Abstract

Recently, empowering leadership, which leads to psychological motivation by giving members authority, responsibility, and autonomy for decision-making and instilling a sense of ownership in their work, as well as the suitability between individual members and their jobs, has been emphasized as determining the success of an organization in a rapidly changing environment. In addition, jobcrafting is attracting attention as an action that proactively readjusts the physical, cognitive, and relational scope of work by changing beliefs and attitudes toward a given task. Therefore, this study examines the structural relationship between empowering leadership, person-job fit, jobcrafting, knowledge-sharing behavior, and innovation behavior. A survey was conducted on members of travel agencies in Busan and Gyeongnam, and the results showed that first, empowering leadership had a positive (+) significant effect on jobcrafting, and person-job fit had a positive (+) significant effect on jobcrafting. Second, it was found that jobcrafting had a positive (+) significant effect on knowledge-sharing behavior and innovation behavior, and finally, knowledge-sharing behavior had a positive (+) significant effect on innovation behavior, so all hypotheses were adopted. This study shows that in order to induce knowledge-sharing behavior and innovation behavior of members, it is necessary to create an environment in which jobcrafting can take place, increasing the level of empowering leadership, person-job fit, and increasing jobcrafting.

최근 급변하는 환경에서 조직의 성공을 좌우하는 것으로 구성원에게 의사결정에 대한 권한 및 책임, 자율성을 부여하고 맡은 일에 대한 주인의식을 심어주어 심리적 동기부여를 이끄는 임파워링 리더십과 구성원 개인과 직무 간 적합성이 강조되고 있다. 또한 주어진 업무에 대한 신념, 태도를 변화시켜 일의 물리적, 인지적, 관계적 범위를 주도적으로 재조정하는 행동으로 관심을 받고 있는 것이 바로 잡크래프팅이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 임파워링 리더십, 개인-직무 적합성, 잡크래프팅, 지식공유행동, 혁신행동 간의 구조적 관계를 살펴보고자 한다. 부산·경남 여행사에 근무하는 구성원을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고 그 결과는 첫째, 임파워링 리더십이 잡크래프팅에 정(+)의 유의한 영향, 개인-직무 적합성이 잡크래프팅에 정(+)의 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 잡크래프팅이 지식공유행동과 혁신행동에 정(+)의 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 마지막으로 지식공유행동이 혁신행동에 정(+)의 유의한 영향을 미쳐 모든 가설은 채택되었다. 본 연구는 구성원들의 지식공유행동과 혁신행동을 유발하기 위해서 조직 내 리더의 임파워링 리더십 발휘와 개인-직무 적합성 수준을 높이고 잡크래프팅이 이루어질 수 있는 환경이 조성될 필요가 있다는 것을 알 수 있다.
