Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the mediating effect of organizational commitment in the relationship between transformational and transactional leadership and innovative behavior and demonstrate the moderated mediating effect of job satisfaction. To this end, 4,133 cases from the 『2021 Public Servant Life Survey』 conducted to general public servants belonging to central administrative agencies and metropolitan governments by the Korea Institute of Public Administration were used for the analysis, and SPSS 21.0 and Mplus 8.4 programs were used to test the research hypotheses. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that transformational and transactional leadership had a positive effect on organizational commitment and innovative behavior, and organizational commitment had a positive effect on innovative behavior. In addition, it was confirmed to have a significant mediating effect in the relationship between transformational and transactional leadership and innovative behavior. Finally, it was confirmed that the mediating effect of transformational and transactional leadership on innovative behavior through organizational commitment was moderated by the level of job satisfaction, and all the proposed hypotheses were adopted. Based on theses findings, theoretical and practical suggestions and future research suggestions were discussed.

본 연구는 변혁적 및 거래적 리더십이 조직몰입을 거쳐 혁신행동에 미치는 매개효과와 공직만족에 의해 조절된 매개효과를 확인하는 것이 목적이다. 이를 위해 한국행정연구원이 중앙행정기관 및 광역자치단체 소속 일반직 공무원을 대상으로 실시한 2021년 공직생활 실태조사 데이터 4,133부를 최종분석에 사용하였고, 변인간의 관계를 분석하기 위하여 SPSS 21.0과 Mplus 8.4 프로그램을 활용하였다. 검증 결과로 변혁적 및 거래적 리더십이 조직몰입과 혁신행동에 정의 영향을 미치고, 조직몰입은 혁신행동에 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인했다. 또한, 변혁적 및 거래적 리더십과 혁신행동의 관계에서 유의한 매개효과를 가지는 것으로 확인되었다. 변혁적 및 거래적 리더십이 조직몰입을 통해 혁신행동에 미치는 매개효과는 공직만족의 수준에 의해 조절되는 것으로 확인되어 제시한 가설은 모두 채택되었다. 이상의 분석결과를 토대로 이론적, 실무적 제언과 향후과제를 제시했다.
