Abstract

There are common features among successful entrepreneurs without regarding to the stages of startup like challenge, growth, leap and maturity stages. We know that the successful entrepreneurs have strong entrepreneurship and interpersonal competency through many experiences in the real field of startup ecosystem. Entrepreneurship has a positive effect on intention to start a business, and the importance of entrepreneurship in business startups has been found through many studies. In addition, in most curriculum of startup, entrepreneurship education is operated like an introduction to the startup education. However, in research on entrepreneurship and education on entrepreneurship, it is not easy to find other factors related to interpersonal competence except for leadership. In this study, we redefined relation-building competences in consideration of relation-building parts such as self-openness, affinity, communication, empathy and consideration among various competencies of interpersonal relations, and analyzed the difference of startup intention according to the degree of relation-building competences. As a result, there was a significant difference in the degree of relation-building competences between the group of start-up entrepreneurs and the group with no intention of starting a business. It was proved that the relation-building competences is important for entrepreneurs. Therefore, in addition to studying entrepreneurship, which is represented by conductivity, innovation, autonomy, and risk sensitivity, the studying of relationship-building competences should be continued. It is expected that various research results analyzing the relationship between startups and relationship-building competences will be reflected in entrepreneurship education.

창업 도전기, 성장기, 도약기, 성숙기에 관계없이 성공한 창업가의 공통된 특징으로는 도전성, 혁신성, 자율성, 위험감수성 등과 같은 기업가정신뿐만 아니라 대인관계역량도 뛰어나다는 것을 경험적으로 인지하고 있다. 기업가정신이 창업의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치며 창업에 있어서 기업가정신의 중요성 정도는 많은 연구를 통해 밝혀졌다. 또한 대부분 대학의 창업 교육과정에 있어서도 기업가정신 교육은 여타 학문의 개론과 같이 창업의 개론처럼 기업가정신 교과목이 운영 되고 있다. 그러나 대인관계역량과 관련된 요소를 찾기가 쉽지 않다. 본 연구에서는 대인관계의 여러 역량 중에 자기개방성, 친화성, 의사소통, 공감 및 배려와 같은 관계형성 부분을 고려하여 관계형성역량을 재 정의하고 관계형성역량 정도에 따라 창업의도 차이를 분석하였다. 그 결과 기 창업가와 창업의도가 전혀 없는 그룹간의 관계형성역량 정도가 유의하게 차이가 났으며 관계형성역량이 창업가에게 중요한 역량임을 증명하였다. 따라서 도전성, 혁신성, 자율성, 위험감수성 등으로 대표되는 기업가정신 외에도 창업과 관계형성역량에 대한 연구가 계속 이어져야하며 창업과 관계형성역량과의 관계를 분석한 다양한 연구 결과가 창업 교육에도 반영되기를 기대한다.
