초록

본 연구는 종업원의 직무만족에 대한 윤리적 리더십의 영향과 이 두 변수 간의 관계에 대한 종업원 참여(직무참여, 조직참여)의 매개역할에 대해 분석하였다. 분석자료는 한국 기업에서 일하는 218명의 종업원으로부터 수집되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 윤리적 리더십은 직무참여와 조직참여 둘 다에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 윤리적 리더십은 또한 직무만족에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 직무참여와 조직참여는 윤리적인 리더십과 직무만족 간의 관계를 부분적으로 매개하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 본 연구는 윤리적 리더십과 직무만족 간의 관계에 관한 기존의 연구를 확장하였다는 점에서 이론적 기여를 한다. 본 연구는 윤리적 리더십과 조직만족 간의 관계에 있어서 윤리적 리더십이 직무만족에 직접적인 영향을 미치지만, 종업원 참여의 하위 차원인 직무참여와 조직참여 각각을 통해 간접적으로 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 메커니즘을 밝혀냈다는 점에서 이론적 시사점이 있다. 또한, 본 연구결과는 CEO들이 조직의 관리자들이 윤리적 리더십을 발휘할 수 있도록 힘써야 한다는 실무적 시사점을 제시한다. 한편으로, 본 연구결과는 경영자 및 인적자원개발 전문가들은 조직 내 종업원들의 참여 수준을 높이는 방안을 모색할 필요가 있다는 실무적 시사점을 제시한다. 마지막으로, 본 연구는 향후 연구에서 수정 및 보완되어야 할 한계점과 향후 연구방향을 제시하였다.

Abstract

This study examined the influence of ethical leadership on employee job satisfaction and the mediating role of employee engagement in the relationship between these two variables. In this study, employee engagement was divided into job engagement and organization engagement. Data were collected from 183 employees working for Korean companies. The results of this study are as follows. First, it was found that ethical leadership was positively related to both job engagement and organization engagement. Second, ethical leadership was also positively related to job satisfaction of employees. Third, job engagement and organization engagement were found to partially mediate the relationship between ethical leadership and job satisfaction respectively. The results of this study suggest a theoretical contribution in that it expanded existing studies on the relationship between ethical leadership and job satisfaction. This study is significant in that it revealed a mechanism that ethical leadership directly affects job satisfaction in the relationship between ethical leadership and job satisfaction, but indirectly positively affects employee engagement variables such as job engagement and organization engagement. The results of this study also suggest practical implications that CEOs should strive to help organizational managers demonstrate ethical leadership. In addition, the results of this study suggest practical implications that managers and human resource development experts need to seek ways to increase the level of engagement of employees in the organization. Finally, this study presented limitations to be revised and supplemented in future studies and future research directions.
