초록

기존 경영학 문헌에서 기업집단은 개발도상국, 재무시장이 발달하지 못한 국가에서 일시적으로 존재하는 기업의 형태라고 여겨졌다. 그러나 기업집단의 한국적 형태인 재벌은, 대한민국이 선진국으로 거듭나고 국내 재무시장이 발달하였음에도 불구하고, 여전히 주요한 기업의 형태로 존속하고 있다. 본 이론 연구에서는 이러한 기존 이론과 현상의 불일치를 규명하기 위해, 재벌가 출신 창업가에 대한 이론적 연구 모형을 제시한다. 첫째, 본 연구에서는 사회적, 기업지배 구조적, 재벌가 구성원 본인들의 심리적 요인들은 재벌가 구성원들이 창업가로 거듭나는 긍정적 동기로 작용함을 제안한다. 둘째, 이들이 운영하는 기업은 더 나은 기회 포착, 재무적 지원, 원활한 채용, 활발한 마케팅 및 기업간 협력 관계 구축을 통해 여타의 창업가들보다 더 빠른 성장을 달성할 것임을 주장한다. 본 이론 논문은 대한민국 재벌가 출신의 창업을 통한 재벌 집단의 새로운 확장 가능성을 제시함으로써 기업집단 및 창업 연구의 발전에 기여하고자 한다.

While the current literature has considered business group as a temporary form of organizations that only exists under the developing contries with under-developed financial markets. Chaebol, a form of businss group in Korea, has sustained as a major organization form in Korea. To fill the current gap in the literature and practice, I suggest a theoretical model of Chaebol scion's entrepreneurial firm growth mechanisms. First, I posit that social, structural, and psychological factors motivate Chaebol scions to engage in entrepreneurship. Second, I suggest that five mechanisms, including business opportunity, financial support, recruitment, marketing, and inter-organizational collaboration, will facilitate entrepreneurial firm growth. By constituting a model of Chaebol scion's entrepreneurial firm growth, the current theoretical paper advances the literature on business group and entrepreneurship with indicating Korean Chaebol's new expansion possibilities.
