The Relationship

In this chapter, the authors propose to widen the perspective of human resource management within family businesses by considering the organization as not only one venture but a set of ventures. The authors select case studies to illustrate the process for maintaining trust between CEO of family businesses and partners. The cases showed that regardless of the family firms' ownership and size, the personal relationship was more important to keep the relationship than agreements sanctioned by formalized operation and contracts. The story of the three cases allows the authors to identify a human resource management process of trust maintenance between three inter-family firm relationships.

Complexity of internal relationships and interplay between the two systems: families and businesses, which often lead to conflicts in interaction, however, is the reason that many managers and professionals are not willing to work in family businesses.

The Family

Family businesses seem to have unique characteristics that make them different from nonfamily firms and, even though this phenomenon is understudied, they seem to differ substantially from nonfamily firms in the ways they handle human resource management (HRM). This chapter focuses on three key theoretical perspectives, namely, the resource-based view of the firm, institutional perspectives, and stakeholder analyses, to advance understanding of HRM in family-owned organizations. First, looking at the direct relationships between strategic HRM and distal competitive outcomes, the family business context seems to fall short compared to the non–family business context. However, when adding moderators, some relationships change, raising questions as to the appropriateness of extant theorizations of competitive advantage across organizational institutional settings. Second, family businesses seem to pay special attention to certain stakeholders when compared to their nonfamily counterparts, creating the need to explicate the reasons behind such emphasis. Third, family businesses seem to be affected by certain institutional constraints and enablers, necessitating their study in greater depth and the reasons behind their effects. Given these results, this chapter proposes a line of research devoted to the study of HRM in family business in its institutional context, also looking at the antecedents and the effects of such practices.

Human Resource Management Practices

Although much has been discussed about human resource management practices in large organizations, studies in the family firms' context are nascent in the literature. To better understand human resource management practices in the context of family firms, this study performed interviews on three experienced and successful family firm owners and human resource managers. The research findings reveal that family firms have professionalized, formalized, and employee-oriented perspective in their human resource practices. This study also showed that the new generations in the family are more aware of the importance of human resources and reflect this perspective to their human resource practices. Besides, employees' organizational justice perception is strengthened by considering equality between family and non-family employees in human resources practices. Implications of these results for practice and further research are discussed.

Human Resource Management Practices

This research aims to cover the existing gap in knowledge regarding human resource management practices in winery businesses. Three of the most important practices in this field - recruitment and selection, training and development, and remuneration - and their relationship with performance in small family and non-family wineries as well as the differences in those businesses’ behaviours according to their age and size were analysed. The analysis was based on a 2016 database containing 339 Spanish wine sector SMEs, and a multivariate Bayesian regression methodology was applied. The results demonstrate a lower level of human resource management practices in small family businesses and a stronger relationship with performance than in non-family businesses. The results also show that human resource management varies according to the age and size of the company, indicating an inverted U-shaped relationship with size. On the one hand, these results highlight the importance of human resource practices in the environment of a small winery. These practices have not usually been considered as drivers of performance in small family firms. On the other hand, the results can be useful for the managers of such firms, both in the wine industry and in general, as they highlight the human resource practices that could improve the performance of those entities. The paper contributes to filling the existing gap in the literature related to small family businesses.

The Relationship

Whether the apprentice is competent for the job and produces performance for the organization is the key index to test the quality of apprenticeship education. Based on competency theory, this paper investigates the influence of competency dimensions and work meaning on performance. Through the competency questionnaire analysis of 224 shop managers in apprentice project enterprises, it is found that: the part of the competency dimension of personality traits, motivation and values hidden in the iceberg model has a significant impact on performance through work meaning; the relationship between work values and work meaning of apprentices is stronger, and that the relationship between work motivation and work meaning of non-apprentices is stronger. Therefore, we should pay more attention to the cultivation of multiple values of apprenticeship, especially the significance of moral education. The results provide reference for upgrading the quality of talent training in Colleges, reconstructing talent training objectives and the practice of human resource management in enterprises.

The Relationship

Teaching is one of the professions with the highest levels of stress and disquiet at work, having a negative impact on teachers’ well-being and performance. Thus, well-being is one of the priorities in human resource management (HRM) in schools. In this regard, this paper studies the relationship between HRM, well-being and performance, observing the incidence of leadership and innovation in these relationships. The objective is to measure the extent to which it is necessary to encourage sustainable environments that promote the well-being of teachers and, by extension, students. The study used the methodology of structural equations and a sample of 315 secondary school teachers. The work validates the influence of leadership by example and information management on HRM and performance. In addition, we confirm the significant effect of human resource management on educational performance. The relationship is observed both directly and through the mediating effect on the improvement of well-being. On the other hand, the positive influence of innovation on performance, both in schools and in the classrooms, is reaffirmed. These results suggest the need to zero in on the human resources policies in schools linked to the improvement of teacher well-being and educational performance. They also highlight the role of school and classroom innovation as a key element in maintaining educational quality.
