The development of Internet technology can affect firm value through the use of social media by business people. Nowadays, social media affect businesses of all sizes in several different ways. Despite the various benefits obtained by using social media, research at the organizational level and its impact on business performance have not grown as fast as desired. This research aims to examine the effect of social media on oil and gas firms' value. The research sample consists of 9 oil and gas firms listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange 2013-2018. Social media proxies are firms' social media, other social media mentions, and social media sentiment. Firm value is measured by the market value to assets ratio. Data analysis uses a random-effect regression test. Based on the analysis, the social media account of a firm has a positive effect on firm value. It indicates that social media give advantages for oil and gas firms to give a signal of business prospect, make use of opportunities related to industry alliances, recruit employees globally, and c. On the other hand, the positive sentiment on social media has no effect on oil and gas firms' value.

This study sought to look at why Facebook and Twitter, which have dominated the social media market, are moving away from other services. To this end, we sought to identify the causes of churn in terms of firm-level strategic direction and resource allocation, which have not been actively presented to the studies. For this purpose, this study divides the social media firm's strategies into horizontal expansion strategy and vertical integration strategy based on the existing reports and researches, and how each of the representative firms' strategies affects users' switching behavior. As a result, there was a significant difference in the strategic direction of the social media firm, when a horizontal expansion strategy is taken, user's switching intention is higher than when a vertical integration strategy is taken. In addition, the switching intention according to the level of dependence showed that the lower the dependence on social media, the higher the intention to switch to other media. The findings are expected to provide highly realistic and concrete strategic alternatives for a variety of economic actors, such as individuals and companies who want to do business using social media.

When the negative event is published, the company tends to go through the negative impact on the firm performance. Especially, with the SNS, the negative event is instantly spread on indefinite region so the impact seems bigger than the period before the SNS media appearance. It seems that everyone considers the SNS media impact on the firm performance quite big. However, there has been no empirical study on the impact comparison on the firm performance between pre and post SNS media occurrence periods. This study tries to empirically compare the impact of the negative event on the firm performance between pre and post SNS media appearance. Our study starts fromthe basic but not verified question; Does really the negative event have more negative impact in the post-SNS-occurrence period than in the pre-SNS-occurrence period? In order to examine the impact of the negative publicity on firm performance in two eras, pre and post SNS media appearance, we used CAR (Cumulative Abnormal Resturns) model. By using this model, we could verify the statistical significance of cumulative abnormal returns in market between before and after the events. For event samples, we focused on food manufacturers and collected the negative events from 1991 to 2003 for pre-SNS occurrence period, and from 2010 to 2013 for post-SNS occurrence period. Based on the listed food companies at KOSPI, we researched Naver News Library (newslibrary.naver.com) and Naver News (news.naver.com) for all the individual negative events published for both periods. Firm returns data were collected from TS 2000 (KOCO Info) and market portfolio data were collected from KRX Exchange. Through our empirical analysis, our finding is interesting to note that the type of events differently influences on the firm performance. With the SNS, the health-related events have influence on the firm performance 'after the event day' whereas the company behavior trust events have influence 'before the event day'. Our findings have implications for management. When a negative event directly related to or threatening customers or their life such as health, it is crucial to fix up the situation right after the event occurs. On the other hand, when a negative event is not publicly available information such as company behavior trust, it is important for marketers to strengthen the firms' trust reputation and control the bad WOM before the event.

This research explores the question how interactions between customer and firm affect firm growth. To test suggested hypotheses, this study collects data on social commerce industry in Korea during the period from the beginning of social commerce industry in Korea, May 2010, to March 2012, and investigates the effect of social media on the growth of social commerce firms. We suggest two hypotheses in this study. First, as web traffic inflow through social media into a focal social commerce increases, the growth rate of the focal social commerce increases. Second, the more diverse social media channel through which web traffic inflows into a focal social commerce, the weaker the positive effect of web traffic inflow on the growth rate of the focal social commerce. Analysis of data shows that inflow through social media is positively related to the growth of social commerce. In addition, our analysis shows that inflow channel diversity weakens the positive relationship between web traffic inflow through social media and growth rate of social commerce firms. These results suggest that firms need to concentrate on few social media in order to attract customers. The study contributes to understanding how interaction between firms and customers influences the growth of the firm.

본 연구는 미디어에 비친 리더의 이미지를 분석하고 미디어를 통해 재구성된 리더의 평가와 기업의 주가에 상호 관련성이 있는지를 살펴보았다. 구체적으로 세계 최대의 미디어 그룹인 AOL Time Warner의 회장 스티브 케이스의 사례를 대상으로 미국의 대표 경제지 월 스트리트 저널을 분석하였다. 분석기간은 그가 취임한 2000년 1월부터 퇴임한 2003년 5월까지 3년 5개월로 정했다. 미디어는 시장에서 정보중재자로서 기능하기 때문에 월 스트리트 저널의 보도는 투자자들에게 중요한 지표가 된다. 또한 기업 리더의 이미지는 단순히 개인 차원을 넘어서 그 기업을 대변하기 때문에 결과적으로 미디어에 비친 리더의 이미지는 주식시장에서 투자자의 평가에 중요한 요인이다. 분석 결과 스티브 케이스가 회장으로 등극한 초기에는 그의 개인적 이력이 강조되면서 혁신적이고 도전적인 천재로 묘사되어 긍정적인 미지로 그려졌다. 그러나 퇴임시기에는 기업의 부실한 성과에 대해 무책임하고 조화를 이루지 못한 독선적인 모습으로 이미지가 재구성되었다. 이렇게 미디어를 통해 비친 리더의 이미지는 주가 변동과 높은 상관관계에 놓여있었다. 다시 말해 리더가 긍정적인 이미지로 비칠 때 시장에서 그 기업의 주식도 높이 평가되었고, 부정적인 이미지로 부각되었을 때 기업의 주가는 낮게 평가되었다.

