Purpose - The purpose of this study is to identify the factors of shocking events in the career aspect experienced by Korean workers in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, and to find out whether these career shocks affect individual perceptions of the importance of subjective career success. Design/methodology/approach - In the survey of 146 respondents, the career shock events experienced in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic were largely divided into three categories; 'work change', 'employment anxiety', and 'life anxiety'. For the subjective career success, seven dimensions - 'financial security', 'financial achievement', 'entrepreneurship', 'positive relationship', 'positive impact', 'learning and development', 'work-life balance' - were used. Findings - As a result, there was no difference in the perception of subjective career success due to the experience of 'work change' during the Covid-19 period. However, the respondents who experienced 'employment anxiety' came to recognize that 'financial security' and 'financial achievement' were more increasing in terms of the degree of difference of importance. And respondents who experienced 'lifetime anxiety' perceived that the degree of difference of importance was increasing in the six dimensions except for 'social influence'. Particularly, the increase in the importance of 'work-life balance' and 'positive relationship' was found to be the greatest among the career success dimensions. Research implications or Originality - Finally, it was concluded that changes in the external environment such as Covid-19 pandemic influence as a career shock and affect the level of importance in subjective career success perception. Based on the results, the theoretical implication on current career study and some practical implications for organizational career management were suggested.

The brand consulting for paving the way for overseas-based companies to develop local brands includes many processes such as the analysis of local markets and consumers, the analysis of in-and-out circumstances including the diagnosis of corporate competence and resource, the establishment of brand strategies, the development of brand concepts, and the development of design, which should be performed before the eventual launch of overseas markets. So, the success of overseas-based brand consulting just depends on coworking(i.e., consortium) by brand experts from international marketing, design to local-overseas brand rights which have been barely touched upon by the brand experts. This study aims to present brand consulting framework and to support the development of local-fit brands when the small and medium industries, esteemed relatively less compatible than conglomerates, expand their business in the non-English-speaking countries. This study also includes the results of a demand inquiry on the local fit brand targeted for SMEs. As a brand consulting framework which has been performed at work sites through the accumulated many year's trial and error, it could be a significantly meaningful guidance for the brand experts who perform local-fit brands consulting and the SMEs who look for overseas-based brand consulting.

This paper analyzes cognition of the vocational training (VT) CEOs on the theoretical success conditions of contracting-out VT services to private training providers, by using survey results on 87 CEOs. The survey results show that VT CEOs agree with most of the theoretical success conditions of contracting-out VT services. The only thing they do not agree with the theoretical success conditions was that CEOs prefer direct trainee recruiting instead of referral by public employment service offices after consulting and job capacity assessment. This implies that government can smoothly transfer vocational training policies suitable for the success conditions of contracting-out vocational training services to private training providers.

지난 수년간, IT 비용의 지속적인 증가에 따른 IT 투자 의사결정 및 평가를 위한 성과 분석은 최근 가장 주요한 이슈가 되고 있다. IT 투자와 성과간의 상관 관계를 규명하기 위한 수많은 노력에도 불구하고 IT 투자 성과 측정의 어려움과 이에 영향을 미치는 요소들의 복합성으로 인하여 낮은 IT 투자 성과의 원인을 제시하는 것은 여전히 쉽지 않은 문제이다. 본 연구는 실제 IT 투자 규모와 IT 투자 성과간의 상관관계를 분석하고, 이에 조직, IS프로젝트, 사용자 요인들이 어떻게 영향을 미치는지 나타내고자 하였다. 2개 제조업체의 총 44개의 단위시스템들에 대하여, IT 투자 비용은 형태별로, IT 투자 성과는 정성적, 정량적인 효과를 정보, 시스템, 사용자, 조직효과 관점에서 측정하고 있다. 또한, 각 시스템을 구축하였던 업무 담당자들, 사용자들에 대한 인터뷰 및 설문을 통하여 조직, IS프로젝트, 사용자 요인을 측정하고 있다. 본 연구는 효과적인 IT 투자 성과를 얻기 위해서는, 절대적인 IT 투자 규모도 중요하지만 구체적인 정보전략계획의 수립, 경영진의 지원, 사용자의 적극적 참여와 같은 IT 투자 실행의 중요성을 제시하고 있다. 이들 결과를 바탕으로 IT 투자를 고려하고 있는 기업들에게 효과적인 투자 방안을 제시할 수 있을 것이다.

Major developed countries are seriously considering smart factories to increase their manufacturing competitiveness. Smart factory is a customized factory that incorporates ICT in the entire process from product planning to design, distribution and sales. This can reduce production costs and respond flexibly to the consumer market. The smart factory converts physical signals into digital signals, connects machines, parts, factories, manufacturing processes, people, and supply chain partners in the factory to each other, and uses the collected data to enable the smart factory platform to operate intelligently. Enhancing personalized value is the key. Therefore, it can be said that the success or failure of a smart factory depends on whether big data is secured and utilized. Standardized communication and collaboration are required to smoothly acquire big data inside and outside the factory in the smart factory, and the use of big data can be maximized through big data analysis. This study examines big data analysis and standardization in smart factory. Manufacturing innovation by country, smart factory construction framework, smart factory implementation key elements, big data analysis and visualization, etc. will be reviewed first. Through this, we propose services such as big data infrastructure construction process, big data platform components, big data modeling, big data quality management components, big data standardization, and big data implementation consulting that can be suggested when building big data infrastructure in smart factories. It is expected that this proposal can be a guide for building big data infrastructure for companies that want to introduce a smart factory.
