최근, 기존 주력산업의 안주, 혁신 기피 현상으로 말미암아 기업 내에서 지속적인 성장 동력에 대한 이슈가 발생하고 있다. 이러한 지속성장의 돌파구로써 새롭게 주목 받고 있는 대안이 바로 사내기업가정신(Corporate Entrepreneurship)이다. 혁신을 촉진시키는 효과적 방안으로 사내기업가정신이 주목받음에 따라, 국내 기업들 사이에서는 사내벤처 형태의 사내기업가 정신 촉진 활동을 통해 혁신적인 신제품/ 신사업을 발굴하며, 계층적이고 경직된 조직문화를 지양하고, 보다 유연하고 혁신적인 조직문화를 정착시키는 시도를 해오고 있다. 본 연구에서는 사내벤처를 운영하는 3개의 국내 기업을 대상으로 사례 연구를 실시하였으며, 사례연구에 있어서는 사내기업가정신 발현유형과 사내기업가정신 활성화 프레임워크를 결합하여 사례를 분석함으로써, 사내기업가정신 발현유형에 따라 사내기업가정신 활성화 제도의 지향점, 운영 등에 있어서 차이가 있음을 규명 하였다.

본 연구는 사내 기업가적 활동, 사회적 네트워크, 환경의 불확실성 그리고 이들 상호간의 상호작용적 영향이 중국 중소기업의 성과에 미치는 영향에 대해 살펴보는 것이다. 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위해 연구자들은 사내 기업가적 활동 그리고 사회적 네트워크가 미치는 영향과 이들의 상호작용이 기업성과에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석하고자 한다. 또한 나아가 지각된 환경의 불확실성이 높을 때 이들의 상호작용이 기업성과에 미치는 영향이 어떻게 달라질 수 있는지를 파악하고자 한다. 실증적 연구는 중국 합비성 안휘시에 있는 첨단 산업의 중소기업을 대상으로 수행되었다. 무작위로 선정된 200개 업체에 설문지를 보내고 응답받은 기업들 중에서 불성실한 것을 제외한 164개의 중소기업체가 최종 표본으로 선정되었다. 가설의 검증은 이들 기업들을 대상으로 이루어졌으며 그 결과 본 연구는 다음과 같은 결론을 도출할 수 있었다. 첫째, 중국 중소기업의 사내 기업가적 활동들은 기업성과에 유의한 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 사회적 네트워크는 그 자체로는 기업성과에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않으나 사내 기업가적 활동들 중에서 특히 혁신 및 벤처링 중심의 활동과는 유의한 상호작용적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 혁신 및 벤처링 활동과 사회적 네트워크의 상호작용은 기업에서 지각하는 환경의 불확실성이 높을 때 기업성과에 더욱 유의한 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 볼 때 기업가적 활동이 기업성과 개선을 위해 중요할 수 있으며, 사회적 네트워크는 기업가적 활동의 내용에 따라서 적절하게 활용되어야 하며, 특히 환경의 불확실성이 높을 때는 외부자원을 최대한 활용하면서 혁신과 벤처링 활동을 강조하는 것이 중국 중소기업에 있어서는 무엇보다 중요할 수 있음을 연구자들은 제시하고자 한다.

This paper reviewed the relationship between corporate entrepreneurship(innovativeness, risktaking, proactiveness) and managerial innovation(organization innovation, human resource innovation), and the moderating effect of shared vision. The data to verify proposed hypothesis consist of the responses from 243 employees in Kyeong-Gi and Kang-Won province. The results of hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that innovativeness and proactiveness are related positively with organization innovation and human resource innovation, but risktaking is not related with innovation. Although risktaking has not effect on human resource innovation, it is appeared that it will be positively related with human resource innovation while shared vision is high.

The purpose of this study was to determine the social engagement network in Sido Muncul’s CSR, the partnership program with farmers, and how the implementation of corporate social entrepreneurship in the program is carried out. The research design uses qualitative methods with a grounded theory approach that tests the validity and reliability of the data using triangulation of data sources and methods, namely, data obtained through documentation and the results of surveys and interviews to more than one observation unit. Data was obtained from surveys and interviews with Sido Muncul’s Public Relations and CSR Division, as well as partner farmers. The results of this study indicate that the social engagement network in Sido Muncul’s partnership program is related to the role of farmer groups, farmer cooperatives, government, NGOs, universities, and private companies as facilitators and control functions, thus creating mutually beneficial relationships with one another. The process of implementing corporate social entrepreneurship in Sido Muncul’s CSR for the partnership program with farmers consists of nine stages: problem identification, coordination with related parties, allocation of resources and commitments, collaboration with NGOs, local entrepreneurs and government, social innovation and the creation of new businesses, documentation of activities, reporting, monitoring and evaluation, as well as publications.

The objective of this study is twofold: first, to investigate how organizations encourage factors that have an impact on employees’ entrepreneurial behavior from employee’s perspectives and experiences; and second, to discover how and why employees behave entrepreneurially within the organization. A case study method is considered as an appropriate approach to scrutinize intrapreneurial behavior because it principally concentrates on an investigation into a contemporary organizational phenomenon and context concerning entrepreneurial activities in-depth within its real situation. In data collection, an Asian multinational retail company was selected. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with 24 executive-level employees who had been working in various departments for more than 5 years. Each in-depth interview lasts for a duration of 40 to 60 minutes. The results reveal several understandings into the combination of individual-level and organizational-level factors that promote the intrapreneurial behavior and activities of the established firm in the context of Thailand. In this regard, six factors have been found as the key determinants that make an impact on innovativeness, proactiveness, and risk-taking behaviour of the employees. Those factors are personal preference, organizational stability, management support, compensation, reward system, teamwork, quality of relationship with colleagues, work autonomy and the quality of relationship with the superiors.

There has been a recent increase in the interest towards founding companies and in line with the South Korean Government’s policy on start-up support, discussions are rife about the effect of entrepreneurship on the management and performances of these companies. To enhance the competitiveness of SMEs, it is expedient to acquire and deploy consistent entrepreneurship, differentiate corporate resources, ensure the appropriate utilization of resources and the integration of such factors in response to the changing environment. This research examines relationships among entrepreneurship, three components of corporate capabilities, dynamic capability and technical performance based on resource-based view and the dynamic capability theory. The authors also investigate the moderating role of corporate life cycle. To test the hypothesis, we conducted a survey on 352 technologies –innovative SMEs located in South Korea via professional research institutes. The findings confirm the hypothesis that SMEs’ entrepreneurship has a positive effect on three kinds of corporate capabilities (e.g., marketing, R&D, operations capability), and it had a positive effect on dynamic capability, whiles dynamic capability also had an influence on technical performances. The findings also confirmed the hypothesis that corporate life cycle moderates the relationship between dynamic capability and technical performances respectively. The research implications for both practitioners and academicians are discussed.
