This study examined the problem of entrepreneurship education in Korea, which equate entrepreneurship with startups, unlike the global trend of approaching entrepreneurship with a broad concept. On the basis of overseas cases such as European Union and OECD, this study derived the need for entrepreneurship education from the perspective of thinking and behavioral patterns. In addition, Q methodology was used to reason out various recognition patterns and approach solutions for problems of entrepreneurship education in Korea, such as awareness of the need for entrepreneurship education in concepts separate from start-ups, reasons for infertility, and why it is difficult to activate. This approach was conducted for educators and educatees that carries out entrepreneurship education in Korea. In conclusion, there were four types of subjective perceptions about the difference of entrepreneurship education and startup education, and three types were recognized for the need to differentiate entrepreneurship education from startup education, and the two types that made up the upper majority strongly supported the need for entrepreneurship education to be implemented individually. According to the conclusion, this study proposed the development and spread of common teaching materials made by the Ministry of Education and Ministry of SMEs and Startups, which is the competent Ministry, to train professional teachers, training methods, and continuous refresher education. It also proposed that there should be a social atmosphere for eliminating rejection of entrepreneurship not only among the youth but also the adult population, and for continuous awareness of concepts that can be applied within the organization and the community, and that a policy basis is required to do so.

While previous studies and publications all assert a strong correlation between company's business plan and performance, very few have actually conducted practical analyses to support that. This study takes a practical approach in its analysis of Korean small and mid-sized enterprises(SME) with the view to finding an answer to the question. In addition, with the considerations of entrepreneur type and company's development stage, I analyzed the differences of business plan components' effects on performances. I selected business plan's components, which have been suggested only in theory and in concept, through the literature review and preliminary examination. Corporate performances were the recent improvements of ROS, ROA, market share and the number of employees to measure how greatly each is impacted by the components of a business plan. Results show that business plan components have influenced upon the number of employees. The business plan components discriminated superior company group and inferior company group properly. Especially, finance & related system and advertising & distribution factors showed statistically significant classification forecasting power. Technical/Craftsman evaluated the effects of producing & sales and profit & quality factors high and General/Opportunistic evaluated the effects of finance & related system, advertising & distribution, corporate mission factors high. The effect of corporate mission was highest among company development stages. Finance & related system and advertising & distribution factors showed the statistically significant difference in entrepreneur type and company development stages.

최근 대학 내 창업 친화적 학사제도 활성화 등의 정책적 노력과 지원에 따라 다양한 형태의 창업교과 및 비교과 활동이 이뤄지고 있으며 그 유형에 따라 수강생의 참여도 및 교육효과가 다르게 나타날 수 있음을 많은 연구에서 주목하고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 이론과 정보 전달 중심의 일반적 창업 강좌와 창업실습 등을 중심으로 한 체험형 창업 강좌 수강생을 대상으로 창업동기, 기업가정신 및 창업의지에 대한 인식 차이가 있는지, 그리고 창업동기와 기업가정신이 창업의지에 미치는 영향력에 있어서 두 집단간의 차이가 있는지를 비교하기 위해 자료를 수집, 실증분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구결과는 향후 체험중심의 창업교육(experiential entrepreneurship education) 활성화를 위한 정책적 시사점을 제공할 뿐만 아니라, 창업교육 효과에 대한 연구 확산에도 기여할 수 있을 것이라고 판단된다.

최근 대학교 내 창업친화적 학사제도의 활성화 등의 정책적 노력과 지원에 따라 다양한 형태의 창업교과목 신설 및 운영이 이뤄지고 있다. 일반적인 정보전달 위주의 창업교육보다 실제 창업가에게 요구되는 다양한 역량과 문제해결 능력 등을 체득할 수 있는 체험형 창업강좌가 교육의 효과에 더 긍정적인 역할을 하고 있음은 여러 연구에서 밝혀진 바 있다. 창업교육의 대표적 학자인 Michael H. Morris(2014)에 의하면 창업교육은 학생들의 역량 개발을 기준으로 설계되고 평가되어야 하며, 기업가에게 필요한 역량 강화를 위해서는 모의 창업 시뮬레이션을 포함한 다양한 과제, 협업활동, 체험학습 요소 등을 접목시킨 몰입적 참여형 체험학습으로 커리큘럼을 구성해야만 기업가적 역량을 향상시킬 수 있다고 제시하였다. 본 연구는 대학교 내 창업교육 유형을 실전형, 혼합형, 특강형으로 구분하여 창업교육 수업유형에 따른 창업의지 영향요인인 교육 만족도, 자기효능감, 기회인식, 창의성의 차이를 비교 분석하였다. 아울러 창업교육의 수업유형이 교육 수강 후 창업의지 영향요인과 창업의지에 미치는 조절효과에 대해 실증분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구결과는 창업교육이 지향해야 체험중심의 창업교육 표준모델의 제안하고, 창업교육 효과에 대한 연구 확산에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.

The current paper examines the role of the identity of entrepreneurs in the emergence and evolution of a new organizational form by empirically analyzing the evolution of eBook publishers in Korea from 1996 to 2011. Drawing on the recently developed identity-based theory of organizational form in the organizational ecology literature, we test hypotheses on the effects of focused and diffused organizational identities on organizational founding in an emergent organizational population. The results of our empirical analysis that tested three hypotheses about a positive relationship between focused identity and form emergenceand negative relationships between diffused (horizontal and vertical) identity and form emergence largely supported the argument of identity-based entrepreneurship. General implications are discussed.

This study empirically analyzed the effects of international entrepreneurial proclivity of exporting small and medium enterprises on corporate capability and export performance according to product type of industrial and consumer goods. International entrepreneurial proclivity of exporting small and medium enterprises consists of risk-taking, proactiveness, and innovativeness, and corporate capability consists of technological capability and product differentiation capability. Risk-taking, innovativeness, and proactiveness had a significant impact on technological capability in case of industrial goods, and in case of consumer goods, only risk-taking and innovativeness had significant impact. Product differentiation capability of consumer goods was significantly influenced by the order of innovativeness, proactiveness, and risk-taking while only innovativeness had a negative impact on industrial goods. When the impact of corporate capability on export performance was examined, only technological capability had a significant impact on both financial and strategic performance in case of industrial goods while both technological capability and product differentiation capability had significant impact in case of consumer goods. After examining the direct impact of international entrepreneurial proclivity on financial performance, it was found that financial performance in the case of industrial goods was significantly influenced by the order of proactiveness and risk-taking, and in the case of consumer goods by the order of innovativeness and proactiveness. However, the impact of international entrepreneurial proclivity on strategic performance showed different results. In case of industrial goods, only risk-taking had a significant impact on strategic performance while in the case of consumer goods it was significantly influenced by the order of innovativeness, proactivenesspro, and risk-taking. The direct impact of international entrepreneurial proclivity on export performance was different in case of financial and strategic performance, and there was difference regarding product type as well. It suggests that different approach is needed according to product type in order to increase export performance since the impact of international entrepreneurial proclivity on corporate capability, the impact of corporate capability on export performance, and the impact of international entrepreneurial proclivity on export performance were all different according to product type.
