성과향상을 위해서는 현장 조직과 구성원에 대해서도 혁신을 도입해야 한다. 하지만, 일반적으로 건설업은 보수적이며, 현장관리자도 보수적인 특성이 있기 때문에 혁신에 대해 저항이 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 건축공사 현장관리자의 혁신행동에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하는 것이 목적이다. 셀프리더십, 피드백추구행동, 직무몰입 중에서 셀프리더십의 행동지향 전략, 직무몰입이 혁신행동과 상관관계가 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 또한 결혼여부, 경력, 직급, 고용형태에 따라서 혁신행동이 차이가 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 본 연구결과는 현장조직의 직무수행관리 체제를 개선시키는데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
