Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to evaluate two multinational companies that seem to have reconciled the two mandates of CSR and profit maximization while becoming multibillion dollar companies and examine their organizational culture and practices and their management and leadership in order to determine the controlling factors, if any, that have elicited their success while renowned for their CSR policies. Research design, data, and methodology - This is a case study, an analytical approach, which focuses on exploring and analyzing the CSR policies of Starbucks and IKEA. Results - IKEA and Starbucks considered their position in the global business environment and their social responsibilities as crucial and did more than a cursory lip service to the issues. In fact, they both took the more difficult long-term approach and tried to resolve the root causes for the environmental and social issues in their supply chain. Ultimately though, it is the ethical leadership of the top management that sets the tone for the organizational culture and its CSR. Conclusion - IKEA and Starbucks are "living proof" that a company can be successful while treating its employees and the community of suppliers and associates with respect and dignity and while making this world a better place.

인류 문명사에서 패권을 차지한 국가의 경우 지속적인 확장을 통해 문명을 발달시켜왔듯, 기업들 또한 끊임없이 소비자 마음을 차지하기 위한 '전쟁(Campaign)'을 치루고 있다는 점에서 동일하다. 국가나 기업이나 성공과 실패의 사례를 살펴보면 특정한 반복적인 '유형(Pattern)'을 찾아볼 수 있다. 본 논문은 세계적 프랜차이즈 기업인 버거킹의 성공과 실패요인을 '시장 동태성(dynamism)' 관점에서 파악하고 그 시사점에 대해 논의해 보았다. 기업의 성패는 한 국가의 패턴처럼 성장과 침식 및 정체 그리고 쇠퇴를 하거나 끊임 없는 자구책으로 재활성화를 통해 지속적인 성장을 추구한다. 버거킹 또한 성장기에는 공격적이고 창의적인 마케팅 활동으로 차별화된 버거킹만의 브랜딩을 성공적으로 전개해왔다. 그러나 창업주의 경영권 매각과 이후 연이은 경영권의 교체로 인해, 일관된 기업 철학과 브랜드 관리를 소홀히 할 수밖에 없었으며, 결국 웰빙 트렌드라는 외부 위협으로 인해 증시에서 상장 폐지되는 커다란 '위기(공명)'를 맞이하게 된다. 최근 들어 버거킹은 과거의 영광을 되찾기 위해 국내외 시장에서 공격적인 마케팅 활동을 전개하고 있으며, 세계 최고의 레스토랑을 지향함으로써 브랜드 자산 가치를 더욱 강화하고 있다. 버거킹의 브랜드 사례는 성공을 꿈꾸는 많은 프랜차이즈 기업들에게 '창의적이고 혁신적인 아이디어'가 세계적인 기업이 되는 데 왜 필요한지에 대해 새로운 시사점을 제공할 것이다.

1992년 BSC가 소개된 이후로 회사에서 직원의 행동과 목표에 조직의 전략을 조절하는 효과적인 관리도구로 알려지기 시작했다. 비록 사람들은 많은 회사들이 BSC를 통하여 그들의 업무에서 많은 효과성을 높였다고 알고 있지만, 공기업의 경우는 민간기업과 특성이 다르기 때문에 경영혁신 도구로서 BSC 구축시 많은 어려움을 겪고 있는 실정이다. 많은 공기업들 중에서 KOTRA의 BSC는 초기에 도입되었고, 매우 높은 평가를 받고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 KOTRA의 BSC 시스템 구축사례를 통하여 성공요인들과 문제점들을 제시하였고, 나아가서는 국내 공기업에서 BSC시스템을 성공적으로 구축하는데 좋은 참조모형이 되리라 사료되어진다.

