  • In this paper analyzed the impact of innovation of CEOs of small and medium-sized companies, which are rapidly shifting to a digital economy, on corporate performance and how data literacy performs mediating functions. It was confirmed that innovation has a positive effect on corporate performance and that data literacy partially mediates the relationship between innovation and corporate performance. Transformational leadership shows a moderating effect in the relationship between innovation and corporate performance, and transactional leadership showed no moderating effect. Laissez-faire leadership has a moderating effect in the relationship between innovation and data literacy. These results show that innovation is an effective means of improving the organization's management performance, and are expected to awaken the importance of laissez-faire leadership and contribute to the establishment of management strategies.

  • The purpose of this study is to provide implications for improving the safety behavior of university lab students by grasping the relationship between leaders' safety leadership, the lab's safety climate, and individual safety motivation variables. To this end, a survey was conducted on nationwide university laboratories, and the main results are as follows. First, transformational and transactional safety leadership had a positive effect on safety behavior, while the laissez-faire one had a negative impact.Second, it was found that the laboratory safety climate plays a mediating role in the relationship in which safety leadership affects safety behavior. Third, it was found that individual safety motivation was governed by the laboratory safety climate's effect on safety behavior. Fourth, individual safety motivation was found to control the mediating effect of the laboratory safety climate in the relationship between safety leadership and safety behavior. The conclusion of this study is the following: to strengthen the safety behavior of university laboratory students, the laboratory manager must operate the laboratory with a transformational and transactional safety leadership. Additionally, educational institutions must effectively operate their own safety-day programs to create a safe climate for each laboratory and improve students' safety motives.
