Abstract

The organizational politics strengthened resistance to change. This study explores how the organizational political perception and fairness in split firms affect resistance to change. The analysis showed that the boss's and colleague's politics is minimized by its distributional fairness and procedural fairness. The organizational politics strengthened resistance to change. Additionally, mediating effects of fairness were analyzed. As a result, it was revealed that the perception of organized politics by bosses and that colleagues' perception of organizational politics affected resistance to change based on distributional fairness. However, it was shown that procedural fairness had no mediating roles between organizational politics and change resistance. There is a need to pay keen attention to distributional fairness to minimize the resistance to changes of organizational members at the split. If distributional fairness is not secure, Members will be a political behavior.

본 연구는 분할기업에서 구성원이 인지하는 조직정치지각과 조직공정성에 대한 인식이 변화저항에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 살펴보고 이에 대한 방법을 모색하는데 있다. 분석결과, 상사 정치와 동료 정치에 따른 조직정치 지각은 분배공정성, 절차공정성에 의해 최소화되며 조직정치지각은 변화저항을 강화하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 공정성의 간접 매개효과를 분석하였다. 그 결과 상사의 조직정치지각, 동료의 조직정치지각은 분배 공정성을 매개로 한 변화 저항에 영향을 가진다고 나타났다. 하지만 절차 공정성은 조직정치지각과 변화 저항 간에 매개 효과가 없다고 나타났다. 이에 따라 분할 기업에서 조직구성원들의 변화 저항을 최소화할 수 있도록 분배적 공정성에 많은 관심을 가질 필요가 있다. 조직구성원들이 분배 공정성이 확보되지 못할 경우 조직정치 행동이 유발될 가능성이 높다고 할 수 있다.
