Socioemotional Wealth and Proactive Stakeholder Engagement: Why Family-Controlled Firms Care More About Their Stakeholders

Family firms are motivated by financial, but also non-financial factors like the preservation and enhancement of the stock of affect related value, or socioemational wealth (SEW), including identity, the ability to exercise family influence, and the perpetuation of family dynasty.
