Abstract
Succession plays an important role in the future survival of a family business. Many factors influence the leadership succession process in a family business. So far, gender issues are the most prominent. This succession is often strongly influenced by gender bias and women are almost always left out as potential successors. However, it is very important to understand gender roles, especially women, and their role in family businesses. This research then carried out a literature search and bibliometric analysis to investigate this phenomenon using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis) method. The data source used in this research is the Web of Science database, which uses bibliometric methods such as co-authorship analysis and co-word analysis to identify the main topics in this area. This research uses 74 articles from 2000 to 2021, related to gender and family business succession. A significant research overview map is presented on the topic of gender and succession in family businesses which can be useful for managers or founders of family businesses as well as for academics who want to gain a comprehensive understanding of succession strategies processes and dynamics, especially in determining the next successor which involves gender issues.
