Abstract

This study aimed to identify the influence of a nutrition teacher's servant leadership on cooks' empowerment and organizational commitment in school organization. For this purpose, this study selected 288 cooks working in elementary, middle and high schools located in Daegu city, and conducted a survey toward them. The collected data were analyzed with the frequency analysis, the reliability verification, the correlation test, and the multi-regression analysis. As the results testing the hypotheses, the following 3 hypotheses were chosen as valid ones. First hypothesis: A nutrition teacher's servant leadership will positively(+) influence on cooks' empowerment. Second hypothesis: A nutrition teacher's servant leadership will positively(+) influence on cooks' organizational commitment. Third hypothesis: A cook's servant empowerment will positively(+) influence on his/her organizational commitment. Therefore, nutrition teachers should exercise their servant leadership so that cooks can be responsible for the quality of school meals and perform their work on the basis of autonomy and creativity. In order to perform the role of a servant leader, nutrition teachers will need to continually get various educational, training programs for enhancing their servant leadership.

본 연구는 학교조직에서 영양교사의 서번트 리더십이 조리원의 임파워먼트 및 조직몰입에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위하여 대구광역시 초 중 고등학교에 근무하는 조리원 288명을 연구대상으로 조사대상으로 선정하여 설문조사를 수행하였고 수집된 자료는 SPSS 프로그램을 이용하여 빈도분석, 신뢰도 검증, 상관관계 및 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 가설을 검증한 결과, 영양교사의 서번트 리더십은 조리원의 임파워먼트에 정(+)의 영향을 미칠 것이다 라는 가설1과 영양교사의 서번트 리더십은 조리원의 조직몰입에 정(+)의 영향을 미칠 것이다 라는 가설2는 부분 채택되었고, 조리원의 임파워먼트는 조직몰입에 정(+)의 영향을 미칠 것이다 라는 가설3은 채택되었다. 따라서 학교급식의 질을 좌우하는 조리원이 자신의 업무를 자율성과 창의성에 바탕을 두고 수행할 수 있도록 영양교사가 서번트 리더십을 발휘해야 할 것이다. 서번트 리더로서 자신의 역할을 수행하기 위해 영양교사는 서번트 리더십 함양을 위한 다양한 교육과 연수를 지속적으로 받을 필요성이 있을 것이다.
