Abstract

Humane entrepreneurship is defined as "the pursuit of entrepreneurial growth and humane development for opportunity realization and sustainable organization." In this study, we evaluate and compare 19 countries by the degree to which 'humane entrepreneurship' is realized or emphasized. This study compares two factors of humane entrepreneurship, enterprise cycle and humane cycle, between different countries and examines a balance between the two. To make country-by-country comparison along humane entrepreneurship, we adopted Sethia and von Glinow's (1985) organizational culture model, which originated from Blake and Mouton's (1964) managerial grid model. Here, enterprise cycle and humane cycle of humane entrepreneurship correspond to concern for performance and concern for people. We suggest that keeping balance between humane cycle and enterprise cycle is important, because humane entrepreneurship is an internal condition for firm growth.

본 연구는 19개국 조사를 통해 사람중심 기업가정신의 국가별 비교를 실시하였다. 사람중심 기업가정신의 두 요인인 사업싸이클과 사람싸이클을 국가별로 비교하였으며 또한 이 두 요소간의 균형 상태를 파악하였다. 사람중심 기업가정신을 국가별로 비교하기 위해 본 연구는 Sethia and von Glinow(1985)의 조직문화모델을 수정하여 적용하였다. 본 연구에서는 '성과/생산 중시'를 사업싸이클, '사람 중시'를 사람싸이클에 대응시켰다. 국가간 비교 결과 선진국일수록 사업싸이클과 사람싸이클이 균형을 유지하고 있는 것으로 나타났으며 한국 등 성장이 정체된 국가들은 사람싸이클이 상대적으로 부족한 것으로 나타났다.
