Abstract

The study revisits Miles and Snow's strategy typology to investigate the performance relationship with the strategic behavior. Where the most strategy typology researches discern the typology by the respondent's survey such as choosing the best representative behavior for the organization, we developed the strategic typology by the organization's behavior such as marketing strategy, research and development strategy and members' attitudes to the quality. The financial crisis in Korea has reestablished organizational behavior. The study emphasized the changing attitudes of strategy. The results demonstrate that prospector organizations outperform other strategic behavior organizations.

본 연구는 Miles 와 Snow 교수의 전략 분류 기법을 국내 수출 기업들에 적용하여 기업 성과와의 관련성을 측정하였다. 대부분의 전략 분류 연구들이 설문 응답자들의 주관적 판단 또는 대표적 전략적 행위에 대한 선택에 의하여 분류되었지만, 본 연구에서는 마케팅 전략 연구개발 전략, 품질 향상 전략 등 구체적이고 실증적 측정을 기반으로 기업의 전략적 판단 및 행동행위에 대한 분류를 하였고 궁극적으로 성과와의 관련성을 알아보았다. 특히 1990년대 후반 외환위기를 겪은 뒤 2001년 설문 조사를 수행하여 수도권에 있는 상위 수출 중심 기업들의 경영 전략적 행태와 성과간의 관계를 규명하였다. 이는 급격한 환경 변화에 적응하는 기업들의 전략적 행태를 인식하는데 도움을 줄 것이다. 연구 결과는 진취자 (prospector) 전략적 행위를 영위하는 기업 성과가 다른 전략적 행위 기업들보다 높은 성과를 보여 주었다.
