Abstract

Purpose

The study empirically explores the influence of re-organization on entrepreneurial intentions and family business generational transfers among small and medium enterprises (SMEs).

Design/methodology/approach

Using multi-group analysis and partial least square structural equation models, data from 252 family-owned businesses were analyzed.

Findings

The results reveal that re-organization partially mediates the relationship between entrepreneurial intentions and family business generational transfers among SMEs.

Research limitations/implications

The study used a cross-sectional survey approach and focused on Kampala business district. If required and funding permits, a longitudinal study in this field may be conducted.

Practical implications

Family business owners ought to involve their family members in the management of the business from an early age, including them in the decision-making process, and use social exchange to strike a balance between their personal goals and the objectives of the business. In order to protect the business's goals, the business founder should mentor the next generation through quality family social interactions.

Originality/value

Integrating entrepreneurial intentions and re-organization is likely to improve the survival rate of family business generational transfers among SMEs in Uganda using social exchange theory.

Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to understand the two-way interaction between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and the attractiveness of organization to job seekers (AOJS).

Design/methodology/approach

A system dynamics model is developed in the form of a causal loop diagram (CLD) that explains the CSR-AOJS interaction dynamically. To test the credibility of the developed model, the survey data are used to validate the causal relationships in the CLD.

Findings

This study found that developing an effective strategy or tool by capturing various essential CSR elements can attract potential job seekers.

Originality/value

The developed model is relevant to policymakers, decision-makers and managers when strategizing the CSR plan to attract potential job seekers.
