Dysfunctional Studies: Family Business New School of Thought
Resumen
Purpose: To explore and connect the potential elements identified as dysfunctional in family businesses (DYSFB), where productive, unproductive, and destructive aspects are underscored. Methodological design: A documentary review focused on identifying relevant scholars and academic works that address this dysfunctional dimension.Results: The "dysfunctional side" analysis provides a significant and novel contribution to family business (FB) studies. It establishes a framework for future theo-retical and empirical research on deviations from ideal conditions within such organizations. Research limitations: A notable limitation is the need for further empirical research to substantiate the propo-sed theoretical model, which may lead to a more precise definition of the construct, as well as a clearer unders-tanding of the factors or forces that drive DYSFB from a systemic perspectiveFindings: The viability of advancing a new school of thought devoted to studying dysfunctionality in family businesses (DYSFB). The theoretical model posited here lays a foundation for future research and holds conside-rable potential to inform public policy, shape the entre-preneurial ecosystem, and influence entrepreneurship education
