Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between ethical leadership, organizational identification and job stress. Moreover, harmonious passion was considered as a mediating factor between ethical leadership and outcomes. This study tested the mediated model with data from 369 employees working in various organizations. Then, structural equation modeling was used to test proposed hypotheses. The result showed that ethical leadership was positively related to harmonious passion and organizational identification. However, ethical leadership was not related to job stress in this study. And through the mediating role of harmonious passion, ethical leadership had significant effects on organizational identification positively and job stress negatively. Especially, it was revealed that harmonious passion partially mediated the relationship between ethical leadership and organizational identification, and fully did the relationship between ethical leadership and job stress. Implications and limitations of the study were discussed.

본 연구의 목적은 리더의 윤리적 리더십과 부하들의 조직동일시와 직무 스트레스 간의 관계를 규명하는 것이다. 특히, 본 연구는 부하들의 조화로운 열정의 매개역할에 중점을 두고 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해 국내 기업에 종사하는 369명의 종업원들을 대상으로 설문을 실시하고, 구조방정식모형을 사용하여 본 연구의 가설을 검증하였다. 분석결과, 상사의 윤리적 리더십은 부하들의 조화로운 열정과 조직동일시에 정(+)적인 관계가 있었지만, 부하들의 직무 스트레스와는 상관관계가 없었다. 그리고 부하들의 조화로운 열정을 매개로 하여 상사의 윤리적 리더십이 부하들의 조직동일시에 정(+)적인 영향을 미치고 부하들의 직무 스트레스에 부(-)적인 영향을 미쳤다. 구체적으로 본 연구결과에서 조화로운 열정은 윤리적 리더십과 조직동일시 간의 관계에서 부분매개역할을 하고, 윤리적 리더십과 직무 스트레스 간의 관계에서 완전매개역할을 하고 있었다. 그리고 본 연구결과의 시사점과 한계점 및 향후연구 방향을 제시하였다.
