Abstract

Case studies involving one family business offer insights that run an inch wide but a mile deep. This rich trove of information on a narrow topic can result in practical insights that resonate with family firms and the people who run them. And because it helps unearth questions that need to be answered, single-case research can shape future quantitative research that has the potential to solve real-world problems, re-shape how family businesses approach processes and transitions, and help them thrive.<br>
