Abstract
This study aims at conducting a thorough literature review to explore and outline how business and family interface issues are tackled in family business research. A total of 76 family business articles with relation to work-family interface were identified in the selected journals between year 2000 and 2014. Our study demonstrates that most of the studies give no information on the work- family interface. The articles were then categorized based on the identified ‘research strategies’ with different emphasis on business and family interface issues. The findings demonstrate the facets of work-family interface and their relevance into the family business, and its decision-making processes. It is argued that family business research needs theoretical upgrades by focusing primarily on work- family interface.
