By Kim Yoo-chul


Leadership has required commitment and a willingness to move in directions that others have avoided. In history, great leaders have the ability to convince, encourage and persuade others to follow.
지도력은 헌신과 모두가 피하는 길을 걸어갈 의지를 요한다. 역사 속 위대한 지도자들은 타인을 설득하고 격려해 자신을 따르도록 하는 능력이 있다.


Late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, for example, had stared down the derision of market analysts and key industry peers when deciding to open Apple retail stores. Those stores went global and outpaced conventional retail stores in terms of retail sales rates.
한 예로, 애플 공동 창업자인 고(故) 스티브 잡스는 애플 리테일 스토어 개장을 결정할 당시 시장 분석가 및 업계 핵심 동료들의 조롱을 이겨내야 했다. 하지만 현재 애플의 리테일 스토어는 세계적으로 성장해 소매 판매 측면에서 기존 판매점을 앞질렀다.


Subsequently, Microsoft, Samsung Electronics and Sony all followed Apple's lead with brand-centric tech retail stores.
이후에는 마이크로소프트, 삼성전자, 소니가 모두 애플을 따라 브랜드 중심의 기술 판매점을 개장했다.


The example of does not necessarily reflect all key fundamental factors behind the measurement of business sustainability. However, this case is one example of why leaders and executives should stay agile.
이 사례는 사업의 지속가능성을 측정하는데 필요한 핵심•근본 요소를 모두 보여주지는 않는다. 그러나 이 예시는 지도자와 임원진이 민첩해야 하는 이유를 보여준다.


Therefore, companies can act much faster, more resiliently and increase speed and adaptability to keep up with changes in today's challenging business environment.
따라서 기업은 오늘날 도전적인 사업 환경 변화에 맞춰 더 빠르고 유연하게 행동하며 속도와 적응력을 높여야 한다.


Drastic and rapid changes require firms to develop ideas and to read markets at a very early stage. Tech experts contacted by The Korea Times stressed agile methods can help companies avoid misallocation from the outset.
빠르고 급격한 변화 속에서 기업들은 발 빠르게 아이디어를 개발하고 시장의 흐름을 읽어야 한다. 코리아타임스가 인터뷰한 테크 전문가들은 기업들이 민첩성을 통해 초기에 잘못된 방향으로 가는 것을 막을 수 있다고 강조했다.


But when it comes to Samsung Electronics, the world's top producer of memory chips, some company insiders and experts are voicing concerns about what lies ahead under the weight of a challenging business environment.
그러나 세계 최고 반도체 생산기업 삼성전자에 대해 기업 인사와 전문가 중 일부는 도전적인 사업 환경의 영향 아래에 무엇이 기다리고 있을지 우려하고 있다.


Developing winning strategy
승리 전략 세우기


Because Samsung Electronics' products range from consumer electronics, displays and telecom equipment to chips, the tech giant is ideally positioned to pursue greater synergy between its key businesses.
삼성전자 제품은 가전, 디스플레이, 통신 장비와 반도체까지 다양한 범위에 걸쳐 있다. 따라서 테크 대기업 삼성전자는 핵심사업 간 더 큰 시너지를 창출할 수 있는 이상적인 상황에 놓여 있다.


The vertically-integrated nature of Samsung's business is sometimes considered as a source of concern for its chief competitors. However, this nature makes it possible to deepen in-house partnerships allowing the company's affiliates to share new technologies and to apply them in end-products.
삼성의 수직적인 통합 사업구조는 종종 경쟁사들에게 우려의 원인으로 간주된다. 그러나 이러한 구조는 사내 협력을 강화해 삼성 계열사들이 신기술을 공유하고 이를 완성품에 적용할 수 있게 한다.
