효율적인 글로벌 생산경영은 각국에 위치한 생산시설을 통제·운영(control)해야 하는 글로벌 기업(다국적기업)에게 중요한 문제가 되고 있다. 각 나라에 위치한 생산시설은 글로벌기업의 생산네트워크를 구성하는데, 효율적인 글로벌 생산경영을 위해서는 이러한 글로벌 생산네트워크가 최적으로 운영되어야 한다. 글로벌기업은 협력·조정 메커니즘(coordination mechanism)을 통하여 이를 달성할 수 있다. 글로벌 협력·조정 메커니즘(global coordination mechanism)이란 글로벌 기업의 본사와 해외자회사 모두의 생산활동에 상호 영향을 미치는 의사결정을 하는데 있어서 서로 협력하고 조정할 수 있도록 해주는 조직적 의사결정지원 시스템의 하나이다. 이는 협력·조정의 영역, 방법, 구조 등 세가지 기본 틀을 살펴봄으로써 이해될 수 있다는 것이 본 논문의 기본 전제이다. 이 논문에서는 한국 글로벌기업의 본사와 해외 자회사간 협력·조정 활동을 분석하여, 해외 자회사의 생산성과를 높이기 위한 효과적인 협력·조정 메커니즘의 결정요소를 파악하고자 한다. 실증분석을 통하여 다음과 같은 가설을 검증한다. (1) 산업의 특성은 협력·조정 메커니즘과 글로벌 생산성과 간의 상호관계에 영향을 미친다. (2) 글로벌기업의 특성(예를 들어, 기업의 글로벌화 정도, 규모)은 협력·조정 메커니즘과 글로벌 생산성과 간의 상호관계에 영향을 미친다. (3) 산업과 기업의 특성을 반영하여 협력·조정 메커니즘의 구성요소 (협력·조정 영역, 방법, 및 구조) 간의 적합성(fit)이 이루어졌을 때 글로벌 생산성과는 가장 높다.

In this paper, we tries to investigate whether there are some differences of the characteristics between venture business in the metropolitan area and in the local area. We set up some hypotheses on the regional characteristics of venture business and test those using the raw data of Small and Medium Business Administration (SMBA) survey on the management of venture business. Our main findings are as follows: First, we analyze the industrial composition of ventures by region and find that in the metropolitan area high-technology venture business which is belong to software, or information, or communication industries is given much weight. But in the provinces, ventures belong to traditional manufacturing industries is given much weight. Second, we compared the characteristics of business network by region and find that the ventures in the metropolitan area are active in technical cooperation among companies and want strategic tie-ups in marketing field, whereas the ventures in the provinces are active in technical cooperation with university and want strategic tie-ups in technical development field. Third, ventures in the metropolitan area are more excellent in technical development and management than ventures in the provinces.

This study analyzes the impact of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities on financial performances using Bayesian Network. The research tries to overcome the issues of the uniform assumption of a linear function between financial performance and CSR activities in multiple regression analysis widely used in previous studies. It is required to infer a causal relationship between activities of CSR which have an impact on the financial performances. Identifying the relationship would empower the firms to improve their financial performance by informing the decision makers about the different CSR activities that influence the financial performance of the firms. This research proposes General Bayesian Network (GBN) and presents Markov Blanket induced from GBN. It is empirically demonstrated that all the proposals presented in this study are statistically significant by the results of the research conducted by Korean Economic Justice Institute (KEJI) under Citizen's Coalition for Economic Justice (CCEJ) which investigated approximately 200 companies in Korea based on Korean Economic Justice Institute Index (KEJI index) from 2005 to 2011. The Bayesian Network to effectively infer the properties affecting financial performances through the probabilistic causal relationship. Moreover, I found that there is a causal relationship among CSR activities variable; that is Environment protection is related to Customer protection, Employee satisfaction, and firm size; Soundness is related to Total CSR Evaluation Score, Debt-Assets Ratio. Though the what-if analysis, I suggest to the sensitive factor among the explanatory variables.

Due to the recent mid- to long-term slump and falling growth rates in the global economy, interest in organizational structures that create new products or services as a new alternative to survive and develop in an opaque environment both internally and externally, and enhance organizational sustainability through changes in production methods and business innovation is increasing day by day. In this atmosphere, we agree that the growth of small and medium-sized venture companies has a significant impact on the national economy, and various efforts are being made to enhance the technological innovation capabilities of the members so that these small and medium-sized venture companies can enhance and sustain their performance. The purpose of this study is also to investigate how the technological innovation capabilities of small and medium-sized venture companies correlate with the performance of knowledge management and to analyze the role of network capabilities to organize the strategic activities of enterprise to obtain the resources and organizational capabilities to be used for value creation from external networks. In other words, research was conducted on the impact of technological innovation capabilities of small and medium venture companies on knowledge management performance by using network capabilities as parameters. Therefore, in this study, we would like to verify the hypothesis that innovation capabilities will have a positive impact on knowledge management performance by using network capabilities of small and medium venture companies. Economic activities based on technological innovation capabilities should respond quickly to new changes in an environment where uncertainty has increased, and lead to macro-economic growth and development as well as overcoming long-term economic downturns so that they can become the nation's new growth engine as well as sustainable growth and survival of the organization. In addition, this study was conducted by setting the most important knowledge management performance within the organization as a dependent variable. As a result, R&D and learning capabilities among technological innovation capabilities have no impact on financial performance. In contrast, it was shown that corporate innovation activities have a positive impact on both financial and non-financial performance. The fact that non-financial factors such as quality and productivity improvement are identified in the management of small and medium-sized venture companies utilizing their technological innovation capabilities is contrary to a number of studies by those corporate innovation activities affect financial performance during prior research. The reason for this result is that research companies have been out of start-up companies for more than seven years, but sales are less than 10 billion won, and unlike start-up companies, R&D and learning capabilities have more positive effects on intangible non-financial performance than financial performance. Corporate innovation activities have been shown to have a positive (+) impact on both financial and non-financial performance, while R&D and learning capabilities have a positive (+) impact on financial performance by parameters of network capability. Corporate innovation activities have been shown to have no impact on both financial and non-financial performance, and R&D and learning capabilities have no impact on non-financial performance. It could be seen that the parameter effects of network competency are limited to when R&D and learning competencies are derived from quantitative financial performance. It could be seen that the parameter effects of network competency are limited to when R&D and learning competencies are derived from quantitative financial performance.

Companies shall hold social responsibility as a member of the social community. Corporate social responsibility uses corporate resources, yet it plays important roles in reducing social imbalance. Their responsibilities are highly associated with the corporate sustainability. Many earlier studies on the association between corporate social responsibility and corporate sustainability have been attempted. Yet it should be mentioned that they do not show a variety of realities as linearity between dependent variables and independent variables were assumed. Thus, this study aims to analyze Markov blanket, a node of minimum descriptive variables that relieve a rigid assumption among variables and affect corporate sustainability by using Bayesian network. Sensitivity analysis was used to elicit how other variables affect by reflecting the complex reality when real factors are changed. As an important result of this study, the firm's future earnings sustainability is naturally related to operating earnings, and as the corporate governance structure is sound, the firm is able to steadily fulfill its social responsibility. However, the fact that the size of a company is large does not mean that it is in good compliance with corporate laws. This would not be unrelated to the fact that many of today's companies are not complying with the law and are suffering social condemnation. Results from this study will serve as a useful analytic tool when investors and creditors showing interests in corporate sustainability for assessing the value of companies and making investment decisions. Moreover, they can be used as references for relevant agency supervising capital markets to establish or improve appropriate institutions aimed at improving corporate sustainability.
