  • 급변하는 경영환경에 적응하기 위한 조직에서 변혁적 리더십과 창의적 분위기 개념이 중요함에도 실제로 조직구성원의 혁신성과와 관련된 실증적 연구가 부족하였다. 본 연구에서는 IT서비스 분야의 연구개발 조직을 대상으로 변혁적 리더십과 조직구성원의 혁신성과의 관계에 대해 검증하였다. 또한 그 관계에 있어 창의적 분위기의 매개효과와 조직구성원의 혁신성향으로 인한 조절효과에 대해서도 검증하였다. 본 연구의 주요 결론은 다음과 같다. 변혁적 리더십과 조직구성원의 혁신성과의 관계 및 창의적 분위기와 혁신성과의 관계도 유의미하게 나타났으며, 창의적 분위기는 변혁적 리더십과 혁신성과 관계에 부분매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 혁신성향의 조절효과 역시 통계적으로 유의미한 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 실증 연구 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 조직의 혁신 성과에 있어서 리더십과 창의적 분위기 조성의 관련성을 증명하였다. 뿐만 아니라 조직구성원 개인 성향에 대한 이해를 기반으로 창의적 분위기 조성을 위한 리더의 역할이 중요함을 강조하였다. 이러한 시사점을 바탕으로 추후 연구를 위하여 선행 연구 모델의 개념을 확장한 '창의성 생성 모델' 개념을 제안하였다.

  • Global conglomerates in the late 2010s are seeking changes from the existing method of financial growth into that of sustainable growth, as they are facing the age of 4th industrial revolution. In preparation for this change of the times and to stay competitive, small businesses are required to produce creative knowledge, and systematically share and store it by means of implementing voluntary and specific changes in their convictions and actions. This study aims to empirically examine how the ICT small businesses' organizational learning participants' self-leadership affect their job satisfaction through organization orientation and Leader-Member Exchange(LMX). The research sample consists of the first to third-year employees that have previously participated in the small businesses' organizational learning support project, and of learning leaders, group leaders, and group members from companies that have previously concluded the project. The results are as follows: First, the self-leadership at the ICT small businesses' organizational learning project has been shown to have a positive effect on job satisfaction. The same positive results are shown in learning orientation and LMX. Second, the learning orientation has been shown to have a positive effect on job satisfaction. Third, the LMX has been shown to have a positive effect on job satisfaction.

  • Over the past decades, Bangladesh has fought poverty via labor-intensive industry and inclusive financing. The techniques assist underprivileged women in achieving self-sufficiency and encourage them to pursue independent endeavors. However, the majority of female entrepreneurs focused on four key company types: parlor, boutique, clothes, and fashion, all of which have limited access to financing. It was feared that their shortage of finance was hindering the growth of their company. The study's goal is to assess the effects of financial availability and knowledge on women's entrepreneurship development in Bangladesh via the lens of transformational leadership practices. A sample of 580 SMEs was considered for data collection with a structured questionnaire: a five-point Likert scale for getting responses from SMEs. The model coefficients with structural equation modeling revealed that financial accessibility plays a positive and statistically significant role in women's entrepreneurship development. Moreover, knowledge level established positive interlinkage with women's entrepreneurship development. Transformational leadership, which plays a mediating role in leadership practices, has been linked to the development of women's entrepreneurship indirectly and positively. As a result, support for knowledge creation and external financing must evolve and be made available to ensure women's sustainable development through entrepreneurial activities.

  • This paper focuses on how an integrated or systemic approach is needed to both investigate and connect different kinds of interdisciplinary inquiry and knowledge within and beyond universities to encourage more productive collaboration with the other three ‘macro stakeholders’ - government, business, and the wider community. In this way universities can and should provide a greater leadership role in sustainability, innovation and policy studies. Such a framework is needed to also help to change the view of many that academics should just play a supporting role of providing specialised technical expertise only to the other macro stakeholders. The interdisciplinary and collaborative framework developed here is applied to the on-going water crisis in Malaysia - an exemplary complex problem-solving basis for seeking sustainable policy solutions to diverse challenges. As further discussed, this was applied also in practice to a multi-stakeholder seminar on addressing the difficult policy challenges of the Malaysian water industry and sector.

  • 4차산업혁명의 진전에 따라 스타트업의 중요성이 더욱 강조되고 있는 시점이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 한국 스타트업의 5년내 생존율이 OECD국가보다 낮은 편이다. 본 연구에서는 스타트업이 지속가능한 성장을 위해서는 조직성과가 무엇보다 중요하다는 전제하에 애자일리더십, 학습민첩성과 스타트업 조직성과의 영향 관계를 분석하였다. 실증분석을 위해 애자일리더십을 독립변수로, 학습민첩성을 매개변수로, 조직성과를 종속변수로 설정하였다. 전국의 스타트업 종업원을 대상으로 자료를 수집하였으며, 이중 유효한 197부를 분석의 대상으로 삼았다. 실증분석은 Process Macro 4.2를 활용하였다. 실증분석결과 애자일리더십은 스타트업 조직성과에 정(+)의 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 애자일리더십은 학습민첩성에 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤으며, 학습민첩성은 스타트업 조직성과에 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 학습민첩성의 매개효과를 분석한 결과 학습민첩성은 애자일리더십과 조직성과간 매개역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과는 학술적으로는 스타트업의 조직성과를 향상시킬수 있는 다양한 리더십 스타일 중에서 스타트업의 문화에 맞는 애자일리더십의 유용성을 검정한 것이다. 실무적으로는 이러한 애자일리더십이 조직성과에 영향을 직접 미치기도 하지만 스타트업 종업원의 학습민첩성을 통해서도 영향을 미친다는 것이다. 이는 스타트업 종업원들이 지속적으로 학습하고 적응하도록 장려하는 학습 민첩성 문화를 조성함으로써 스타트업은 생존과 성공 가능성을 높일 수 있다는 것이다.

