Abstract

Prior studies have reported equivocal patterns of the results about the relationships between family involvement and firm performance, particularly financial performance. In line with this research trend, this study focuses on non-financial performance that agency costs may marginally influence. tries to identify the relationship between nepotism and the three types of innovation performance, namely corporate entrepreneurship, radical innovation performance, and incremental innovation performance. The results has shown that family involvement is positively correlated with the three types of innovation performance.

가족의 경영참여 유무와 관여정도에 따라서 기업성과에는 매우 상이한 결과를 보여주고 있다. 특히 가족의 경영참여(family involvement)는 일반적으로 문제를 야기하는 것으로 알려져 있으나 일부 경우에는 가족의 경영참여가 높은 기업들이 지속적인 성장을 하고 있는 것 또한 현실이다. 본 논문에서는 가족의 경영참여와 다양한 혁신성과(사내기업가 정신, 급진적 혁신, 그리고 점진적 혁신) 사이의 상관관계를 탐색적으로 확인하는 것에 목적을 두고 있다. 중소 중견기업의 중역들을 대상으로 설문을 진행한 결과, 창업자의 가족이 경영에 참여하고 있는 기업들이 일반적으로 높은 수준의 혁신성과를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 경영참여 수준도 모든 혁신성과 지표들과 높은 수준의 상관관계를 가지는 것으로 나타났다.
