Abstract

This study investigated the effect of emotional leadership on the job satisfaction of dental hygienists. Therefore, we tried to determine a way to improve job satisfaction through emotional leadership, which is one of the skills that dental hygienists should have. The study subjects were 237 dental hygienists working in dental clinics in Jeollabuk-do from April 16, 2018 to April 28, 2018. The data was analyzed using the SPSS 12.0 program. The following results were obtained. The emotional leadership of the subjects was lowest for leadership ability (3.15), and the average job satisfaction was 3.43. Salary levels were low, ranging from 2.49 to 2.98. The final academic achievement and dental career had significant influences on emotional leadership (p<0.05). Marital status, self-cognition ability, self-management ability, and relationship management ability influenced the subjects' job satisfaction. The explanatory power of the multiple regression model was 26.5% and the validity of the model was statistically significant (p<0.05). Based on the above results, it was determined that self-recognition ability, self-management ability and relationship management ability of emotional leadership are all highly related to the job satisfaction of dental hygienists. Thus, emotional leadership of dental hygienists can be strengthened to enhance empathy, understanding and management of others' feelings. Therefore, institutional support should be provided for developing an emotional leadership program based on education and training.

본 연구는 치과위생사를 대상으로 감성리더십이 직무만족에 미치는 영향을 파악함으로써, 치과위생사가 갖추어야 할 소양 중의 하나인 감성리더십을 통해 직무만족도를 향상시키는 방안을 도출하고자 연구하였다. 연구기간은 2018년 4월 16일부터 4월 28일까지 전라북도에 소재한 치과병·의원에 근무하고 있는 치과위생사 237명을 대상으로 SPSS 12.0 프로그램을 사용하여 빈도, 기술통계, t-test, ANOVA, 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구대상자의 감성리더십 각 요인 중 관계관리능력은 3.15로 가장 낮았고, 직무만족은 평균 3.43 였고, 동료와의 관계는 4.15로 가장 높아 직장 내 동료와의 관계가 잘 이루어지고 있었고, 업무처리방침과 급여수준은 2.49~2.98로 낮았다. 결혼상태, 자기인식능력, 자기관리능력, 관계관리능력은 직무만족에 영향을 미쳤으며, 다중회귀모형의 설명력은 26.5%이며 모형의 타당성은 통계적으로 유의하였다(p<0.05). 이상의 연구결과를 토대로 치과위생사의 직무만족에 감성리더십의 자기인식능력, 자기관리능력, 관계관리능력이 상호 관련성이 깊은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 치과위생사의 감성리더십을 강화시켜 타인의 감정을 공감하고 잘 이해하고 관리하는 능력을 향상시킬 수 있는 감성리더십 프로그램 개발과 교육 및 훈련이 이루어지도록 제도적 뒷받침이 이루어져야 하겠다.
