationship between perceived family influence and job seekers commitment is more pronounced if there is a strong person-to-organization fit and if the economic environment is perceived as hostile. For this reason, Hannes Hauswald s dissertation is not only a very valuable piece of work for researchers but also for practitioners, and especially for family business principals who are debating whether featuring the family influence more prominently is the right thing to do. In conclusion, this dissertation deserves to attract a broad readership. Prof. Dr. Andreas Hack
7 Acknowledgements VII Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank my doctoral adviser Prof. Dr. Andreas Hack, for his great guidance, his constructive feedback, and his confidence in my research work. Further, I want to thank my second doctoral adviser Prof. Franz W. Kellermanns, Ph.D. Special thanks also go to Prof. Dr. Dr. Holger Patzelt for helping me with the methodological hurdles of conjoint analysis. Second, I want to thank my fellow doctoral students for both, being a great help in the day to day work, and for creating a fun working environment which made me return to my desk also during the hard times of this dissertation project. Lastly, I would like to express my warmest gratitude to my family, who always supported me unconditionally. Hannes Hauswald
