본 연구에서는 기업 내 기업가정신(Corporate Entrepreneurship)의 주요 변수에 대한 탐색적 연구를 통해 기업의 최종 변수인 성과(Performance)에 대한 영향 요인을 고찰하고자 한다. 지금까지 국내에서는 개인 수준의 기업가정신(Entrepreneurship)에 대한 연구는 활발하게 이뤄지고 있지만, 조직 수준의 기업가정신(Entrepreneurship)에 대한 소개는 부족한 것이 현실이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기업 내부에서 발생하는 기업가정신에 대한 구조적인 이해와 더불어 최종적인 종속변수인 기업 성과에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소인 기업가지향성(Entrepreneurial Orientation)과 학습지향성(Learning Orientation)에 대한 실증적 연구에 앞서 기본적인 개념을 살펴보고자 한다.

The paper explores determinants of corporate adoption of social media and the role of technology acceptance model in the path. This paper assimilates some components of the technology acceptance dimension and social expectation theories to determine corporate intentions to use social media. Six hundred and forty-eight samples collected from hotel staff in Korea are analyzed using factor analysis, structural equation model techniques and one-way analysis of variance. The results show that corporate needs, social expectations, ease of use and usefulness should be viewed as important antecedents explaining the firm's behavioral intention to use social media. The study also finds that the ease of use and usefulness of the technology acceptance model have positive directional mediation effects in the path diagram.

Many countries around the world are pursuing various support policies to foster start-ups national widely in order to secure new economic growth engines in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The South Korean government announced the diffusion strategy for the 2'nd round Start-up Boom in March 2019 and is promoting the support policies for start-up incubating by various programs. Many incubators and startup accelerators operate various kinds of programs to foster start-ups using government financial supports. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of entrepreneurship and technical capability of entrepreneurs as the internal factors of the technology-based start-ups and the effects of programs supported by the government as an external factor on the corporate performance of a start-up company, and the mediating effects of core competence of start-ups were analyzed using SPSS and AMOS. The results show that the entrepreneurship, technical capability and the programs supported by incubators or accelerators had no direct effects on the corporate performance of a start-up, but the core competence of the company had complete mediating effects. In addition, the type of program supported by the comprehensive accelerator programs or the marketing supports had effects on the core competence rather than simple financial supports. Lastly, the policy proposals for incubating program support and future research directions along with the limitation are suggested.

This study investigates the effect of the organizational preparedness for corporate entrepreneurship(OPCE) on innovative behavior, with a focus on the mediating role of resilience. Building on literature regarding the OPCE and resilience, hypotheses are developed and tested using data collected from 217 middle managers in South Korean small and medium-sized enterprises. Results show that the OPCE has both direct and indirect effects on the consequence. Resilience is also found to be positively associated with innovative behavior. It also find that resilience mediates the relationship between OPCE and innovative behavior. These findings suggest that the perception of middle managers on OPCE contributes to developing their resilience, which in turn encourages them to act entrepreneurially. Theoretical and practical implications, limitations and suggestions for future studies are presented.

Although it is a limited and exploratory study, it is focused on figuring out correlations between characteristics of female CEOs who founded a company and their managerial achievements. Toward this end, the study is focused on generating such determinants as background characteristics, behavioral features and competence traits that characterize female CEOs based on previous studies and existing literature while suggesting study models and assumptions on correlations between these factors and managerial achievements and conducting empirical analyses. Results of the empirical analyses are as follows. First, regression analyses that verified relationships between background characteristics of female corporate founders and managerial achievements have found that major subjects had a significant effect, but that their experiences in corporate foundation and careers did not. Second, regression analyses that verified behavioral characteristics of female corporate CEOs and their managerial achievements have found that credibility and the motive for corporation foundation had a significant impact, but that efforts to counter risks factors did not. Third, regression analyses that verified relationships between competence features of female corporate CEOs and managerial achievements have found that managerial control capability had a significant impact, but that entrepreneurial capability and technical capability.

This study aims at researching whether business founders' psychological characteristics, behavioral characteristics, and career characteristics have influence upon corporate performance and whether business founders' career characteristics and start-up education experience have influence upon corporate performance targeting business founders of start-up business-incubated companies. As a result of this study, business founders' psychological characteristics(achievement desire, risk-endurance propensity) were indicated to have significant influence upon corporate performance. On the other hand, business founders' behavioral characteristics were indicated to have no influence upon corporate performance. Also, it is seen to have clarified that business founders' career characteristics, past practical-affairs experience during start-up education business, and job-life experience are important factors of having significant influence upon corporate performance. These findings are expected to give many implications even to preliminary business founders as well as establishment in supportive direction and effective development of start-up business-incubated companies. Accordingly, the implication is seen to have been suggested that the services, which the business incubator supports the living-in companies, need to be planned and offered by considering business founders' characteristics of start-up business.

Discussions on entrepreneurship are increasing, but the methodology that can be applied to actual small to mid-sized businesses and venture firms is insufficient, and research on measuring achievement and application is lacking. In this regard, this paper analyzed actual proof on the relationship among entrepreneurial orientation, R&D capabilities, market share, and the creation of BSC future values that can be empirically applied to small to mid-sized businesses and venture firms. A factor analysis and hypothesis verification have been conducted with the SEM model utilizing SmartPLS 3.0 on the recent 7th year (2017) data from the Human Capital Corporate Panel (HCCP) of the Korea Research Institute for Vocational Education and Training. The actual proof analysis revealed that entrepreneurial orientation creates a positive influence on R&D capabilities and the creation of BSC, and also on market share, with R&D capabilities as a parameter. On the other hand, the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and market share proved to be not statistically meaningful. Future value creation of BSC also could not mediate the relation between entrepreneurial orientation and market share. Therefore, this research has proven that a company must cultivate its personnel's R&D capabilities with their entrepreneurial orientation. Furthermore, it is a significant fact that BSC, the conventional measuring tool for performance management, could not mediate the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and market share. Future companies aiming at innovation should consider developing a new index that could measure the corporate-level entrepreneurship and conduct performance management.

In this paper, we investigate the recent trend of regional entrepreneurship of 16 cities and provinces in Korea after 2000. In addition we analyze the impact of determinants on regional entrepreneurship. The recent overall trend of entrepreneurship shows a quite drastic decline in 2008. Specially, it is observed that larger cities show more drastic shrinks in entrepreneurship comparing to previous years. We also confirm four major determinants such as R&D, protecting ownership, industrial diversity, and the size of local government that are statistically significant. We suggest some empirical evidence for that entrepreneurship is positively related with enhancing R&D activities and ownership right through patent. It is also found that the faster growth of local government expenditure than the growth of GRDP deters entrepreneurship manifestation. However, we have a significant yet mixed sign on the coefficient of the industrial diversity. Even if the industrial diversity seems to have no statistically significant impact on regional entrepreneurship, we provide some empirical evidence that it fosters the activities of privately owned small businesses while the industrial concentration does those of corporate firms.
