Adaptation to discontinuous technological change constitutes a major, yet vincible challenge for established companies. Nadine Kammerlander reveals crucial differences between the challenges that family-owned and managed firms face as compared to non-family firms. Series of case studies in the German retailing and book publishing industries illustrate those differences. Empirical evidence further shows how organizational identity affects whether and in what way firms adapt to radical shifts in their environment.  Der Inhalt·         Discontinuous Technological Change·         Familiy Businesses and Familiy Influence·         Empirical Evidence on how Family Influence and on how Organizational Identity Affects Organization Adaptation to Discontinuous Technological Change  Die Zielgruppen·        Researchers and students in the fields of management, entrepreneurship, strategy and family businesses·         Owners and managers of family businesses as well as consultants of family firms  Die AutorInDr. Nadine Kammerlander wrote der dissertation under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Björn Ivens at the Chair of Marketing at the University of Bamberg.
