Abstract

Since the global financial crisis, the employment rate of young people worldwide has been declining, and the situation in Korea has worsened. Recently, the employment rate has been restored to a small extent due to the implementation of various government policies on youth employment and entrepreneurship, and many young entrepreneurs have been produced. In addition, various types of youth farming enterprises are emerging as the system for encouraging home farmers and villagers and fostering young farmers has been expanded. In this regard, this study examines the influence of CEO's personal characteristics and government's support policies on corporate performance in starting and managing youth rural enterprises. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect on the performance of rural enterprises. Through this study, it will be able to know what are the important factors for young people to achieve results in starting a rural enterprise. The results of this study suggest three implications. The first is that the personal characteristics of the CEO are important for the performance of youth start-up rural enterprises. Second, in support policy, educational support affects performance, but funding policy does not have a significant effect. Third, since ICT's environmental characteristics do not affect the CEO's personal characteristics and support policies and corporate performance, it is more important to find ways to utilize them directly in the field than to develop ICT's environmental characteristics.

글로벌 금융위기 이후로 전 세계적으로 청년들의 고용률이 하락하고 있으며 우리나라의 경우에도 더 악화된 실정이다. 최근 들어 청년고용과 창업과 관련하여 다양한 정부정책의 시행으로 고용률이 적게나마 회복되고 있으며 많은 청년창업가를 배출하고 있다. 또한 귀농과 귀촌을 장려하고 청년농업가를 양성하기 위한 제도가 확대되면서 다양한 형태의 청년농업기업이 생겨나고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 청년농촌기업을 창업하고 경영함에 있어 CEO의 개인적 특성과 정부의 지원정책이 기업성과에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고 최근 첨단기술이 도입된 농업 현장의 트렌드를 고려하여 ICT환경특성이 청년창업 농촌기업의 미치는 효과를 분석해 보고자 했다. 본 연구를 통해 향후 청년들이 농촌기업을 창업함에 있어 성과를 내기 위한 중요한 요소가 무엇인가를 알 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구의 결과로 세 가지의 시사점을 알 수 있었다. 첫째는 청년창업 농촌기업의 성과를 위해서 CEO의 개인적 특성이 중요하다는 것이다. 둘째는 지원정책에 있어 교육지원은 성과에 영향을 끼치지만 자금지원 정책은 유의한 영향을 주지 못한다는 것이다. 셋째는 ICT의 환경특성은 CEO개인특성 및 지원정책과 기업성과 간에 영향을 주지 않고 있기 때문에 ICT의 환경특성의 발전보다는 현장에서 직접 활용하는 방법을 강구하는 것이 더욱 중요한 요소임을 알 수 있다.
