Susan Lanz serves as an Impact Fellow at the Centre for Research in Ethnic Minority Entrepreneurship (CREME) within Aston University's College of Business and Social Sciences, Birmingham, UK. Her research bridges family dynamics and business ownership transitions in entrepreneurial contexts.
Her core research focuses on Family Business, Life Course Theory, and Ownership Transfer processes, examining how family life events influence business succession through frameworks like Process Theory. Key areas include Changing Families, Family Events, and Ownership Social Sciences with particular relevance to ethnic minority entrepreneurship contexts.
Her 2025 publication in Family Business Review establishes a life course process theory for ownership transfer, revealing how family life trajectories intersect with business continuity. This work demonstrates consistent methodological emphasis on longitudinal family-business system analysis.
Dr. Lanz actively contributes to CREME's research ecosystem, collaborating across disciplines to advance understanding of entrepreneurial family systems. Her fingerprint analysis confirms 100% concentration in Ownership Transfer and Life Course Processes within family business contexts.
