Full textFrom a corporate sustainability performance lens, the purpose of this thesis is to investigate the implications of family involvement in the understanding and use of sustainable performance measures in SMEs with an emphasis in Portuguese family firms. First, a bibliometric study has been used to map the relevant knowledge network on sustainability performance measures and measurement field, retrieving 1271 articles from 1987 to 2015. Second, a bibliometric and abstract lexical analysis were used on 63 SMEs. Corporate sustainability performance studies showed specificities of core theoretical knowledge and the greater operational SMEs focus. Third, using matched paired methodology and multivariate approach, we focus 65 Portuguese SMEs from 2012 and 2016. The main findings show a consistent pattern that corporate family involvement influence financial performance but have a mixed effect on environmental and social performance. It was also be provide evidence of positive link between social and financial performance. Fourth, a case study of a sustainable oriented family owned SME shows that a restricted socioemotional view is dominant in top managers discourses and in their managerial actions, privileging primary stakeholders engagement. Finally, it was provided evidence of positive link between environmental and financial performance in a dual managed context

Strategy research is constantly concerned with how to create and sustain firm’s competitive advantage. However, the samples and units of analysis of prior researches mostly limited to general firms but lack of considerations of family corporations despite of its distinctive characteristics. Motivated by theoretical gap, the aim of this research is to explore how family corporation can sustain competitive advantage. Adopted a qualitative research method, this study purposely selected a family company in the printed circuit board industry. We explored how the company reacted to the threats when it wanted to sustain their competitive advantage. The conclusions are listed below: First, the CEO of a family business should obey the fair rule, and makes objective judgments so as to acquire sustainability. Second, the CEO of a family business should define the strategic goal through proper procedure. In case of environmental change, the proper procedure should be taken place to modify the goal. Third, family business should invest in synergistic specificity, not dedicated specificity. If a family business invests in synergistic specificity, they can not only build the relationship with customers, but also enhance their competence. Fourth, family business should stress the employees’ professional and performance rather than adopting lifetime employment. Fifth, family business should build an objective performance evaluation system with regards to strategic goal, inspiring employees to work toward the strategic goal so as to improve the productivity of the enterprise.

Family firms, the most common form of corporate organization in the West, have played an important role globally. The main goal of corporate governance for family firms is continual sustainability and business development. If corporate entities can strengthen the transparency and openness of their corporate governance, and focus on corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainable business objectives, besides government supervision, it could positively affect society as a whole and enhance public recognition of business. Determining how we can improve CSR and sustainability management besides the simple pursuit of economic progress in enterprises is an extremely important goal. Social Emotional Wealth (SEW) is the theoretical basis which suggests that family firms have a high aspiration to look for methods that could be used to continue the family emotional attachments and values. While a large body of literature has explored CSR and family firms, few studies have examined the sustainability and SEW, and the development of sustainability also needs to be promoted. Differing significantly from prior research on CSR, this research is based on assumptions that family firms have strong motivations linked to heritage and accumulate SEW in the pursuit of close social relations, and not entirely in the pursuit of economic interests, thus the focus is on the exploration of the development of sustainability and business performance. We use family firms as the sample study since they occupy a high proportion in the economic market, and inferred that family firms will strongly pursue sustainable operation and social recognition, to further explore how the business performance of family firms is affected according to several characteristics of family firms in the case of sustainable development. In this study, we regard the Taiwan Corporate Sustainability Awards (TCSA) as the objective measurement indicator of the development of sustainability; it is based on SEW pursuit of close social relations, and we use return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and Market Value to Book Value (MTB) measurement indicators as the variables for business performance. Then, we could examine the relations between them. After controlling for firm characteristics and control variables, we detected several characteristics of family firms, i.e. ownership control, deviance of control and distribution, and single family directors board, and how they are related to business performance when firms received TCSA. The empirical results show that sustainability and business performance have a significant positive correlation; it would increase the incentive for other enterprises to pursue sustainable development. Consequently, it benefits society and the environment. With this study, we also suggest that in the case of developing sustainability, factors such as ownership control, seats control and direction by a single family are negatively correlated with the business performance in family firms according to the theoretical foundation of preferring SEW accumulation rather than profits. The contribution of this study not only lies in increasing the empirical research on family firms and sustainability, but also in providing a reference for future research on sustainability issues and SEW. The contribution to management practices is that the results can reveal some perception about continuity operations of enterprises, and the prediction of business performance of enterprises induced by sustainable development as well as different characteristics of family firms for the public or stakeholders. We wish this study could make several contributions to the literature and the practice of management.
