Also, family firms in the examined region appear to have a stronger firm culture compared to non-family businesses. Also, organizational culture affects family businesses considering the firm-level outcomes, such as hereditary transition success, family inertia, etc. This paper adds to the existing theoretical knowledge and underlines the cultural traits and family firm culture in the Arab world.
