Abstract

Our study builds up a theoretical model to explain how individual compassion in organizations affects the macro concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR). A theoretical framework conceptualizes whereby individual compassions in work organizations responding to others' suffering generate positive or negative organizational identity, which impact their CSR activities. That is, we proposes that authentic compassion will develop positive organizational identity and then leads to proactive CSR, while pseudo compassion will trigger negative organizational identity and in turn results in reactive CSR. This study aims to explain the antecedents of firms' CSR in terms of individual compassion in organizations, interacted with the dynamics of organizational identity.

본 연구는 조직 내 개인들의 컴페션 행동들이 조직 수준의 기업의 사회적 책임(CSR)에 어떻게 영향을 미치는가에 대한 이론적 모델을 세웠다. 이론적 모델은 다른 직원의 고통에 반응하여 제공하는 직원들의 컴페션 행위가 조직의 긍정적 또는 부정적 조직 정체성을 일으키고, 더 나아가서 기업의 CSR 활동에 영향을 미칠 것으로 개념화했다. 즉, 조직 구성원들의 가슴에서 일어나는 진실한 컴페션은 긍정적 조직 정체성을 일으켜 자발적인 CSR을 하게 되고, 외부의 압력 등에 의해서 어쩔 수 없이 하게 되는 가짜 컴페션은 부정적 조직 정체성을 일으켜 소극적인 CSR을 하게 된다. 본 연구는 CSR의 선행변수로써 조직 내 개인들의 컴페션 행위와 이를 통해 발전한 조직의 정체성으로 보았다.
