Some of the most successful companies in Indonesia come from Family Companies that can reach 3 generations. The organizational culture in the family company is largely determined by the mindset of the family company actors. Besides, many family companies cannot articulate their core values (Family Values) into values that can be applied to business, which must be exemplified by company Leaders. This study aims to examine the concepts of Mindset, Family Value, and Leadership in Organizational Culture. The object of this study is a family company which is engaged in building materials business. The population in this study was all employees at building material companies in Surabaya, with a sample of 30 building material company owners as respondents. The analysis technique used in this study is Partial Least Square (PLS). Based on the study results, it shows that (1) mindset has a significant effect on the organizational culture of the building material family company. (2) Leadership has a significant effect on the organizational culture of the building material family company. (3) Family values have a significant effect on the organizational culture of the building material family company in Surabaya.

Laura Olson is one of a small but energetic and influential group of Christian political scientists determined to bring the debate politically legitimate called it either racist or sexist. Yet, somewhat surprisingly, African American pastors held the most consistently conservative views on family values, although they also saw the connections among crime, violence, and the deterioration of the family. Within the authorÕs intentionally limited scope, this is an excellent study, but one should be cautious about generalizing.

According to the intergenerational solidarity model, family members who share similar values about family obligations should have a closer relationship and support each other more than families with a lower value consensus. The present study first describes similarities and differences between two family generations (mothers and daughters) with respect to their adherence to family values and, second, examines patterns of relations between intergenerational consensus on family values, affectual solidarity, and functional solidarity in a sample of 51 mother-daughter dyads comprising N = 102 participants from Luxembourgish and Portuguese immigrant families living in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. Results showed a small generation gap in values of hierarchical gender roles, but an acculturation gap was found in Portuguese mother-daughter dyads regarding obligations toward the family. A higher mother-daughter value consensus was related to higher affectual solidarity of daughters toward their mothers but not vice versa. Whereas affection and value consensus both predicted support provided by daughters to their mothers, affection mediated the relationship between consensual solidarity and received maternal support. With regard to mothers, only affection predicted provided support for daughters, whereas mothers’ perception of received support from their daughters was predicted by value consensus and, in the case of Luxembourgish mothers, by affection toward daughters.
