Abstract

This study aimed for testing the effects of the empowerment in the circumstances of remote management that managers and employees were in separate countries. For this purpose, researchers collected survey data from 79 local teachers in multinational enterprises on English education and performed Structural Equation Modeling. The hypotheses below are revealed as significant. Firstly, empowerment had a positive effect on job satisfaction, but had a negative effect on job stress. Secondly, empowerment had a positive effect on organizational commitment. Thirdly, job satisfaction had a positive effect on organizational commitment. Fourthly, job stress had a negative effect on organizational commitment and job satisfaction mediated the relationship between empowerment and organizational commitment. Finally, job stress mediated the relationship between empowerment and organizational commitment. And the results of this study suggest that the employees' job satisfaction and organizational commitment can be enhanced using empowerment in the remote management system.

본 연구는 종사원과 관리자가 서로 다른 국가에 있는 원격관리 상황에서 임파워먼트의 영향력을 검증하였다. 이를 위해 다국적 영어교육 기업의 현지교사 79명을 대상으로 설문조사를 하였고, 구조방정식 모형을 통해서 실증연구를 검증하였다. 그 결과 원격관리 상황에서도 임파워먼트는 직무만족과 조직몰입에 정(+)의 영향을 미치고 직무만족은 조직몰입에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 임파워먼트는 직무스트레스에 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 직무만족은 임파워먼트가 조직몰입에 영향을 미칠 때 부분매개 하는 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과에 따라서 원격관리를 해야 하는 조직형태에서도 임파워먼트를 활용범위를 넓혀서 종사원들의 직무만족과 조직몰입을 높일 수 있는 계기를 마련하게 되었다.
