초록

본 연구는 우리나라 소기업의 경쟁전략이 CEO의 리더십 역할에 따라 어떻게 기업성과에 영향을 끼치고 있는지를 고찰하였다. 소기업의 경쟁전략은 기업의 전략적인 의사결정에 절대적인 영향을 끼치고 있어 이를 실증 분석하는 것을 목적으로 한다. CEO 리더십 유형을 구분하여 경쟁전략과 기업성과와의 영향 관계를 탐색하기 위해 국내 소기업을 대상으로 설문조사를 통해 자료를 수집하여 위계적 조절회귀 분석을 통해 실증하였다. 본 연구의 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 소기업의 경쟁전략은 차별화 전략과 원가우위 전략의 유형과 관계없이 모두 소기업 성과에 영향을 끼치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 전략유형 보다는 일관된 전략추구가 기업성과에 더 긍정적인 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 소기업이 추구하는 전략 유형에 따라 CEO의 리더십 유형도 달라져야 함을 확인하였다. 구체적으로 차별화 전략의 경우 변혁적 리더십이, 원가우위 전략에는 거래적 리더십이 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과를 통해 소기업의 경쟁전략은 전략유형보다는 일관된 전략추구가 생존과 직결되어 있어 더욱 중요하며, 소기업의 CEO는 경쟁전략에 따라 적합한 리더십 스타일을 추구해야 할 것으로 사료된다.

This paper investigated the role of CEO leadership in the relationship between Korean small firm's competitive strategy and performance. This study conducted an empirical analysis by collecting data through a questionnaire survey targeting small firms in Korea. The main findings of this study are as follows. First, it was found that the competitive strategies of small firms all had a positive effect on the performance, and it was found that a strategic consistency rather than the type of strategy was positive for firm performance. Second, it was found that the type of leadership of the CEO should also be changed according to the type of strategy. Specifically, it was found that transformational leadership was more appropriate for differentiation strategies, and transactional leadership was more appropriate for cost advantage strategies. This study clarified that the pursuit of a strategic consistency is more important than the type of strategy in the competitive strategy, and that the CEO needs to pursue an appropriate leadership style according to the competitive strategy.
