The role of CIO is examined in the context of three successful e-government implementations in the U.S. The leadership role of CIO turns out to be crucial to the utilization of information technology for competitive gains: cheap government, speedy service, and increased satisfaction of citizens. A balanced leadership model emerges. An effective CIO should strike a balance between strategic and operational leadership roles, as well as between forceful and enabling leadership roles. To take a maximum advantage of IT, we propose government CIO positions with responsibility, power, and qualification specified along the balanced leadership model need to be created in Korea through legislation.

This study investigates the wealth effect of foreign acquisition of U.S. based firms. Contrary to previous studies, this analysis demonstrates that after appropriate control of domestic-acquired targets, the wealth gains to the shareholders of targets in foreign takeovers are similar to those in domestic takeovers. This paper investigates the validity of the competitive acquisition market in cross-border takeovers and concludes that : 1) in cases of inward foreign direct investment into the U.S., foreign firms do not realize significant net benefits from acquisitions; and 2) the foreign acquirer is as well informed as its U.S, counterparts about the target's market. The results of this study are consistent with the view that each country has different motivations for investing in the U.S. market. Consider, for example, Japan. The evidence suggests that Japanese companies pay a considerable price for U.S. targets which have performed poorly before the takeover. While there is no specific rationale to explain why Japanese firms buy the most volatile and worst performing firms, international barriers may provide a possible reason for these anomalies. Overall, the evidence of this paper supports the view that foreign takeovers occur in a competitive acquisition market.

본 연구는 우리나라 전력산업의 구조개편이 발전회사의 효율성 변화에 미친 영향을 측정한다. 이를 위해 1990년부터 2005년까지의 세부적인 발전회사별 불균형(unbalanced) 패널데이터를 사용하여 기업의 비용최소화 조건으로부터 도출된 요소수요함수와 연료의 효율적인 사용을 의미하는 발열량(caloric consumption)의 함수를 추정한다. 회귀분석 결과에 따르면 발전회사는 각각 2001년 자회사로 분할된 이후와 1999년 구조개편기본안이 확정되어 발표된 이후에야 비로소 비용을 절감하고 인원을 감축한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 발열량의 변화를 추정한 회귀방정식의 결과에 따르면 다양한 구조개편의 영향하에서도 연료사용의 효율성이 증가하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 본 연구의 분석 결과는 그 동안 경제학자들이 꾸준히 제기하여온 전력산업의 구조개편에 대한 당위성을 실증적으로 뒷받침한다.

무역자유화(貿易自由化)나 지역경제통합(地域經濟統合)의 경제적(經濟的) 효과(效果)를 논의할 때 시장구조(市場構造)와 규모(規模)의 경제(經濟)와 관련된 개방효과(開放效果)를 분석(分析)하는 것이 중요하다. 잠재시장(潛在市場)의 크기가 확대되는 데에 따르는 제품차별화(製品差別化)의 심화(深化)나 규모(規模)의 경제실현(經濟實現)은 '무역(貿易)의 이익(利益)'의 차원(次元)을 확장시킨다. 개방(開放)에 따르는 해외로부터의 경쟁강화(競爭强化)는 국내기업(國內企業)의 경쟁환경(競爭環境)을 심화(深化)시켜 시장진입(市場進入) 퇴출(退出)과 산업합리화(産業合理化)에 영향을 미치기 때문이다. 본고(本稿)는 무역장벽완화(貿易障壁緩和)가 유발하는 자원배분효과(資源配分效果) 및 후생효과(厚生效果)뿐만 아니라, 시장구조(市場構造)가 불완전경쟁적(不完全競爭的)이고 생산과정(生産過程)에 규모(規模)의 경제(經濟)가 존재(存在)하기 때문에 나타나는 '개방(開放)의 이익(利益)'을 가상적(假想的)인 한국(韓國) 일본(日本)의 쌍무적(雙務的) 관세인하효과분석(關稅引下效果分析)을 중심으로 검토하고 있다. 이를 위하여 전산업을 완전경쟁적(完全競爭的) 산업(産業), 불완전경쟁적(不完全競爭的) 산업(産業), 비교역산업(非交易産業)으로 구성되는 30개 산업으로 분류하였으며, 가상적(假想的)인 관세인하(關稅引下)(한국(韓國)의 경우 법정관세 인하, 일본(日本)의 경우 실적관세율 50%인하)를 상정(想定)하여 이것이 양국의 산업에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 관세인하는 산업내(産業內) 무역(貿易)을 증가(增加)시킬 것이나, 산업합리화(産業合理化) 효과(效果)나 규모(規模)의 경제(經濟) 실현(實現)에 미치는 영향은 크지 않을 것으로 추정된다. 또한 관세인하(關稅引下)로 한국(韓國)과 일본(日本)의 총수출(總輸出)과 총수입(總輸入)이 모두 증가하나, 한국(韓國)의 경우 수출증가보다 수입증가가 큰 반면 일본(日本)의 경우 수입증가보다 수출증가가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 한편 관세인하로 한국(韓國)과 일본(日本)의 총산출증가(總産出增加)가 예상되는데, 증가폭은 각각 0.5~0.6%에 이를 것으로 예상된다.

The present paper determines the equilibrium price function of used goods and their carry-over age when there are heterogeneous firms with different factor prices. It is shown that the used good market enables more efficient use of durable goods and thereby gains from trades. It is also shown that firms with a lower interest rate and a higher wage rate specialize in using newer goods.