Media industry is attempting various types of strategic innovation in the content and organization as they enter transition period. However, previous research has casually treated the organizational culture from the management and realized that cognitive/cultural differences between the specific departments yield conflicts. This means the researchers explored less on the decision-making process with the conflict between sub-groups and constituent in the organization. Our study reviewed the most positive method to achieve the innovation outcome through the conflict management within the organization based on the behavioral theory of the firm and applied computer simulation model for analysis to construct the quantitative scenario and infer the result. Conflict always found while media organization experiences innovation within the groups. However, in the long term, securing the independence through the certain state of 'anarchy' which possibly lead consensus implies significance rather to comprise collegiate system for unilateral control. In specific, this study explored the issues in 'conflict management' that has been evaded in media organization research through NK simulation model.

The paper aims to investigate the relationship between firm size and organizational actions on adopting social media for corporate reputation management. The sample group of 198 companies is selected with a simple random sample method from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) listings: Sixty nine companies were from the Fortune 500 listings, seventy one companies from the NYSE midsize capitalization and fifty eight companies from the NYSE small capitalization listings. This study employs cross tabulations and Chi-square analysis, and the Kruskal-Wallis that enables the comparison of three samples that are independent. The results of the study show that (1) large firms have more social media ownership than small firms, (2) large firms respond to social media posts at a greater frequency and quickly than small firms, and (3) firm size is less likely associated with response styles to social media for online reputation management. The results show that reply time and response styles of organizations to social media customers in the 2015 survey has no significant change compared to that of 2011. There appears to be a pervasive lack strategic framework as most firms in the study were found not to be adequately monitoring or leveraging social media communication for their reputation management.

An increasing number of studies have examined the effects of corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities on corporate financial performance (CFP) in the service industry. However, the extant literature does not provide comprehensive insights into the conditions on which the CSR-CFP link relies. In this study, firms' marketing communication capability (MCC) is introduced as an important contingency variable, which determines the effects of CSR on the corporate financial performance, in the context of restaurant businesses. Multiple year data on the spending of public restaurant chains on different media are collected, and MCC is subsequently measured using the data envelope analysis. Then, a test is conducted to prove whether MCC moderates the relationship between CSR and firm financial performance. The empirical results support the hypothesis that MCC strengthens the effect of CSR on CFP. Through the findings, this research provides several interesting and important implications to the literature and managers of service firms.

경영학적 관점에서 ESG는 환경, 사회, 지배구조 지표를 이용하여 기업이 얼마나 지속 가능한 발전을 이룰 수 있는지 평가하는 것이다. 소셜미디어를 통해, 기업의 선행과 악행을 대중이 적극적으로 공유할 수 있게 되면서 ESG 경영에 대한 대중의 관심 또한 높아졌다. 이를 바탕으로, 본 연구의 목적은 기업 성과가 소셜미디어의 환경, 사회, 지배구조의 감성을 모두 포함한 종합적 ESG 감성과 환경, 사회, 지배구조 각각의 감성과 어떠한 관계가 있는지 분석하는 것이다. 패널회귀모델을 사용하여, 코스피 200 기업 중 143개 기업의 소셜미디어의 ESG 감성과 총자산이익률(ROA), 자기자본이익률(ROE) 간의 관계를 분석했다. 데이터 수집 기간은 2018년부터 2021년까지이고, 온라인 커뮤니티, 인스타그램, 블로그, 트위터, 뉴스를 포함한 소셜미디어 채널의 감성 데이터를 바탕으로 분석하였다. 본 연구 결과에 따르면, 기업 성과는 종합적 ESG 감성과 각각 환경, 사회, 지배구조의 감성은 유의미한 관련이 있음을 파악했다. 따라서 본 연구의 시사점은 다음과 같다. 본 연구는 평가기관의 영향을 받을 수 있는 ESG 등급이 아닌 다양한 소셜미디어 채널들을 활용하여 편향되지 않는 대중의 ESG 감성 지표를 갖고자 하였다. 또한, 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로, ESG 경영의 방향성을 잡는 데 기여할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 ESG 경영에 관심이 있는 연구자들과 기업에게 이론적, 실무적 시사점을 제공한다.

The growth of social media has enabled firms to create virtual organizations (online communities) in which value can be co-created with members. Yet, current typologies of firm-sponsored online communities focus either on the firm or participants, and not the interaction between them. This paper provides a systematic review of the online community literature from 2000 to 2018 to develop an understanding of the types of firm-sponsored online communities and the co-creation of value within them. Four types of sponsored online communities are found. These can be differentiated based on the output for the sponsoring firm and the level of self-organization of the communities. This study contributes to the discussion of value co-creation by (i) shedding light on differences among firm-sponsored online community types based on the level and nature of interaction within an online community; and (ii) examining the perceived value co-created through community interactive experiences.
