Family business; lived experience; phenomenology; existential subjects.Abstract
In this paper we found a very limited number of phenomenological studies in organizations and even more in the field of family business. Interpretative Phenomenology is proposed as method to make possible to generate phenomenological themes and analyse the decision making process and its relationship with emotions in family business. Socioemotional wealth theory and the socioemotional dimensions were used to identify and associate lived experiences and decisions with four existential subjects: spatiality, corporeality, temporality and relationality. For future research lines with phenomenological analysis applying phenomenological interview based on the family business archetypes, succession and emotional ownership is proposed.
