Succession - a prerequisite for sustainability and development of Slovak wood-processing family businesses / Mária Moresová ... [et al.]. -- Tab. -- Lit. - The aim of the paper is to map the current state of succession as a critical prerequisite for the sustainability and development of Slovak wood-processing family businesses. The questionnaire survey was evaluated using statistical methods (Cronbach alpha, binomial test, interval estimate, Pearson ́s test, and the Wilcoxon test). The results showed that Slovak wood-processing family enterprises do not have experience implementing the succession process. They do not plan to sell their business to strategic investors. The main reason for succession planning is the age of the founder of the enterprise. The key factors that threaten a successful succession process include a lack of a qualified workforce, a lack of interest in offspring in the business, and a lack of legislation in the field of the family business. The research provides a comprehensive view of succession in Slovak wood-processing family businesses and points to critical issues that need to be addressed.
