한국형 기업가정신 가치체계 개발: 유교사상과 남명 조식의 경의사상을 중심으로

A Development of Korean Entrepreneurship Value System based on Confucianism and Nammyeong’s Principle

초록

Recently, people-oriented leadership, entrepreneurship, and corporate culture are the most important topics among management practitioners and researchers. The concepts of entrepreneurship imply such as innovation, adventure, risk taking, challenge, pursuing business opportunity, and creative destruction. The concepts were established with the spread of capitalism in the West. When we look at the keywords implied in the concept of entrepreneurship that was established in the early days, it seems somewhat radical and inhumane. However, the entrepreneurship and philosophy of the founders of Samsung, LG, and Hyosung Group in Korea contains Confucian and Neo-Confucian ideas such as human-oriented, rationality, harmony, righteousness, talent cultivation, righteous pursuit of profit, public welfare, business for national welfare, and practice. The management philosophy shared by all the three founders is humanism. It is in line with Nammyeong's humanistic spirit of practice. In this study, we investigate the essence of our own Confucianism and Nammyeong’s principle in more depth, and develop a model of Korean entrepreneurship based on various theories that form the value system of Western entrepreneurship. Finally, we propose a K-entrepreneurship value system from the Confucianism and Nammyeong’s principle as well as traditional entrepreneurship concepts. This study provides useful theoretical and managerial implications.
