Family Influence, Advertising, And R&D: Implications For Firm Performance, Atanas N. Nikolov
Journal of Global Business Insights
The literature on family firm performance has failed to conclusively link the impact of family influence on the financial market performance of public firms. The goal of this research is to address this gap by considering mechanisms through which founding family influence contributes to superior firm performance relative to non-family firms. This study links family influence in publicly-traded firms with firm performance in terms of both accounting (Return on Assets) and financial market (Buy-and-Hold-Abnormal-Returns) metrics. The findings support the argument that increased advertising and R&D focus in family influenced firms reflects a long-term oriented management strategy, consistent with decreased agency …

Southwest Airlines’ Successful Economistic, Cost-Leadership Strategy Examined In Light Of Paul Lawrence’S Renewed Darwinian Theory: An Analysis, Nadya Chishty-Mujahid

Given Michael Porter’s assessment of the distinctions between cost leadership and differentiation, my analysis reveals that Southwest succeeded in maintaining its competitive market niche for the air-travel industry by engaging in a strongly economistic, cost leadership strategy that primarily incorporated and prioritized aspects of the drives to acquire and defend. In doing so …
