This study aims to determine the factors that affect dividends initiation by initial public offering firms in Malaysia. The ownership structure is examined from a corporate governance theoretical perspective in order to evaluate the impacts of managerial, institutional, and family ownership on the dividend's initiation decision of IPO firms. This study employs a quantitative pooled cross-section of 372 Malaysian IPO companies active during the period of 2002-2013. The number of firms that went public each year varies, thus the pooled cross-section data takes place in this case rather than the panel data. The logistic model was employed to test the proposed hypotheses. The results revealed that the presence of institutional investors in the ownership structure make it more likely for IPO firms to initiate dividends. On the contrary, the presence of a family ownership structure in IPO companies as the controlling shareholder makes these companies less probable to initiate dividends. Managerial ownership was found to have no effect on the decision of initiating dividends by IPO firms. The findings of this study suggest that the existence of institutional and family ownerships are agency cost mitigators, as these ownership types could prompt IPOs firms to initiate dividends to overcome the agency conflicts.

Purpose - Entrepreneurship promotion is emerging as an important economic growth agenda. However, in Korea, entrepreneurship has weakened because of the collapse of the venture bubbles of the 2000s and the global economic recession in 2008, which have induced the business community to choose stability over risk. The Korean government has been implementing several support projects to inspire and promote youth entrepreneurship through various means including financial assistance; however, the perpetuation rate of young entrepreneurship is still low as compared to advanced economies such as the US and EU. This case study focuses on the Youth Start-Up Business Support Program of the Small & Medium Business Corporation, and explores practical alternatives. Further, it aims to suggest managerial factors and a conceptual model for change management factors affecting the business performance creation of a startup company, based on the Small and medium Business Corporation's young venture startup fund. Research design, data, and methodology - Many studies examine the current progress and issues of startup firms, for example, a lack of systematic cultivation of entrepreneurship and startup business training, lack of commercialization funding for youth startup businesses, lack of mentoring, and inadequate infrastructure. From prior research, we address four factors, namely, personal managerial capabilities, innovative business model, sufficient cash flow, and social network, affecting startup companies' business performance. This study involved a sample survey of 200 young entrepreneurs to investigate casual relations between the four factors and business performance. A regression analysis was used to verify the hypotheses. Results - First, in relation to differences in the founder's personal characteristics, age, sales amount, and number of employees significantly impact business performance. Second, regarding the causal relation between the four factors for creating business performance, an innovative business model and social networking have supported the hypotheses, revealing that the more that a start-up founder has an innovative business model and social networking, the more the start-up firms are likely to have better performance (e.g., sales volume, employment, ROE, ROI, etc.). Although the founder's competency and sufficient cash flow have no significant relationship with business performance, the mean value was higher performance for high founder's competency and sufficient cash flow. Conclusions - This study provides basic data on policy support strategies of the Small and Medium Business Corporation, to help young entrepreneurs achieve their start-up business goals. It shows that young entrepreneurship startup firms should strive to explore ideas to satisfy customers' needs, and that changes in customer value and the continuous innovation of business model differentiation are required to actively respond to change management. Moreover, at the infant startup stage, they should activate social network programs to share information, thereby offsetting resource scarcity and managing business risk. Further, the establishment of a long-term vision and the implementation of training programs in related specific fields should be supported to strengthen founders' personal capabilities.

