HİZMETKAR LİDERLİK VE PSİKOLOJİK GÜÇLENDİRME İLİŞKİSİ: ÖRGÜT KÜLTÜRÜNÜN DÜZENLEYİCİ ETKİSİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, hizmetkar liderlik ve psikolojik güçlendirme arasında anlamlı bir ilişkinin olup olmadığını ve bu ilişkide örgüt kültürünün düzenleyici etkisini belirlemektir. Çalışmanın örneklemi Eskişehir’de faaliyet gösteren bir mobilya fabrikası ile Balıkesir’de faaliyet gösteren borik-asit fabrikasıdır. Veriler anket yöntemi ile toplanmıştır. Bu kapsamda beş yüz yirmi altı anket analizlerde kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçları, hizmetkar liderlik ve psikolojik güçlendirme arasında anlamlı ve pozitif bir ilişkinin olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu sonuca göre hizmetkar liderlik tarzını benimseyen yöneticilerin takipçileri, kendilerini psikolojik olarak daha fazla güçlendirilmiş hissetmektedirler. Ayrıca örgüt kültürü alt boyutlarından klan kültürünün hizmetkar liderlik ve psikolojik güçlendirme arasındaki ilişki üzerinde düzenleyici etkisinin olduğu saptanmıştır. Bu çalışmanın en önemli kısıtı, çalışmanın sonuçlarının, araştırmanın sadece bir mobilya fabrikası ile bir borik-asit fabrikasında yapılması nedeniyle imalat sektörüne yönelik genellenememesidir
