The purpose of this study is to analyse how to develop and organize the Committee, a temporary organization to successfully host sporting events. For this purpose, the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics & Paralympics Organizing Committee (POCOG) and deputy diretors on training who worked at POCOG for about seven months are selected for an in-depth survey. Major studies included human resources, leadership, organizational structure and job analysis, and case analysis using job character theory. This resulted in the following conclusions:
In terms of human resources and leadership, authoritarian and laissez faire leaership were widely observed. Authoritarian leaders made decisions on their own. On the other hand, laissez faire leaders left their full leadership to their members. As a result, there was a strong tendency to show a (-) correlation rather than a (+) correlation between human resources and leadership.
In terms of organizational structure and job analysis, the 'human mix' phenomenon with a mix of human resources was linked to results that could be either positive or negative depending on whether the team leader had the knowledge and attitude associated with the actual tasks being performed. If the team leader had a lot of knowledge and understanding of his duties, he could use them to promote motivation for his team members. On the other hand, if the team leader did not recognize the importance of the task clearly due to his or her ignorance and low interest, the concentration and performance of the team members would also decrease.
This study dealt with a provisional organization in the sports field to host sporting events that had been relatively less interested in existing administrative research. This is meaningful in that it supplemented the fact that much research had not been conducted even though it was an administrative ad hoc organization such as the Olympic Organizing Committee, and provided an opportunity to explore new research direction in relation to these provisional organizations.
