Abstract

It is believed that there will be changes in the behavior of members according to the characteristics of the organization's leader. The purpose of this study is to find out the factors that induce changes in the behavior of employees of the organization through empirical research. In order to accomplish the research aims, we developed and verify the research model using authentic leadership as an independent variable and the innovative behavior as a criterion variable. In addition, by using the silent phenomenon of the members as a mediating variable, we also tried to find out how it affects the behavior of the employees. Empirical results of the study showed that authentic leadership as an independent variable had a direct influence on the innovation behavior of employees, and the mediating effect of silence also had a partial mediating effect. These findings suggest that leadership and Silence factors which are internal motivational factors leading to behavior of employees are affected innovative behavior. There are some expectations as follow. Based on this study, it would be an important issue that the study on the necessity of silence management of employees through research on the causes of silence felt by members of the organization and the influence.

조직의 리더의 특성에 따라 구성원들의 행동의 변화가 있을 것으로 생각되며 이러한 아이디어를 바탕으로 실증연구를 통해 조직 구성원들의 행동의 변화를 유발 시키는 요인을 알아보고자 한다. 본 연구를 진행하기 위해 진성리더십을 독립변수로 활용하고 결과변수로는 구성원들이 생각하는 창의적인 아이디어를 직접 실행하고 행동으로 옮기는 혁신행동을 변수로 활용하여 검증하고자 한다. 또한 구성원의 침묵현상을 매개변수로 활용하여 구성원들의 행동에 어떠한 영향을 주는가를 함께 알아보고자 하였다. 결과적으로 독립변수인 진성리더십은 구성원들의 혁신행동에 직접적인 영향관계가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 침묵의 매개효과 역시 부분 매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 구성원들의 행동을 유발하는 내적 동기의 요인 중 리더십과 침묵 동기요인들이 작용된 것으로 보여 지는 결과이다. 이후 본 연구를 바탕으로 조직의 구성원들이 느끼는 침묵의 원인에 대한 연구와 침묵이 미치는 영향요인에 관한 연구를 통해서 구성원들의 침묵관리의 필요성에 관한 연구가 중요할 것으로 보여 진다.
