Abstract

The purpose of the present study is to analyze how and to what degree multinational companies organize and operate their supply chains in accordance with the strategic resource of knowledge in their multinational management, and what kind of influence knowledge oriented global supply chain management has on the management performance of multinational corporations. For this purpose, the current research proposed a measurement model to provide specific shape to the concept of knowledge oriented global supply chain management by adopting the knowledge creation process proposed by Nonaka (1994), and conducted an empirical analysis of what kind of impact the knowledge management system and the knowledge creation process of companies have on the performance of their global supply chain management. The result of the empirical analysis of 113 multinational companies verified the validity and reliability of the measurement model proposed in this study. In addition, the comparative study of the sampled companies by grouping them according to the level of knowledge orientation in global supply chain management indicated that the enterprises that effectively manage the knowledge created within the global supply chain presented overall superiority on the performance of global supply chain management.

본 연구는 다국적 기업들이 그들의 글로벌 공급사슬을 얼마나 지식이라는 전략적 자원에 기초하여 조직하고 운영하고 있는지, 그리고 지식을 지향하는 공급사슬관리가 기업의 글로벌 공급사슬관리 성과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 분석하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 이를 위해 Nonaka(1994) 등이 제시한 지식창조 프로세스를 적용하여 지식지향 글로벌 공급사슬관리의 개념을 구체화하는 측정모형을 제안하였으며 기업의 지식경영 시스템과 지식창조 프로세스가 기업의 글로벌 공급사슬관리 성과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 113개의 다국적 기업을 대상으로 한 실증분석을 통해 본 연구에서 제안한 측정모형의 타당성과 신뢰성을 검증하였다. 또한 표본 기업들을 글로벌 공급사슬관리에 있어서의 지식지향 수준에 따라 군집화하여 비교분석한 결과, 글로벌 공급사슬상에서 창출되는 지식을 효과적으로 관리하는 기업들이 글로벌 공급사슬관리 성과에 있어서도 전반적인 우위를 나타내는 것으로 분석되었다.
