Abstract

To improve the performance of the building construction project, it is important for the site managers to manage effectively so that they can do their best to the site organization. In addition, making decisions are constantly done in site organizations of building construction project, so whether decisions are made appropriately in the organization has a great impact on performance. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between decision making participation and organizational commitment of site managers to improve the performance of site organizations. The results of this study showed that the site managers tend to be more task oriented than people oriented when making decisions. Also, there was a difference in affective commitment according to decision making type, and there was a weak correlation between decision making participation and organization commitment. This study will help to improve the managerial ability of site organization in building construction projects.

건축프로젝트의 성과향상을 위해 현장관리자들이 조직에 최선을 다할 수 있도록 효과적으로 관리하는 것이 중요하다. 또한, 현장조직은 끊임없이 의사결정을 하므로 조직에서 의사결정이 적절하게 이루어지는지가 성과에 많은 영향을 미친다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 현장조직의 성과향상을 위해 현장관리자의 의사결정 참여와 조직몰입의 관계를 파악하는 것이 목적이다. 연구 결과 현장관리자들은 의사결정을 할 때 사람 중심보다는 업무 중심으로 하는 성향이 높은 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 의사결정 유형에 따라 정서적 몰입에 차이가 있으며, 의사결정 참여도와 조직몰입 간에 약한 상관관계가 있는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구는 현장조직의 직무수행관리 능력을 높이는 데 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.
