Abstract

This study investigated the role of organizational communication, culture and trust as a moderator of the organizational performance(the growth of production and quality improvement) and job satisfaction. Using data collected from 248 workers at 128 establishments in Changwon industrial complex, morderated regression analyses explored the proposed model. As a result, communication activity and organizational trust was found negatively to moderate the relationship between job satisfaction and quality improvement/the growth of production. And organizational culture was found positively to moderate the relationship between satisfaction and quality improvement. Implications of these findings were discussed.

본 논문은 생산성 향상과 품질 개선이라는 조직 성과를 높이는 데 직무 만족과 상호작용하는 조직 커뮤니케이션과 조직 문화, 그리고 경영진에 대한 신뢰의 역할과 기능에 대해서 추적하였다. 창원지역 기계금속 업종 근로자로부터 표집된 설문 자료를 토대로 하여 연구 가설을 검증한 결과 세 가지 조직 환경 변인과 직무 만족이 조직 성과에 미치는 직접적 효과는 미미하였으나 의미 있는 상호작용 효과를 확인하였다. 검증된 상호작용 효과를 살펴보면 대체적으로 생산성 향상보다는 품질 개선이라는 성과 변인에서 상호작용효과가 나타나는 경향이 있었다. 그리고 예상 가설과 달리 커뮤니케이션이 비활성화되고 낮은 경영진 신뢰의 조건에서 직무만족과 품질 개선 효과는 높은 상관 관계를 보여주었다(커뮤니케이션과 신뢰의 부적 조절 효과). 마지막으로 수평적 조직문화의 조건에서, 그리고 갈등적 노사관계의 조건에서 직무 만족과 조직 성과의 상관성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 연구 결과의 이론적 의미와 함의에 대해 추가적인 논의를 포함하였다.
