Abstract

Organizational citizenship behaviors(OCB) are discretionary behaviors of employees, which go beyond that which is required, and are known to be contributing factors of organizational performance. When a supply chain management(SCM) system is implemented, organizational knowledge concerning the global standards, process innovation and key performance indicators(KPI) is also spread out across different, disconnected silos, thus increasing the absorptive and innovative capacity of employees. Therefore, OCB may be an important antecedent to successful operation of supply chain. This paper examines the causal relationships among absorptive capacity of employees, organizational citizenship, SCM performance and intention to innovate in global manufacturing corporations in Korea. Empirical results from 122 survey responses indicate that the organizational citizenship affects the level of SCM performance and absorptive capacity, which, in turn, influences SCM performance. As expected, SCM performance has been found to affect intention to innovate, but absorptive capacity has no impact on intention to innovate. As a conclusion, the academic and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

조직시민행동이란 조직내의 공식적 역할이나 기능을 넘어서는 구성원들의 재량적 행동을 의미하며, 조직의 성과 제고에 상당한 기여를 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 공급망관리(SCM) 시스템이 도입되면, 글로벌 표준, 프로세스 혁신, 핵심성과지표 등에 관한 정보가 여러 부서에 폭넓게 전달되어 구성원들의 흡수 및 혁신능력을 제고할 수 있다. 구성원들의 조직시민행동은 이런 과정을 활성화시켜 SCM 성과를 증진시키며 결과적으로 조직 혁신에 기여할 수 있다. 본 논문은 국내에서 비즈니스를 전개하고 있는 글로벌 제조 기업에 근무하고 있는 조직구성원의 흡수능력과 조직시민행동의식, SCM의 성과 및 혁신의도 간 인과관계 분석에 초점을 둔다. 122명으로부터 수집한 설문자료를 통계적으로 분석한 결과, 조직시민행동은 SCM 성과와 흡수능력에 긍정적 영향을 미치며, 흡수능력 또한 SCM 성과에 직접적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 기대한 바와 같이 SCM 성과는 혁신의도의 유의한 선행요인으로 분석되었지만, 조직구성원의 흡수능력은 별다른 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 그 외 본 연구결과의 학술적, 실무적 시사점도 함께 제시하였다.
