Although previous studies have made significant progress in adaptive selling behavior (ASB), few studies have considered salesperson's customer orientation (CO) and learning behavior as determinants of effective sales management (ASB and relationship-making efforts), despite the discussion of important roles of these constructs. The authors test not only the relationships of salesperson's CO and market-based learning behavior to ASB and relationship-making efforts, but also the effects of ASB on relationship-making efforts and performance. The results of the study, which is done with samples of salespeople from Korean companies, indicate that salesperson's CO and market-based learning behavior are identified as significant determinants of ASB. Moreover, both salesperson's ASB and relationship-making efforts have significant effects on sales performance. On the other hand, as per salesperson's relationship-making efforts, salesperson's CO has a positive effect, but salesperson's market-based learning behavior and ASB do not influence his or her relationship-making efforts, which suggest a provocative possibility of conceptualization regarding the relationship between ASB and relationship management efforts.

The paper examines the impact of information about cash flow from operating activities of firms listed on Vietnam's stock market to the decision making of individual investors. Data were collected from interviews with 160 individual investors about their investment decisions based on information on profit growth and cash flow growth from operating activities. T-test was conducted to research on Vietnam's stock market - a market considered as information that is not really public, transparent and ineffective. The research results show that: (1) investors do not care about cash flow from operating activities when making investment decisions if the company's profits grow positively, (2) information about cash flow from operating activities only affects the decisions of individual investors once profit growth is negative, and (3) conflicting information between profit growth and cash flow growth from business activities significantly affects the confidence and comfort of investors in Vietnam's stock market when they make investment decisions. Then, the study points out the mistake of investors when making investment decisions, and offers recommendations to investors when making investment decisions, not only concerned with profit growth, but also paying special attention to cash flow growth, especially cash flow from the company's business operations.

This paper is aim to test how market orientation is related to the investment decision making. After controlling for firm-specific factors, this study finds a significantly positive relationship between market orientation and R&D expenditures, especially firms with high ratio of intangible assets and low ratio of abnormal inventory assets. Under conditions of low quality of earnings, the negative relation between market orientation and R&D expenditures is enhanced in electronic related industries. This indicates that the relation between market orientation and R&D expenditures may exhibit more reasonable patterns for investment decision of firms in technology driven business environment.

본 연구는 부정기 건화물선 시장에서 용선의사결정시 분석적 방법과 의사결정자의 경험에 의한 직관이나 성향과 같은 직관적 방법이 의사결정에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 하였다. 해운기업들이 왜 운임 예측, 용선계약시 고려하는 업무요소와 대안선택의 중요도와 같은 분석적인 방법에 따라서 합리적인 의사결정과 행동을 하지 않고, 동일한 시장 상황에서 의사결정의 차이로 동일한 행동을 하지 않는지 확인하기 위하여 용선 의사결정모형 연구를 시작하였다. 해운기업들은 용선 의사결정을 위해서 시장 전망, 현물 및 선물지수와 같은 외부 환경적인 시장요인을 활용하며, 내부적으로 운임(용선료) 분석, 화물 및 계약의 특성에 따라서 위험성이 적은 대안 선택을 위한 분석을 한다. 하지만 분석적 방법으로 확인이 어려운 다양한 의사결정 부분들이 존재하고 제한된 시간 안에 빠른 결정이 필요한 상황에서 의사결정자의 경험적 직관이나 심리적인 요인에 따른 의사결정이 최적의 대안 선택이 될 수도 있다. AHP분석으로 용선의사결정시 의존하는 방법 요인들의 중요도를 검증하였다. 용선의사결정 상위요인의 의존도는 시장요인, 경험적 직관, 내부요인, 군집행동성, 손실회피성 순으로 나타났다. 세부요인으로는 현물 운임지수, 경험적 직관이 의사결정시 의존하는 가장 중요한 요인으로 확인되었다. 분석적 방법인 내부적 분석보다 경험적 직관이 보다 중요도가 높다는 것을 확인하였다. 의사결정의 부문에 따른 대안 결정 분석 결과, 운임(용선료) 의사결정시에는 시장요인, 내부요인, 손실회피성, 군집행동성에 의존도가 높으며, 선박과 선사 결정에서는 경험적 직관성에 의존도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 대안으로 선택할 수 있는 선박들의 운임에 차이가 작을 경우에는 의사결정자의 경험에 의해서 선박과 선사를 결정하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 용선계약의 형태에 따른 대안 결정 분석 결과, 장기계약 결정시에는 상대적으로 시장요인, 내부요인, 손실회피성에 의한 의존도가 높게 나타났으며, Spot계약 결정시에는 경험적 직관성과 군집행동성에 더 의존하고 있다고 나타났다. 장기계약은 Spot계약보다 시황에 따른 손실위험이 높고 손실 금액이 매우 크기 때문에 보다 더 분석적인 방법이 필요하며 손실회피 성향이 더 높게 작용한다고 판단된다. 또한 Spot계약시에는 보다 탄력적이고 빠른 의사결정이 필요하며 담당 관리자의 의사결정에 대한 권한이 많고, 장기계약보다 시황에 따른 손실 위험성의 민감도가 낮고, 분석적 방법보다는 경험과 시장의 분위기에 따라가는 의사결정을 하고 있다는 것을 알 수 있다. 본 연구는 온전히 합리적일 수 없는 인간의 제한된 합리성과 때로는 경험에 의존하거나 심리적인 성향을 부정기 건화물선 해운시장에서 용선 의사결정모형에 적용하여 학문적으로 연구하고 증명한 것에 의의가 있다고 할 수 있다. 또한 불확실하고 의사결정에 따른 손실 위험이 높은 부정기선 시장에서 의사결정자의 경험과 통찰력이 해운기업의 용선계약 부분의 업무 성과와 수익에 매우 중요한 영향이 있다는 것을 시사한다.

Korea dairy industry has a long and chronic problems to consume raw milk , those are surplus milk and decline the market milk consumption continued about 10 years. This study was aim to propose and to find the solution for dairy industry problems. After WTO system, with the importation of dairy products, domestic milk production has fell into the situation of excess supply and huge inventory of dried milk, the milk powder stocks have increased since 2002. That made a chronic decline milk consumption in Korea. The core of chronic problem of Korea dairy industry is the decreasing in market milk consumption. If they have a settlement of any other way using their raw milk to process and consumption to market milk, there will be a solution to solve the chronic problems in this situation. Especially, that will be a development of small farm scale natural cheese production and consume. This may be lead a situation of increase the raw milk consumption, because natural cheese making needs much of raw milk more than market milk. But there are very low technical level of farmers cheese making status, so they need a cheese making educational program for their commercial level of cheese products. Under these situation, there are needed a way out of educational system for the dairy farmers to obtain the high level of cheese making technology from the trustable and scientific organization. The natural cheese making technique of dairy farmers should be accumulated to get the consumers' solid recognition of high quality of natural cheese as LOHAS(Lifestyle Of Health And Sustainability) foods.
