Abstract/Summary
This is a descriptive study that enumerated the problems and coping behavior of the Filipino-Chinese successors in managing their family business. In this study, the qualitative research design was used. Data were gathered from 12 participants, 11 male and a female through a purposive sampling following the inclusion criteria. In this study, a self-guided interview guide was prepared. This was pilot tested on two respondents. The final results were then categorized and content-analyzed. It was found that the interference of the predecessor is still visible even after succession has occurred. The successors may be chosen through various ways but often this is based on the Chinese tradition of giving the business leadership to the first born male child of the family. Also, siblings may be working within the family business but do not have an important position. Most of the time, problems regarding the family business were resolved through open discussion and communication or with the use of passive coping style, specifically personal judgement of the successor.
