초록

본 연구는 개인 경력개발이 중요해지는 현대사회에서 경력개발의 기초가 되는 업무그릿과 경력정체성 확립에 과업난이도와 동료지원인식이 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 하였다. 연구목적 달성을 위해 국내 근로자 544명을 대상으로 설문조사를 수행하였다. 응답자료는 구조방정식을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 과업난이도는 업무그릿에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 동료지원인식은 업무그릿에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 과업난이도는 경력정체성에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 동료지원인식은 경력정체성에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 다섯째, 업무그릿은 경력정체성에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 여섯째, 업무그릿은 과업난이도와 동료지원인식, 그리고 경력정체성 사이의 관계에서 매개역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과는 업무특성과 동료지원인식이 경력정체성에 주는 영향에서 업무그릿이 중요한 매개역할을 한다는 것을 나타낸다. 개인의 비인지적 특성인 업무그릿에 대한 깊이있는 탐구가 지속적으로 필요하며, 이와 관련한 학문적인 시사점과 실무적인 시사점을 제시하였다.

Individual career development is getting more important in modern society. In this study, we investigated the effects of task difficulty and perceived colleague support to work grit and career identity, which are the most fundamental aspects of career development. To achieve the research goal, a total of 544 complete responses from the employees in South Korea were used for data analysis. The data was analyzed using structural equation modeling. The research results are as follows. First, task difficulty positively affect work grit. Second, perceived colleague support was found to have a statistically significant effect on work grit. Third, the path from task difficulty to career identity was not statistically significant. Fourth, perceived colleague support was shown to have a statistically significant effect on career identity. Fifth, work grit was found to have a statistically significant effect on career identity. Sixth, work grit was found to mediate the relationship between task difficulty, perceived colleague support, and career identity. These findings suggest that work grit plays a crucial mediating role in the impact of task difficulty and perceived colleague support on career identity. This underscores the need for continued in-depth exploration of work grit. Based on these research results, discussions and suggestions are presented.