Purpose - This study attempted to discover the impact of the Korea-China FTA(Free Trade Agreement) on electronic products distribution industry. Strategies will be provided to expand both countries' trade after the Korea-China FTA. Research design, data, and methodology - This study analyzed the differences before and after the Korea-China FTA, using an RCA(Revealed Comparative Advantage) index, TC(Technology Sophistication Index) index and TSI(Trade Specialization Index) that considered the FTA tariff situation. Data was collected from the International Trade Statistics Database and Korea, China Customs Service. Results - The results indicate that following the Korea-China FTA, China and Korea's bilateral trade of electronic products is expected to expand, and both countries will experience net welfare gains from the markets' expansion. Korea is competitive in several key products, although it faces competition from China. China's electronic products' competitiveness have indicated an increasing trend. Conclusions - The two countries should closely cooperate and communicate with each other. Ultimately, Korea should focus on high-tech, sophisticated techniques to gain market advantage. On the other hand, with the tariff decrease as well as the labor cost and labor force base, China will greatly be able to benefit from the manufacturing of medium- to low-end products in the future.

Today, Companies are facing the harsh realities of a competitive environment. This is no time for revolutionary change. Instead, Companies are instituting revolutionary change meant to have impact within a very short time frame. Bold steps are required to lead the industry into a future of improved efficiency and significant productivity gains. GE, as well as Intel, Motorola, and other companies adopted a program called Six Sigma, in order to make fundamental changes in the way the company operated to fulfill customers'expectations. Six sigma reduces the occurrence of defects from a 3 sigma level of 66,800 defects per million to a 6 sigma level-less than 4defects per million. The goals and metrics of the company's Six Sigma process clearly have had a positive effect on customer satisfaction and customer perception of the company.

Recently, many companies want to accept and operate ERP(Enterprise Resource Planning) system in their fields ERP does not only include business, but also include finance, account, trade, personnel and BPR(Business Process Reengineering). Especially, it is necessary to have ERP system for companies which have lots of external businesses such as trade and communication sector. In modern society, the manufacture field faces on variable chances of Environment. For this situation, the application of Information technique is one of the main point maintain competitive power. The company should chose a proper method for their future and build Unified Information System on its suitable situation. Nowadays, Adjustment and application of technical method for Internet/Intranet and raised and more advanced Extranet gains its force at the moment. The Unification of ERP and POP system under the distributed environment like this will have a huge influence to us. In this subject, I will think about POP system for operating EPR system and improve its defects that can operate more effective sales, circulation, demand plan. Also, I suggest a proper POP system can handle seperated resources in each part of factory for a plan of shot period, order operating, factory inventory, process control.

IT companies make a lot of efforts for sharing and utilizing of experiences of their members and transforming them into the organizational knowledge as a competitive core. But they face a dilemma that they have to spend time and financial resource to perform activities around knowledge management for the long-term gains, while carrying field-works for making short-term profits. As an initial attempt to tackle this managerial problem, this paper try to investigate the mechanism of knowledge management in a small IT company in Korea with a synthetic view-point using system dynamics simulation model. It depicts the dynamic behaviors of knowledge management and presents some findings of political leverage. Although it has to be replenished further, the scheme for the dynamism of knowledge management and the findings presented in the paper could be useful for the decision makers particularly of knowledge-intensive organizations

Purpose - Offshoring has emerged as one of the major trends in international trade and has become one of the strategies for achieving competitiveness in the global market. In spite of this, the expected gains of offshoring can be offset by hidden costs and risks, such as those associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the trade war between the USA and China, and the ongoing trade dispute between Korea and Japan. To obviate such business failure and prevent critical business blunders, offshoring strategies that efficiently consider both risk elements and potential wealth creation are urgently need. The first purpose of this study is to contribute to the development of more advanced offshoring strategies to help host countries select the best locations to manage supply chain risks and create unique value. The second purpose is to specifically analyze the current status of Korea and provide Korean companies with implications to be considered when deciding whether to offshore or re-shore. Design/methodology - A Network DEA model was applied to measure the comparative location efficiency of national competencies for offshoring strategy from perspectives of wealth creation opportunities (profitability and marketability) and supply chain risk management. The location efficiencies are compared among a total 70 countries selected from the Global Competitiveness Index (GCI) and globally attractive locations outlined by Kearney (2017). For the secondary analysis of efficiency, a t-test examining the nature of competitive advantage and the level of sophistication in production processes was implemented in three divisions. We then analyzed differences in offshoring performance in terms of the identified national traits. Moreover, Tobit regression analysis is conducted to investigate the correlation between value-added business activities and each divisional efficiency, seeking to determine how each degree of value-added business activity influences the increase in offshoring productivity. Findings - Regarding overall location efficiency for offshoring performance, only the USA and Italy were identified as being efficient as host countries for offshoring, under circumstances of advanced development, such as productivity and risk management. Korea ranks 13th among 70 countries. The determinants of national competitiveness depend on national traits (the nature of competitive advantage and business sophistication). Countries with labor/resource advantages and labor-intensive industries are more competitive in terms of marketability than others. In contrast, countries with strong technology-intensive industries benefit offshoring companies, particularly in the technology sector, with the added advantage of supply chain risk management. As the perception of a value chain is broader in a country, it can achieve both production sophistication and competitive advantages such as marketability and SCRM. Originality/value - Existing studies focus on offshoring effectiveness from a company perspective. This paper contributes to comparing country efficiency in producing core competencies related to an offshoring strategy and also segments countries into three performance-based considerations associated with the global offshoring market. It also details Korea's position as an offshoring location according to national efficiency and competency.