공기업을 주축으로 한 공공기관의 지출 규모가 2007년 한국 GDP의 28%에 달하는 등 공공기관이 한국경제에 미치는 영향은 대단히 크다. 그러나 공기업의 방만경영이 오히려 국가경쟁력을 저해하고 있기 때문에 공기업 개혁을 지속적으로 추진해야 한다는 비판의 목소리는 새정부 들어서도 계속되고 있다. 특히, 공기업 CEO 등 임원 선임에 대한 정치적 논란이 국민들의 불신을 초래하고 있다. 본 연구는 공기업 개혁을 위한 여러 방안 중 공기업의 내부지배구조가 공기업 경영성과에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 공기업의 민영화 여부와 관계 없이 공기업의 소프트웨어적인 지배구조 개선 문제가 대단히 중요하기 때문이다. 공기업의 지배구조와 경영성과에 대한 선행 연구는 민간기업의 해당 연구에 비해 소수에 불과하다. 선행 연구는 대부분 공기업 CEO의 소위 낙하산 임용이 경영성과에 부정적 영향을 미친다고 비판하였다. 그러나 최근 들어 공기업 CEO의 임용유형과 경영성과 간에는 상관관계가 없다는 반대의 견해도 제시되고 있다. 본 연구는 다음과 같은 점에서 선행 연구와 차별된다. 첫째, 선행 연구는 공기업의 CEO와 경영성과 간의 관계에 초점을 맞추었다. 그러나 본 연구는 CEO뿐만 아니라 공기업 경영에서 핵심적인 역할을 하는 내부감사인과 경영성과 간의 관계도 더불어 분석하였다. 둘째, 선행 연구는 낙하산 인사에 집중하여 CEO의 임용유형과 경영성과 간의 관계를 분석하였으나, 본 연구는 임용유형(독립성)뿐만 아니라 CEO 및 내부감사인의 전문성이 경영성과에 미치는 영향을 함께 분석하였다. 셋째, 선행 연구는 연구자별로 다양한 표본을 선택하여 비재무적인 지표를 중심으로 분석하였다. 반면, 본 연구는 정부가 공식적으로 지정한 공기업과 외부 회계감사를 거친 해당 공기업의 재무제표를 대상으로 분석하여 연구자의 주관성을 배제하였다. 본 연구는 회귀분석모형을 사용하여 공기업 CEO와 내부감사인의 독립성 및 전문성과 당년도 경영성과 간의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 샘플은 정부가 공기업으로 지정한 24개 기관의 2003년부터 2007년까지의 재무정보와 해당 공기업의 이사회 회의록에서 추출한 인사정보를 활용하였다. CEO의 독립성은 CEO가 해당 공기업 출신 인사인지 아닌지로 파악하였고, 내부감사인의 독립성은 내부감사인이 학계 경제계 시민단체 출신인지 그렇지 않으면 정치권 정부부처 군 출신인지로 파악하였다. 또한 CEO와 내부감사인의 전문성은 업무전문성과 재무전문성으로 나누어 분석하였다. 통제변수로는, 공기업의 설립연수, 자산규모, 정부지원 비율, 연도별 더미변수를 활용하였다. 분석 결과, 내부감사인의 독립성 및 재무전문성과 당해 연도의 경영성과는 통계적으로 유의한 (+)의 관계가 있었다. 또한 CEO의 업무전문성 및 재무전문성과 경영성과는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았지만(+)의 관계가 있었다. 그러나 통상의 관념과 달리 CEO의 독립성과 경영성과는 통계적으로 유의하지 않지만 (-)의 관계가 있었다. 공기업 CEO의 독립성이 경영성과에 미치는 영향은 보통의 우려와 달리 최근 들어 어느 정도 해소된 것으로 보이며 독립성보다는 공기업 CEO와 내부감사인의 전문성이 공기업의 경영성과에 보다 중요한 역할을 미치는 것으로 해석된다. 본 연구는 다음과 같은 한계를 가지고 있다. 첫째, 공기업은 민간기업과 달리 공공성과 기업성을 동시에 추구하고 있다. 그러나 본 연구는 공기업의 공공성에 대한 검토는 배제하고 기업성을 중심으로 연구하였다. 둘째, 본 연구는 중앙정부의 공기업에 한정하여 분석하였다. 따라서 본 연구 결과를 지방자치단체의 공기업에 적용할 때는 세심한 주의가 필요하다. 마지막으로, 본 연구는 공기업 임원 인사 시 제기되는 투명성 및 민주성과 관련된 사항은 연구자의 주관성이 개입될 여지가 있어 배제하였다.

In order to investigate how firms appoint and manage successful CIOs, this study reviews previous literatures and finds major factors affecting the performance of CIOs, Eight factors are found and classified into two groups based on time horizon characteristics: ex ante factors before appointment and ex post factors after appointment. These eight factors are also re-classified into three groups based on the degree of interaction between CIOs and CEOs: CIO factors, CEO factors, and interaction factors between CIOs and CEOs. In order to investigate how these sub-groups affect the performance of CIOs, we have conducted case studies on 6 firms that are considered to have successful CIOs. The results indicate that ex ante factors, for instance, a factor whether the CIO is appointed from inside or outside of the firm, need to be carefully considered for the successful ex post management of CIO positions. This study derives several managerial guidelines and finally proposes a future research model for empirical studies.

The purpose of this study is to understand the safety factors of the public transportation and recommend the experimental factors of customer satisfaction. The survey consist of 28 questions of 5 factors about users characteristics on roads, railways, ships, and flights. As a result of multiple regression analysis, we knew that there are three potential factors affecting customer satisfaction. The Factors are named 'expected', 'attitude', 'management', and the variable of factors affect customer satisfaction significantly. Therefore, it is good strategy for effective working to improve customer satisfaction that maintain attitude with safety minds, try to specialized management, and creating expectation for safety considering the difference by the type of public transportation. After considering the meaningful result, for the development of policies for customer satisfaction for safety, we have to consider expected, attitude, and management factors of workers and officials that influence customer safety and try to improve the managerial factors considering the characteristics of their own.

The purpose of this study is to develop a system dynamics model for the assessment of the organizational and human factors in a nuclear power plant which contribute to nuclear safety. Previous studies can be classified into two major approaches. One is the engineering approach using tools such as ergonomics and Probability Safety Assessment (PSA). The other is the socio-psychology approach. Both have contributed to find organizational and human factors and to present guidelines to lessen human error in plants. However, since these approaches assume that the relationship among factors is independent they do not explain the interactions among the factors or variables in Nuclear Power Plants. To overcome these restrictions, a system dynamics model, which can show cause and effect relationships among factors and quantify the organizational and human factors, has been developed. Handling variables such as the degree of leadership, the number of employees, and workload in each department, users can simulate various situations in nuclear power plant organization. Through simulation, users can get insights to improve safety in plants and to find managerial tools in both organizational and human factors.

This paper addresses a performance evaluation model for ERP system's implementation using Analytic Network Process (ANP) technique. In this study, the performance variables are identified as the perspectives of cost, business process, systems operation, and change management, respectively. The empirical study also investigated factors that affect the performance variables to find out the causal relationship between them using the ANP approach. The data for the empirical analysis were collected from manufacturing companies that have implemented ERP systems. The research findings indicate the proposed model is powerful in proposing that the indirect relationship between influencing factors and managerial effectiveness, mediated by employee satisfaction, is an important one.
