Abstract
Despite significant advances, a conspicuous gap remains in family business research concerning the practice of innovation in family firms. After reviewing innovation and family business literature, we offer coarse- and fine-grained conceptualizations of intergenerational innovation in the family enterprise. Given the fine-grained distinctions inherent in our resulting definition of family firm innovation, we move on to an in-depth study of one family involved in the innovative activity of jazz improvisation. After offering our analysis of the core dynamics apparent in this family's interactions, we conclude this paper with a research agenda for future work on family firm innovation.
