Consumo, Crisis, Empresas familiares, Rendimiento, Slack organizativoResumen
Las investigaciones realizadas hasta la fecha han demostrado que las empresas pueden acumular recursos por encima de los estrictamente necesarios para superar la incertidumbre asociada a una crisis. Pero la utilización, redistribución o consumo de este exceso de recursos cuando se enfrentan a un entorno adverso está todavía poco explorada. Como sugiere la literatura, la condición de empresa familiar puede ejercer un efecto importante en dicho comportamiento. Este trabajo propone un marco teórico, centrado en la empresa familiar, sobre cómo las empresas gestionan los diferentes recursos slack cuando se enfrentan a una crisis. En este sentido, se plantea la necesidad de que los investigadores en el campo de la empresa familiar aprovechen nuestras propuestas, y la literatura existente sobre los recursos slack, para desarrollar una guía que facilite la toma de decisiones en las empresas familiares cuando se enfrentan a una recesión económica.
