ÇALIŞANLARIN LİDER-ÜYE ETKİLEŞİMİ ALGISI İLE İŞE ADANMIŞLIK İLİŞKİSİ VE BİR ARAŞTIRMA

Günümüzün dinamik, belirsizliğe açık ve değişken koşullarında çalışanların ortalama bir çaba göstermesi yetersiz kalabilmektedir. Bu bağlamda örgütlerin, enerjik ve kendini işine adamış çalışanlara ihtiyaç duydukları gözlemlenmektedir. Söz konusu durum, işe adanmışlık kavramının önem kazanmasına yol açmıştır. İşe adanmışlıkta liderin önemli bir rol oynadığı belirtilmektedir. Bu doğrultuda çalışmada, lider ve üye arasındaki karşılıklı ilişkileri vurgulayan lider-üye etkileşimine odaklanılmıştır. Araştırmanın amacı, lider-üye etkileşiminin işe adanmışlık üzerindeki etkisinin incelenmesidir. Bu çalışmada, ayrıca lider-üye etkileşiminin alt boyutlarının işe adanmışlık üzerindeki etkisi de ele alınmıştır. Söz konusu etkinin incelenmesinde, Sosyal Mübadele Kuramı ile Kaynakların Korunması Kuramından yararlanılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında gerçekleştirilen araştırmada veriler elektronik ortamda toplanmıştır ve toplamda 242 kişiye ulaşılmıştır. Yapılan tekli regresyon analizleri sonucunda, lider-üye etkileşiminin işe adanmışlığı pozitif yönde etkilediği saptanmıştır. Gerçekleştirilen analizler doğrultusunda lider-üye etkileşiminin alt boyutları olan duygusal etkileşim, katkı, sadakat ve profesyonel saygının işe adanmışlığı pozitif yönde etkilediği de tespit edilmiştir.

Anahtar Kelimeler:

Thus, work engagement has received increased attention. It is argued that the leader plays a crucial role on employees’ work engagement. This article study therefore focuses on the leader-member exchange, which emphasizes the mutual relationships between the leader and the members. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of the leader-member exchange on work engagement. The effect of dimensions of the leader-member exchange on work engagement was also examined.

According to the simple regression analyses results, it was found that the leader-member exchange had a positive effect on work engagement. In addition, it was found that the dimensions of leader-member exchange such as contribution, loyalty, affect, and professional respect had a positive effect on work engagement.
