본 연구는 재직자의 개인목표에 따른 소명의식의 관계를 분석하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 서울과 수도권에 근무하고 있는 재직자(금융업, 교육서비스업, 정보서비스업 등) 371명을 대상으로 개인목표와 소명의식에 대한 측정도구를 기준으로 설문조사하여 빈도분석, t-test, 일원배치분산분석(One-Way ANOVA), 상관분석 등을 수행하였다. 연구결과 학력에 따라 개인목표의 독자성, 소명의식의 초월적 부름-존재, 목적과 의미, 친사회적 지향에 유의미한 차이가 드러났다. 종교유무에 따라 개인목표의 사회적 책임감, 자원지원, 소명의식의 모든 하위유인에 유의미한 차이가 나타났으며 조직형태에 따라 개인목표의 독자성, 소명의식의 모든 하위요인에서 유의미한 차이가 드러났다. 담당업무에 따라서 소명의식의 초월적 부름-존재, 목적과 의미, 친사회적 지향에 유의미한 차이가 드러났다. 개인목표의 자기주도적 사회관계목표에 해당하는 요인들의 상하 그룹에 따른 소명의식의 유의미한 차이가 없었지만 개인목표의 통합적 사회관계목표의 상하 그룹에 따라 소명의식의 차이를 보였다. 또한 개인목표의 통합적 사회관계목표와 소명의식의 모든 하위요인간의 상관이 높게 드러났다. 결론적으로 재직자의 소명의식을 높이기 위한 통합적 사회관계목표의 중요성이 검증되었으며 조직 내에서도 재직자들이 자신의 일에 대한 소명의식을 갖도록 하는 목표를 인생전반에 설계할 수 있도록 지원해야 한다.
