초록

본 연구의 목적은 최고경영자의 기업가적 지향성이 조직성과로 발현되는 과정에 개입하는 네트워크 역량의 조절적 영향을 밝히고 실제적인 시사점을 도출하는 것이다. 기업가적 지향성과 네트워크 역량은 조직성과의 중요한 선행요인으로 독자적으로 연구되었지만, 본 연구는 두 변인을 동시에 고려한 통합된 연구모형을 제시하였다. 기업가적 지향성은 혁신성, 위험감수성, 진취성으로, 네트워크 역량은 연결중앙성, 근접중앙성, 매개중앙성으로 세분하여 하부요인 수준에서 가설을 수립하고 실증하였다. 연구 결과, 사회적 네트워크를 효과적으로 구성하는 네트워크 역량이 조직성과에 미치는 기업가적 지향성의 영향을 조절함이 부분적으로 확인되었다. 혁신성이 조직성과에 미치는 영향은 연결중앙성에 의해 조절되었고, 진취성은 근접중앙성과 매개중앙성에 의해 조절되었다. 위험감수성은 예상과는 달리 조직성과에 미치는 영향이 매개중앙성에 의해 부정적으로 조절되었다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 논의된 함의와 제언은 기업이 네트워크 역량과 기업가적 지향성을 활용하고 사회적 네트워크에 전략적으로 참여할 수 있는 방향설정에 공헌할 것으로 기대된다.

The value of social network and entrepreneurial orientation has widely been acknowledged as a critical resource of business success. However, the previous studies did not specify each role and conceptually have examined them as separate antecedents of firm performance. This study develops propositions concerning network capabilities and investigates the moderating effects of network structures (degree centrality, closeness centrality, and betweenness centrality) on the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and firm performance. This research conducted with a sample of 115 small consulting companies in Korea. The findings indicate that closeness centrality moderates the relationship between proactiveness and performance. Also, the combination of betweenness centrality and proactiveness exerts a positive impact on performance. Accordingly, degree centrality enhances the influence of innovativeness on performance. In particular, betweenness centrality exacerbates the influence of risk-taking on performance against our expectation. Overall, these findings conclude the synergistic effects of network capability and entrepreneurial orientation on firm performance. Finally, practical implications and academic propositions are presented regarding the way firms could most effectively utilize entrepreneurial orientation and network capability to maximize firm performance.
