As the Knowledge Economy grows bigger, studies and practices of knowledge management flourish in almost every organizations. Yet, the studies of fundamental relationships between knowledge and organization have not been sufficiently developed. It is partly because current knowledge management mainly focus on the technical aspects of the theme. This paper tries to find the possible organizing principles and theoretical foundations of knowledge-intensive organizations through the perspective of knowledge market and knowledge community. Based on the differentiation of "knowledge" and "knowing", the author draws several propositions about knowledge creation and knowledge use. Then, the author relates these propositions to the design and implementation of two theoretical models of organizations, i. e. knowledge market and knowledge community. Major claims are: 1) Knowledge use and knowledge creation process are conceptually separable, so that different conceptual models (market & community) need to be applied. 2) Since knowledge use and creation should be integrated, organizations in the Knowledge Economy should be the efficient knowledge market and, at the same time, knowledge community with care and cooperations. 3) The network of independent small KIFs(knowledge-intensive firms) could be considered as the possible organizational model of the future.

Intermediaries are presenting not only transactional information that orchestrates electronic transaction, but also market related information and knowledge useful for sellers' understanding of the market status. However, we do not have strong evidence that the market related information and knowledge is properly utilized by sellers and that it has an actual influence on sellers' performance. According to the research result, absorptive capacity and the pattern of information system utilization is statistically significant to sellers' performance mediated by operational efficiency and market knowledge creation. Especially, explorative utilization of information system and realized absorptive capacity has a stronger influence on sellers' performance mediated by market knowledge creation. With this research result, this study maintains that sellers are required to absorb and utilize market related information and knowledge more actively through explorative utilization of information system to achieve better performance in the e-marketplace. On the other hand, intermediaries are recommended to provide abundant and valuable market related information and knowledge for the sellers to build up better e-marketplaces.

This paper analyzes job creation when the Korean economy transitioned to a knowledge economy from the 1990s to the 2010s. During this period, the ratio of service to manufacturing jobs increased, knowledge intensive industries grew, and job creation became geographically concentrated around Seoul. The changes slowed down in the 2010s, and overall job growth weakened. To analyze the effect of job creation driver industries during this period, the main part of which are knowledge intensive tradable service industries, on local service job creation, I use a modified version of the local labor market of Moretti (2010). I analyze the job changes during 1995-2005 and during 2006-2016 in 237 Si-Gun-Gu areas in the Census on Establishments datasets. I find that one manufacturing job creates 0.5 local service jobs and that one tradable service job creates 1.1 jobs within Gu areas of metro cities and 2.3 jobs in Si-Gun areas. The job creation relationship between the tradable and local service sectors was not altered in this period. As more jobs were created in the tradable sector driven by the transition to a knowledge economy, job creation overall remained active, with the opposite also being true.

