Purpose The aim of this research is to examine the variables affecting the successor's willingness to succeed during the family business succession process. This study is to determine the variables that influence the successor's willingness to succeed and investigate the correlations among them. Additionally, this study also aims to clarify the connection between the successor's willingness and digital capabilities. Design/methodology/approach To achieve the research objectives, the succession framework by Fox et al. (1996) was utilized, with a focus on the relationship between the successor and business. The independent variables were set as the level of trust with an incumbent CEO, succession preparation, and digital capability. Managerial capability was set as a mediating variable, and the successor's willingness to succeed was set as the dependent variable for the analysis. Findings The findings of this study are as follows. The level of trust with an incumbent CEO and the successor's digital capability were found to have a significant impact on management competence and the intention to take over. Notably, digital capability, a variable not previously utilized in family business research, is expected to become an important consideration in future studies based on the results of this research.
