Recenzii
"To many observers the ‘Miracle on the Han’ emerged from a judicious mix of direction and collusion of state and big business – the infamous chabeol. Yet such behemoths were not ‘born big’. This new book provides a timely temporal, spatial and comparative examination and analysis of the entrepreneurship – its styles, effectiveness and successes - behind both these businesses and more generally, based on useful survey and longitudinal interview research. This entrepreneurship is grounded in the key contextual conditions of economic, organisation institutional and cultural factors. The book’s important key implications for both business and management theory and practice revolve around the contingent and non-universal nature of entrepreneurship. Furthermore, this entrepreneurial idiosyncrasy is apparent not only when compared to the West, which was somewhat expected, but actually from elsewhere in East Asia, which was perhaps less expected. What this means for researchers is an ever greater role for both indigenous theory and fieldwork."
-Chris Rowley, Professor, Kellogg College, University of Oxford & The Business School, City, University of London
"This book deals with the development of modern Korean entrepreneurship which is closely related to unique management practices and structures of Korean chaebols. It analyzes a wide range of issues of Korean entrepreneurship in-depth including family backgrounds, personal characteristics, visions, sacrifice, and life-long dedication of key Korean entrepreneurs, all of which are essential components in understanding Korean entrepreneurship. This book is highly recommended not only for academic researchers but also for practitioners and today’s entrepreneurs who are interested in global business."
-Mannsoo Shin, Professor, Korea University Business School
"Korea is a technological success story where, if you blink, you may miss important changes. A key watchpoint today is how rapidly Korean businesses, large and small, are creating new entrepreneurial strategies to meet global demands. Hemmert and Kim have provided an excellent assessment of how entrepreneurship in Korea has changed, but also how it will continue to evolve into the future. This is a must-read book for both scholars and business people interested in how and why this enigmatic country continues to succeed."
-Richard M. Steers, Professor Emeritus of International Management, University of Oregon, USA
"Overall, this book stands out from the flood of titles now discussing and promoting entrepreneurship in Asia as a consequence of the manner in which it guides readers towards understanding the history of entrepreneurship in Korea. It informs readers not only of relevant shifts in industrial history, styles of business leadership and other distinctive management trends. It helps readers understand and appreciate the mindsets motivating and distinguishing entrepreneurs in Korea.
Thus, this book succeeds in offering readers a grasp of the impact generated by Korean entrepreneurship on the nation’s economic growth – indeed, of any country’s social, techno-logical and economic development and business growth. It speaks directly to practitioners in Asian business and management in that it explains lucidly Korean entrepreneurship trends through case studies of entrepreneurs in different stages from micro and macro perspectives, providing both conceptual and empirical evidence. It enables the reader to explore the world of entrepreneurship in Korea from various perspectives and understand the intermingling of Korean philosophy, culture, and business environment in a complex ecosystem and amid complex entrepreneurial factors."
