Large Korean electronics companies are confronted by the enormous challenges of technological leadership. Past reliance on technology acquired overseas is no longer a viable strategy for those Korean electronics firms which have caught up with the rest of the world in the development of key technologies. No company has faced these challenges more keenly than the $62 billion Samsung Group. From a highly centralised and bureaucratic organisation with almost entirely Korean-based production, Samsung is in the process of transforming itself into the flexible, trans-national organisation necessary to compete in the next century. From a company dependent upon overseas technology and licenses, Samsung has developed advanced R&D capabilities and is developing the innovation management skills needed to compete as a technological leader. This transformation has to occur on a substantial scale and is difficult and incomplete. Samsung has traditionally been a conservative and bureaucratic company: characteristics unhelpful to innovation. This paper analyses the major factors driving the need to improve technology and innovation management in Samsung and the ways in which it is learning to innovate. It describes how this new learning about the need for innovation is beginning to manifest itself in new innovation management practices.

This study was conducted to determine the predictive effect of the features (scale scores) related to the factors that affect social exclusion, friendship quality, social competence and emotional management skills in adolescents on adolescent problem behaviors such as smoking, alcohol use, unhappiness, hopelessness and self-harm behaviors. This research was carried out on 422 students studying at 9th, 10th and 11th grades in 11 high schools randomly selected among the state Anatolian high schools of Kadıköy with the permission of Istanbul Governorship MNE No: 59090411-20-E.4519169 dated 21.04.2016. Data were collected through Social Exclusion, Friendship Quality, Social Competence and Emotional Management Scales and personal information form prepared by the researcher. The data were analyzed with SPSS 23 statistical software, two-way ANOVA (univariate) and logistic regression techniques. The findings showed that on the features related to social exclusion, social competence, friendship quality and emotional management skills, the following were effective: having smoker friends, having friends with negative behaviors towards others, dissatisfaction with physical appearance, perception of self-efficacy, getting along with friends, being sensitive towards daily events, having smoker family members and alcohol use the family, experiencing less economic problems in the family and participating in activities such as cinema with the family. The quality of friendship intimacy had an increasing effect on smoking and alcohol use, while the security dimension had a reducing effect on alcohol use, feeling unhappy, feeling hopeless and self-harm (bodily damage). The social exclusion, emotional management and coping with the problem dimensions had a diminishing effect on alcohol use, while negative emotions and the ability to control negative bodily reactions had a diminishing effect on self-harm behaviors. The findings suggest that, especially emotional management skills, friendship quality and social exclusion are dynamics that can determine the psycho-social risk susceptibility of adolescents. The results of the research reveal the importance of getting adolescents to gain the skills to manage friendship selection and friendship relations through studies aimed at supporting the emotional development of adolescents.