만화시장은 크게 출판만화(만화잡지와 단행본) 및 웹툰(webtoon)으로 구분된다. 만화가들이 지속가능한 작품활동을 하기 위해서는 만화시장이 활성화되어야 한다. 만화시장의 활성화를 위한 여러 가지 논의방안이 도출될 수 있으나, 본 연구에서는 출판만화 시장의 한 종류인 단행본시장에서의 만화시장 확대방안을 논의하고자 한다. 단행본 시장에서의 만화시장 확대는 기존의 단행본시장의 활성화와 새로운 단행본시장의 창출이라는 2가지 방안이 있다. 이 중에서 후자인 새로운 만화시장의 창출(확대)을 위해 '장르융합형 지식만화'에 초점을 두고, '장르융합형 지식만화의 만화시장 창출과정'을 살펴본 후, 이를 토대로 새로운 만화시장 창출모델을 개발하고자 한다. 이러한 연구목적을 위해 3개의 장르융합형 지식만화(만화공인중개사, 네모 속의 답을 찾아라, 기적 같은 영문법)를 사례로 선정하였고, 각 사례들의 기획과정과 출판과정 및 (서점)유통과정에 대한 세부사항을 분석하였다. 분석을 위한 연구의 모형으로는 "기획과정 ${\rightarrow}$ 제작과정 ${\rightarrow}$ 유통과정"을 사용하였다. 분석요소를 구체화하기 위한 분석틀로는 "기획과정((1) 제작목표, (2) 크기 분량, (3) 내용구성, (4) 인세 계약조건) ${\rightarrow}$ 제작과정((1) 만화원고 제작, (2) 원고 스캔과 칼라링, (3) 편집 교정, (4) 필름출력 인쇄 제본) ${\rightarrow}$ 유통과정((1) 발행부수 판매부수, (2) 인세수입, (3) 이윤, (4) 파생효과)"을 사용하였다. 분석결과 3가지 사례 모두 파생효과(파생 지식만화의 제작 유통)가 발생함으로써 지속적인 만화창작이 이루어지고 있었다. 이러한 파생효과가 발생한 근본적인 이유는 처음에 기획 제작한 장르융합형 지식만화가 만화시장을 새로이 창출함과 동시에 만화수요자들의 꾸준한 구매에 의하여 수익(작가의 인세수입과 출판사 이윤)을 가져왔기 때문이다. 장르융합형 지식만화의 수익창출(시장매출증가)은 다음과 같은 두 가지 측면에서 파생상품의 창작 제작이 가능한 여건을 조성하였다. 첫째, 만화가들의 경제적 안정이다. 지식만화의 인세수입으로 경제적 생활안정이 된 만화가가 새로운 작품에 대한 창작활동을 더욱 활기차게 진행할 수 있는 여건이 조성된 것이다. 둘째, 출판사의 경제적 이윤창출이다. 지식만화의 판매부수 신장으로 수익(이윤)을 보게 된 출판사가 만화가의 또 다른 작품활동을 통한 파생상품의 출판에 대하여 긍정적으로 허락할 수 있는 여건이 조성된 것이다. 이러한 여건조성은 지식만화의 수익이 파생상품에서도 발생할 것이라는 낙관적 기대감을 형성하기에 가능한 것으로 파악된다. 결과적으로 장르융합형 지식만화의 창작 출판을 통해서 새로운 만화시장의 창출이 가능하다는 사실을 알 수 있었고, 또한 그로부터 '장르융합형 지식만화를 통한 만화시장 창출 모델'을 개발할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 개발한 만화시장 창출 모델을 토대로 여러 분야에서의 지식만화를 다양하게 기획할 수 있는 가능성이 제기 되었으며, 이러한 다양한 기획들이 만화가들의 지속가능한 창작활동에 도움을 줄 것으로 예상된다.

This paper describes the Blue Ocean Strategy and Business TRIZ (Russian Theory of Inventive Problem Solving) Tactics as one method for knowledge creation and innovation. The opening new market avoiding keen competition is very popular recently and is not just prosper, but survival problem. As one new strategy for finding new market, the Blue Ocean Strategy gives the big blueprint for new market, but has no enough tools to make more concrete ideas. In this paper, we suggest using the Strategy Campus and other tools in the Blue Ocean Strategy at initial stage and then, compensating the TRIZ principles to make more concrete ideas for new market as tactics. We applied it to find the new market for conventional newspaper industry and EBS (Education Broadcast System) management innovation in Korea as case studies and got better results comparing to using only the Blue Ocean Strategy.

