Recently many companies have increased their investment in IT because they are increasingly interested in taking advantage of IT and they recognized that it was a very important strategic resource that any organization should manage. That means that the members of a company or an organization realized the importance of IT specialists' coordinating and working in partnership with the business employees to ascertain the high quality and productivity through IT services. While the company looks at IT cost reduction, there is a pressure from users for more support and service from IT departments. That means IT service providers have to offer improved service quality at reasonable cost. To solve the contradictory problem, this paper proposes the application of IT service management. If the IT service management is implemented properly, an organization can attain the tangible and intangible results which are profitable and effective. In Korea, studies on IT service management have focused only on getting a certification and development issues, and there are few papers which accomplished empirical studies. From the viewpoint of Resource-based theory, this study reviews the definition of IT service management and its elements. It has demonstrated empirically how IT service management can have an impact on IT service management performance. As a result, IT service management plays a role in adding and improving the practical use and efficiency of IT service management. In conclusion, this study contributes to support and show the critical point of the previous literatures about IT service management and offers the new practical implications for business sectors.

Bookmagic is a new reading program that encourages children of 5-15 ages to enjoy reading. Bookmagic provides free downloadable resources such as pre-reading and after-reading activities, booklists, posters and awards. Since a number of reading programs have already been developed, published and used, Bookmagic is not a toally new project. However, it is distinguished by the process of creating the program. While most of the reading programs available in Korea were developed by individual occupations(academic experts, private enterprises, civic organisations, associations of librarians or teachers), Bookmagic was designed by a team of various professionals including a picture book author, an academic researcher, a primary school teacher, a school librarian and two public librarians. Working in a partnership with other professionals, participant librarians had a unique opportunity to develop expertises on reading education as a creator of a program rather than as a deliverer.

The rapid trends toward outsourcing and collaboration have created complex multi-tier supply chains for construction and engineering industries. Working with suppliers and sub-suppliers requires continuous integration activities in order to maximize the performances of the entire supply chain. The purpose of this study is to identify the factors influencing the performances and long-term business relationship of second-tier suppliers in directed sourcing environment. This study proposes the asset specificity, trust, information-sharing and collaboration, as antecedents variables, and collected the survey responses from the second-tier suppliers in rebar manufacturing works. The statistical results indicate that the asset specificity, trust, information-sharing and collaboration have significant influences on the long-term business relationship of rebar manufacturing second-tier suppliers, but trust has no impact on the performances of second-tier suppliers at 5% significance level. Practical implications are also discussed.

Generally, a PLM education program in university consists of lectures of theory, software lab and software development raining as an advanced subject. Most industries want more than these, such as practical problem solving capabilities, teamwork skills and engineering communications including human relationship, rhetoric, technical writing, presentation and etc. Problem-Based Learning is a problem-stimulated and student-centered teaming method, and an innovative education strategy for collaborative and self-directed learning by applying real world problems. Education paradigm changes from "teaching" to "learning" accomplished by team working, and students are encouraged to develop, present, explain and defense their ideas, suggestions or solutions of a problem, and the "cooperative teaming" proceeds spontaneously during team operations. Co-operative education program is an into-grated academic model and a structured educational program combining classroom learning with productive work experience in a field related to a student's academic or career goals. Based on the partnership between academic institutions and industries, students are engaged in real and productive "work" in the industry, in contrast with merely observing. In this paper, PBL with Co-op program is suggested as an effective approach for PLM education, and we made and operated a PBL-based education course with industry co-op program. The Co-op education in industry accompanied with the PBL course in university can improve practical problem solving capabilities of students, including modeling and management of P3R(Product, Process, resource and Plant) using commercial PLM software tools. By the result, we found this to be an effective strategy for helping students, professors and industries succeed in engineering education, especially PLM area.

This study starts from the research question that "Why some companies decide to keep working in partnership even when they are not satisfied with the partner companies simply because they are old business partners." The authors try to find the answer in terms of customer value considering the phases of B2B transaction spectrum: transaction value, relationship value and appraisal value implementing empirical research. The result shows that the intension to retain the relation with an existing partner is formed by the trade-off between the benefit and cost of both contract value and relationship value and not the sole value was dominant. The unique point of the study is that current study is considering these two factors as dependent variables which affect the relationship continuity which is not the case in existing researches.

