Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the characteristics of Agile Culture, which is attracting attention as an organizational culture suitable for responding to changes in the recent corporate management environment, and to reveal the roles and relationships of leadership, Perceived Organizational Support(POS), and Agile Culture. The research was conducted on the employees of the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation and its subsidiaries, and SmartPLS 3.3.2 was mainly used for the research model test. As a result of the study, both Servant Leadership and Authentic Leadership had a positive effect on POS, and POS had a significant effect on all sub-dimensions of Agile Culture(Empowerment, Collective Intelligence and Continuous Learning). In addition, POS mediated the effects of the above two leaderships on Collective Intelligence and Empowerment, but there was no mediating effect in the relationship with Continuous Learning. These results suggest that leadership and Employees' perceptions of organizational support are important to build an Agile Culture.

최근 기업 경영환경의 변화에 대응하기 적합한 조직문화로 주목받고 있는 애자일 문화의 특성을 검토하고 리더십, 애자일 문화, 조직지원인식(POS)의 역할과 상호 관계를 밝히고자 하였다. 연구는 농협중앙회 및 산하의 자회사 직원들을 대상으로 진행하였고, 연구모형 검정에는 주로 SmartPLS 3.3.2를 사용하였다. 연구결과, 서번트리더십과 진성리더십은 모두 POS에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤고, POS는 애자일 문화의 모든 하위차원(권한위임, 지속적인 학습, 집단지성)에 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다. 또한 POS는 위의 두 가지 리더십이 집단지성과 권한위임에 미치는 영향을 매개하였으나, 지속적 학습과의 관계에서는 매개 효과가 없었다. 결론적으로 본 연구는 애자일 문화를 구축하기 위해서는 애자일 문화에 적합한 리더십과 조직지원에 대한 직원들의 확신이 매우 중요하다는 것을 시사하고 있다.