Maintaining the permanence of a company in the current rapidly changing business environment is not an easy task. Rather, the lifespan of a company can be said to be gradually decreasing. As such, the author of this paper, which describes the current market environment, is the sales organization of a large company. While leading the company, I thought about how to overcome the rapidly changing market and create an organization that continues to grow. As a result, I succeeded in creating an organization that continued to grow over the past two years, and the main activity of this result was the use of sales computer. It was clear that it was an information sharing activity. This can be said to be a result of proving that a series of activities to create and share information is important for the sales organization of ICT companies to actively respond to the rapidly changing market environment. Therefore, this study attempted to examine the relationship between knowledge management and business performance in the sales field of ICT companies, which has not been covered so far. Knowledge management is a four-stage activity from a process perspective, divided into knowledge creation, knowledge storage, knowledge transfer, and knowledge utilization. did. As a result of the study, first, knowledge management activities, such as knowledge creation and knowledge storage, were found to have a significant impact on financial performance. Second, knowledge management activities such as knowledge creation, knowledge storage, knowledge transfer, and knowledge utilization were all found to have an impact on non-financial performance. In the end, this study confirmed that efforts to turn tacit knowledge into knowledge in order to respond to the ever-changing ICT market are ultimately an important factor in growing a company.

Purpose - This paper attempted to verify the process by which a multinational corporation (MNC)'s subsidiary practices entrepreneurship to create effective knowledge (KC) in the local market. We have looked at whether subsidiary entrepreneurship (SENT) has a moderation effect in creating knowledge for the local market when a subsidiary has been given autonomy (AUT) from the headquarters (HQ). We also argue that when a subsidiary creates meaningful knowledge, the effect of the increased status by the HQ within the MNC network position (NP) has an indirect effect on whether knowledge is transferred to other overseas subsidiaries (KTO). Design/methodology - This paper used a structural equation model (SEM) of 282 effective foreign companies invested in Korea. To test the hypothesis about the process of SENT on KTO, descriptive statistics, confirmatory factor analysis, reliability, convergent and discriminant validities, and common method bias were analyzed using STATA. In addition, the moderation effect was verified along with SEM. The moderation effect of AUT on SENT and KC was presented graphically by confirming \mathrm{\pm1} standard deviation of AUT for the main effect. Findings - Our findings are as follows. First, while the hypothesis about the direct effect of SENT and KC on KTO was not supported, all other hypotheses were supported. Second, both the AUT and moderating effect and the indirect effect of NP were significant. In the conclusion, these findings are discussed in relation to its various theoretical and practical implications. Originality/value - This study attempted to contribute to the knowledge creation theory of MNC by contemplating how subsidiaries can move away from HQ and grow in the local market. Although there is still a shortage of foreign investment in the Korean market, our practical implications offer guidance for how current subsidiaries can develop more than other overseas subsidiaries.

This paper investigates the effects of firms' foreign market focus on the optimistic bias of analysts' earnings forecasts. Based on a sample of 852 U.S. manufacturing firms between 1994 and 2015, our empirical results suggest that higher growth of foreign market focus is associated with greater levels of analysts' forecast optimism. Drawing on the CEO career horizon and the upper echelon theory literature, we find evidence that CEOs' career horizon and functional background as a CFO moderates the relationship between the growth rate of foreign market focus and analysts' forecast optimism. This shows that while financial analysts perceive internationalization strategies as signaling growth potential, such perception can vary depending on CEOs' individual characteristics.

Korea Credit Guarantee Fund(KODIT) is a public financial institution under the provision of the Korea Credit Guarantee Fund Act. Facing the waves of change both locally and globally, KODIT will serve as 'social value creator' in making a paradigm shift from a large corporation(Conglomerate-dominated) economy to a social enterprise-oriented one based on social economy. This study focuses on the supporting service programs for social enterprises and job creation how it affects the performance of social value creation of KODIT. There is currently no detailed research of the social value in terms of the business and management academic agenda. Therefore, the present study describes the importance of social value creation on the policy financial institution. This study conducted in-depth case study for social value performance. As a public policy financial institution, KODIT exert diverse efforts to correct market failure and achieve inclusive growth. For example, KODIT extends credit guarantee services for the liabilities of promising corporations and stimulates financial and non-financial supporting programs for social enterprises. Although the role of social value and social economy has gained business field attention, few investigations have been conducted to explain how social value is achieved. The present study can thus act as the foundation for exploring the social value creation in the circumstances of public financial institution.