Background: This study investigated the status of oral health promotion activities for adult workers in public health centers and industrial dental offices and provided basic data for the model development of oral health promotion program for adult workers in Korea. Methods: A questionnaire was developed separately according to the person who in charge of the oral health promotion activities in public health centers nationwide and dental hygienists working in 20 industrial dental offices. This survey was conducted through postal survey and consisted of 29 items and 35 items respectively, including 19 common items for general information, oral health promotion program status and opinion. Statistical analysis was performed using the IBM SPSS ver. 23.0. Results: We analyzed the data of 147 public health centers (57.9%) and 9 industrial dental offices (45.0%). A workforce with a lack of practice was the biggest barrier to oral health promotion activities for adult workers. However, both groups showed high intention for the practice of adult worker's oral health promotion activities. Also, they showed willingness to work together in an organic partnership to perform their roles (94.4% and 77.8%, respectively). Regarding the scope of cooperation in the implementation of the industrial oral health promotion activity linked to the public health center, dental hygienists of industrial dental offices responded that they could coordinate necessary matters and schedule management. Conclusion: The development of an oral health promotion program aided by the relationship between public health centers and industrial dental offices is essential for the oral health promotion of adult workers. The possibility of cooperation between the abovementioned centers was confirmed through this study. In a long-term perspective, it would be necessary to identify a method to institutionalize industrial dental hygienists for the provision of continuous oral health care in workplaces.

Forming health care management model in small-scale enterprises was the purpose of this study. For the purpose, we tried to investigate the characteristics of small-scale enterprises and analyzed the pattern of their health care management. The results are as follow: 1. The strength of health managing agency and technical supporting program lies in team approach by specialized manpower. However, if the liaison between each part of the organization is not smooth, the overall management will be very difficult. 2. Small scale enterprises are characterized by their short life after the establishment, use of rental building, lack of welfare facilities, weakness in sanitary management and aggregation of factories of similar type of industry. Because of these characteristics, it is very difficult to solve problem basically, such as improvement of working environment. Therefore, it is important to focus on health education and community based approach. 3. Many workers in small-scale factories are in middle and old age. They have health problems mainly related to personal habits. Implementation of an appropriate health promotion program is needed. 4. The number of workplaces, which should be managed by health managing agent. is increasing rapidly. But the number of health managing agent is limited. In the aspect of the requirement of manpower and equipment, training personal agent is more urgent than founding institutional agent. 5. The uniform method of health management hampers the choice of employer and workers. The types of provision of health management should be diversified. 6. For an efficient management, a frequent visit of personal agent and the following referral to a specialist should be done. The specialists in charge of secondary management are from the field of occupational medicine, occupational hygiene, ergonomics, etc. 7. The health management of small-scale facilities should have six components. They are community-based approach, multi-disciplinary cooperative system, program based on the need of recipient, forming partnership of employer and worker, change of lifestyle, and evidence-based program.

This study aims to empirically analyze the influence of emotional leadership of hotel cuisine employees on empowerment, trust and innovative behavior. Selecting cooks working for ten five-star hotels in Seoul for empirical analysis, total 500 copies of questionnaire (50 copies to each hotel) were distributed for 30 days from September $23^{rd}$ to October $22^{nd}$, 2013. Excluding the ones with missing values or too much weighted tendency, total 426 copies(85.2%) were used as the final data for statistical analysis. As a result of the analysis, the verification of causal relationships between hotel cuisine employees' perceived emotional leadership and empowerment, trust and innovative behavior within organizations is valuable enough to be used as the theoretical foundation in the future. Based on the results of such in-depth analysis, hotel cuisine employees' perceived emotional leadership can be shown through interactions between leaders and employees. The effectiveness of leadership can be maximized only when leaders and employees maintain the mutual cooperative partnership to lead employees' innovative behavior by implanting empowerment and trust in employees.