  • The purposes of this study were to review the rural youth programs of selected foreign countries and to draw some implications to the rural youth programs in Korea. The youth development programs reviewed were 4-H Youth Development Program of U.S.A, Rural Youth Information Service of Australia, Rural Youth Job Strategy of Canada, The Urban-Rural Youth Program of U.S.A, and Expert Consultation on Extension Rural Youth Programmes and Sustainable Development of FAO. After reviewing the rural youth programs of selected foreign countries, the authors suggested the following implications for further development of rural youth programs in Korea; 1. The target group of rural youth programs should include urban youth as well as rural youth, and the programs should be focused on enlarging their awareness of the rural community and agriculture. 2. Rural youth programs should be extended beyond agricultural sectors, such as leadership, career development, leisure activity, and cultural life. 3. We should develop some programs to support academic achievement, career development, employment, cultural needs including some strategies to prevent problematic behaviors of rural youth. 4. Rural youth should be supported more opportunities to join the community life to experience and learn various life skills through active participation such as interpersonal skill, leadership skill, and problem-solving skill.

  • Quality is distinguished from the other important management indicators, cost and profitability, by the features of its far longer history and of common concern to both manufacturer and customer. We may say from this that quality has a far more human aspect than either cost or profitability. We stress the importance of establishing “quality culture.” But we do not commonly use the terms of “cost culture” or “productivity culture.”In addition, we know from our experiences that improving quality by creative methods can lead to lower cost and higher productivity, although the converse is not necessarily true. In the Maslow's hierarchy of human needs, it is known that the character of human needs changes from extrinsic and material ones at lower levels to intrinsic and mental or spiritual ones at higher levels. We know from our experience that employee satisfaction is closely linked with quality, which is of more human nature and can further be deployed into the detailed elements of quality. The leaders and managers should positively display leadership and respond to the efforts of the subordinates. Without these managerial leadership and efforts, it is almost impossible to provide essential and true customer satisfaction. They are the indispensable elements for business excellence.

  • The question of how to establish sustainable agricultural systems has become as prominent as questions related to water, energy and climate change. High input/high output agriculture has brought with it many adverse effects; the massive deterioration of soil and water in both quantity and quality, increased greenhouse gas emissions and an increased prevalence of unsafe foods. Additionally, urbanization and climate change has worsened the shortage of farmland and reduced the supply of agricultural water. Given these challenges, maintaining, conserving and efficiently using agri-environmental resources, through fostering of sustainable agriculture, have emerged as key tasks in solving these problems. What is needed therefore is research, based on systematic and comprehensive empirical analyses, that can propose plans and methods for establishing an appropriate sustainable agricultural system. The empirical analysis of sustainable agricultural system is approached separately from economic, environmental and social aspects. An analysis of environment effect reveals that the available phosphate level is 1.3~2.1 times greater than the optimal amount in rice paddies, upland fields and orchards. Further examination has revealed that the excess nutrient is polluting both ground water and surface water. Analytical results for economic feasibility show that factors of production have been invested heavily in the rice crop. Under these conditions, sustainable agriculture, including low-input agriculture, appears to be a possible alternative that will facilitate simultaneous improvements in both economic feasibility and environment effects. Analysis results for sociality reveal that social factors include the value of producer, association and interior networks. Social conditions are comprised of leadership, consumers' awareness, education and conflict solutions. In addition, analysis as to the degree investments contribute to improving agricultural value added has revealed that the direct payment program is the most effective instrument. Experts confirm that economic feasibility can be improved by scientific and well-reasoned nutrient management on the basis of soil testing. Farmers pointed to 'economic factors' as being the largest obstacle to switching to the practice of sustainable agriculture. They also indicate 'uncertainty with regards to sustainable agriculture technology' as an impediment to practicing sustainable agriculture. Even so, farmers who believe environmental and regional issues to be the most pressing problems have expanded their practice of sustainable agriculture. The keys to establishing sustainable agriculture system are classified into the following four aspects. Firstly, from an economic aspect, the research indicates that agricultural policy needs to be integrated with environmental policy and that the function of market making based on the value chain needs to be revitalized. Secondly, from an environmental aspect, there is a need for an optimal resource management system to be established in the agricultural sector. In addition, sustainable agriculture practice will need to be extended with attendant environmentally-friendly and sustainable intensive technology also requiring further development. Thirdly, from a social aspect, green agriculture management needs to be fostered, technology and education extended, and social conflict mediated. Lastly, from a governance aspect, it will be necessary to strengthen good governance, assign and share suitable roles and responsibilities, build a cooperation system and utilize community supported agriculture.
