Abstract

In this study, we consider the relationship between boundaryless career attitudes and career success and the mediating effect of networking behavior. Boundaryless career attitude refers to career attitude in which career paths can gain experience in various environments beyond the fence of a single employment situation. Based on a prior research review, research hypotheses were established for the relationship between boundaryless career attitudes and subjective·objective career success. In addition, three networking behaviors, one of the social capital, were set as mediators between the two variables. Verifying the research hypothesis shows that the boundaryless career attitude and subjective career success are in a significant positive relationship and that the relationship is completely mediated by contact maintaining, friendship, and task networking behaviors. The boundaryless career attitude is a significant positibe effect with objective career success, and this relationship has been shown to be completely mediated by friendship and task networking behavior. Based on the above research results, interpretations, implications, and future research directions were presented.

본 연구에서는 무경계 경력태도와 경력성공의 관계 및 네트워킹 행동의 매개효과에 대해 고찰하였다. 무경계 경력태도는 경력경로가 단일 고용상황의 울타리를 벗어나 다양한 환경에서 경험을 쌓을 수 있는 경력태도를 의미한다. 선행연구 검토를 토대로, 무경계 경력태도와 주관적 및 객관적 경력성공의 관계에 대해 가설을 설정하였다. 또한 사회적 자본의 하나인 네트워킹 행동 3가지를 두 변수 간의 매개변수로 설정하였다. 연구가설을 검증한 결과, 무경계 경력태도와 주관적 경력성공은 유의한 정(+)의 관계에 있으며 이 관계를 관계관리, 친교, 업무 네트워킹 행동이 완전매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 무경계 경력태도는 객관적 경력성공과 유의한 정(+)의 관계에 있으며 이 관계를 친교, 업무 네트워킹 행동이 완전매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과를 토대로 해석과 시사점 및 향후 연구방향을 제시하였다.
