Résumé
Les copreneurs sont des couples qui dirigent ensemble une entreprise. Cet article conceptuel met en lumière le partage du pouvoir dans le contexte copreneurial en distinguant entre pouvoir formel et pouvoir informel. Les propositions émises tendent à montrer que le pouvoir informel, très majoritairement détenu par les femmes, n’est ni moins nécessaire ni moins déterminant que le pouvoir formel. De plus, l’association efficiente de ces deux types de pouvoir favoriserait la lisibilité de la structure entrepreneuriale et réduirait les coûts d’opposition entre conjoints et les coûts de non-conformité sociale. Enfin, elle aurait une influence sur la performance de la firme copreneuriale.

Abstract
Copreneurs are couples who run a business together. This conceptual article highlights the power sharing in the copreneurial context by distinguishing between formal and informal power. The proposals suggest that informal power, overwhelmingly held by women, is no less necessary or less important than formal power. In addition, the efficient combination of these two types of power would promote the clarity of the entrepreneurial structure, reduce opposition costs between partners and social costs of non-compliance. Finally, it can influence performance.
Keywords:
- Family firm,
