As business schools are expanding their offering of family business courses and programs, educators are challenged to identify and select useful learning resources that could be used to teach family business topics. To assist these efforts, we reviewed a repository of learning resources for family business education that includes an extensive list of books, teaching case studies, films, and magazines. This resource review organizes and maps existing learning resources for family business education, discusses the potential usefulness of different types of resources, identifies gaps in current family business education, and outlines directions for future work. The guidelines developed in our review will help expand and further enhance the pool of resources available for family business education, and ideally, will contribute to reducing the gap between family business research and practice. © Academy of Management Learning & Education, 2015.

Abstract
As business schools are expanding their offering of family business courses and programs, educators are challenged to identify and select useful learning resources that could be used to teach family business topics. To assist these efforts, we reviewed a repository of learning resources for family business education that includes an extensive list of books, teaching case studies, films, and magazines. This resource review organizes and maps existing learning resources for family business education, discusses the potential usefulness of different types of resources, identifies gaps in current family business education, and outlines directions for future work. The guidelines developed in our review will help expand and further enhance the pool of resources available for family business education, and ideally, will contribute to reducing the gap between family business research and practice. © Academy of Management Learning & Education, 2015.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
