Abstract

In dieser Arbeit werden auf Basis einer Befragung von Eigentümern deutscher Unternehmen die Zielstrukturen in Familienunternehmen untersucht. Unsere Untersuchung zeigt, dass die Bedeutung, die Familien- und Unternehmenszielen beigemessen wird, von bestimmten Unternehmensmerkmalen abhängt. Ein starker Einfluss der Eigentümerfamilie begünstigt das Verfolgen von Familienzielen. In Übereinstimmung mit anderen Studien zeigen unsere Ergebnisse, dass die Existenz eines Beirates / Aufsichtsrates in negativem Zusammenhang zu Familienzielen steht. Größere Unternehmen zeigen hingegen eine stärkere Orientierung an Familienzielen. / We investigate goal structures in family firms and provide several findings based on a survey among the shareholders of German companies. Our analysis reveals that the importance that is attributed to family or firm goals depends on certain firm characteristics. First of all, strong family influence by itself favors the orientation towards family goals. In line with other empirical studies we find that the existence of an advisory board leads to reduced importance of family goals. However, we find that a larger firm size results in higher significance of family goals.
