3대 가족기업 경영에서의 스튜어드쉽: 말표산업주식회사 사례연구를 중심으로

Using Davis, Donaldson and Schoorman’s (1997) conceptual stewardship theory arguments, in this exploratory research we cautiously progress from theory development to theory testing and examine the application of stewardship theory concepts in a third generation South Korean family business. We explore how this family business has been able to successfully transition leadership on multiple occasions and examine ways in which agency costs are ameliorated by stewardship theory rooted initiatives.
We respond to researchers who have contributed to the development of stewardship theory and who are united in their call for studies that validate the conceptual principles developed over the past two decades.
