Figures, tables, display equations and separately licensed third-party material are not reproduced; use the linked original full text for those elements and definitive pagination.

Evidence limits: Observational survey design does not establish the effect of hiring an individual manager. Established medium-sized and large German family firms; not a family-office population and not necessarily transferable to small or young firms. Authors acknowledge limited explanatory power and the need for further measures and contexts.
