Toksik Otoritenin Yansıması: Karanlık Liderlik ve İçsel İşten Ayrılma Arasındaki İlişkide Algılanan Mağduriyetin Aracı Rolü

Abstract

Bu çalışma; karanlık liderlik, algılanan mağduriyet ve içsel işten ayrılma arasındaki ilişkiyi, kamu kurumu çalışanları perspektifinden belirlemeyi amaçlamıştır. Bu amaçla, anket tekniği kullanılarak 385 kamu kurumu çalışanından veri toplanmıştır. Bulgular, karanlık liderlik algısının içsel işten ayrılma ve algılanan mağduriyet ile pozitif bir ilişkisinin olduğunu göstermiştir. Ayrıca, içsel işten ayrılma ile algılanan mağduriyet arasında da pozitif bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir. Araştırmanın dikkat çekici bulgusu ise algılanan mağduriyetin karanlık liderlik ve içsel işten ayrılma arasındaki ilişkide aracı bir rol oynamasıdır. Bulgular, kamu kurumlarında karanlık liderliğin varlığına dair kanıtlar sunmakta ve kurumlarda pozitif liderliğe duyulan ihtiyacı vurgulamaktadır. Bunun yanında çalışma; yöneticiler ve araştırmacılar için önemli çıkarımlar sunmaktadır.

Reflection of Toxic Authority: Mediating Role of Perceived Victimization in the Relationship between Dark Leadership and Inner Resignation

Abstract

This study aims to determine the relationship between dark leadership, perceived victimization, and inner resignation from the perspective of employees of public institutions. For this purpose, data were collected from 385 public institution employees using the survey technique. The findings showed that dark leadership has a positive relationship with inner resignation and perceived victimization. In addition, a positive relationship was also found between inner resignation and perceived victimization. The remarkable finding of the study is that perceived victimization plays a mediating role in the relationship between dark leadership and inner resignation. The study provides evidence of the existence of dark leadership in public institutions and emphasizes the need for positive leadership in organizations. Thus, the results offer important implications for managers and researchers.