Measuring Information Technology(IT) organizations' activities have been limited to mainly measure financial indicators for a long time. However, according to the multifarious functions of Information System, a number of researches have been done for the new trends on measurement methodologies that come with financial measurement as well as new measurement methods. Especially, the researches on IT Balanced Scorecard(BSC), concept from BSC measuring IT activities have been done as well in recent years. BSC provides more advantages than only integration of non-financial measures in a performance measurement system. The core of BSC rests on the cause-and-effect relationships between measures to allow prediction of value chain performance measures to allow prediction of value chain performance measures, communication, and realization of the corporate strategy and incentive controlled actions. More recently, BSC proponents have focused on the need to tie measures together into a causal chain of performance, and to test the validity of these hypothesized effects to guide the development of strategy. Kaplan and Norton[2001] argue that one of the primary benefits of the balanced scorecard is its use in gauging the success of strategy. Norreklit[2000] insist that the cause-and-effect chain is central to the balanced scorecard. The cause-and-effect chain is also central to the IT BSC. However, prior researches on relationship between information system and enterprise strategies as well as connection between various IT performance measurement indicators are not so much studied. Ittner et al.[2003] report that 77% of all surveyed companies with an implemented BSC place no or only little interest on soundly modeled cause-and-effect relationships despite of the importance of cause-and-effect chains as an integral part of BSC. This shortcoming can be explained with one theoretical and one practical reason[Blumenberg and Hinz, 2006]. From a theoretical point of view, causalities within the BSC method and their application are only vaguely described by Kaplan and Norton. From a practical consideration, modeling corporate causalities is a complex task due to tedious data acquisition and following reliability maintenance. However, cause-and effect relationships are an essential part of BSCs because they differentiate performance measurement systems like BSCs from simple key performance indicator(KPI) lists. KPI lists present an ad-hoc collection of measures to managers but do not allow for a comprehensive view on corporate performance. Instead, performance measurement system like BSCs tries to model the relationships of the underlying value chain in cause-and-effect relationships. Therefore, to overcome the deficiencies of causal modeling in IT BSC, sound and robust causal modeling approaches are required in theory as well as in practice for offering a solution. The propose of this study is to suggest critical success factors(CSFs) and KPIs for measuring performance for IT organizations and empirically validate the casual relationships between those CSFs. For this purpose, we define four perspectives of BSC for IT organizations according to Van Grembergen's study[2000] as follows. The Future Orientation perspective represents the human and technology resources needed by IT to deliver its services. The Operational Excellence perspective represents the IT processes employed to develop and deliver the applications. The User Orientation perspective represents the user evaluation of IT. The Business Contribution perspective captures the business value of the IT investments. Each of these perspectives has to be translated into corresponding metrics and measures that assess the current situations. This study suggests 12 CSFs for IT BSC based on the previous IT BSC's studies and COBIT 4.1. These CSFs consist of 51 KPIs. We defines the cause-and-effect relationships among BSC CSFs for IT Organizations as follows. The Future Orientation perspective will have positive effects on the Operational Excellence perspective. Then the Operational Excellence perspective will have positive effects on the User Orientation perspective. Finally, the User Orientation perspective will have positive effects on the Business Contribution perspective. This research tests the validity of these hypothesized casual effects and the sub-hypothesized causal relationships. For the purpose, we used the Partial Least Squares approach to Structural Equation Modeling(or PLS Path Modeling) for analyzing multiple IT BSC CSFs. The PLS path modeling has special abilities that make it more appropriate than other techniques, such as multiple regression and LISREL, when analyzing small sample sizes. Recently the use of PLS path modeling has been gaining interests and use among IS researchers in recent years because of its ability to model latent constructs under conditions of nonormality and with small to medium sample sizes(Chin et al., 2003). The empirical results of our study using PLS path modeling show that the casual effects in IT BSC significantly exist partially in our hypotheses.

A subcontract work order is the basis of the construction process and consists of the root and trunk of the construction industry. The construction process through a subcontract work order is an important element of project success, and it is the basic unit of creating profit in the construction industry. Therefore, correct analysis and forecasting of subcontract work orders allow correct estimation of construction cost and profit which is the foundation of corporate decision making. This study has started to provide predictions of subcontractor's bidding-ratio for decision-making. Since the actual project data has been used in this study, the contribution level of the model is highly expected in actual field. The statistical confidential level of adjusted decision coefficient is concluded low because of limited sample numbers. However, its accuracy and confidence level can be increased through increasing sample numbers, considering more variables, and studying of reducing error.

Learning has become an important aspect for any organization to stay relevant and competitive in the corporate world of survival. In construction industry, the international construction joint ventures (ICJVs) provide an excellent platform with opportunity of learning among partners seeking to develop new area of competency and improve their overall competitiveness for their next project endeavor. This paper discusses the development of a conceptual model of effective learning in ICJVs using four major stages of development in a typical joint venture (JV) 's process. The study identified that there are three key constructs that contribute to effective learning comprising learning conditions in the JV's pre-inception stage, success factors of JV for learning in the forming & organizing stage, and learning actions in the implementation & adjustment stage. The effective learning outcomes are measured by the characteristics of learning organization during the JV's completion & evaluation stage. Details and issues of each stage and the methodology of research will be presented and discussed.
