Lider-Üye Etkileşimi ve Örgütsel Bağlılık İlişkisi: Spor Kurumları Çalışanları Üzerinde Bir İnceleme

Bu çalışmada, spor kurumlarına odaklanılarak, lider-üye etkileşimi ve örgütsel bağlılık arasındaki ilişkilerin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmaya Türkiye’nin batısında bulunan çeşitli illerdeki spor kurumlarında görev yapan çalışanlar katılmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak tek boyutlu Lider-Üye Etkileşim ölçeği ve üç boyutlu Örgütsel Bağlılık ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Veriler üzerinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, güvenirlik analizi, korelasyon ve regresyon analizleri yapılmıştır. Analiz sonuçları, lider-üye etkileşiminin örgütsel bağlılık üzerinde anlamlı ve pozitif bir etkisi olduğunu göstermiştir. Örgütsel bağlılığın alt boyutları üzerindeki etkiler incelendiğinde, lider-üye etkileşiminden duygusal bağlılığın ve normatif bağlılığın etkilendiği görülmüştür. Bu sonuçlar, lider-üye etkileşim kalitesinin işletmelerdeki çalışanların örgütsel bağlılığını artırmada önemli olduğunu ortaya çıkarmıştır.

Examining the Relationship Leader-Member Exchange and Organizational Commitment: A Study in Sports Organizations

This study aimed to examine the relationships between leader-member exchange (LMX) and organizational commitment (OC) by focusing on sports organizations. Employees working at the sports organizations of the various provinces in the western part of Turkey participated in this study. One-dimensional LMX scale and three-dimensional OC scale were used as data collection tools. For the analysis of the data, descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, correlation, and regression analyzes were performed. Analysis results showed that LMX had a significant and positive effect on OC. When the effects of LMX on the sub-dimensions of OC were examined, it was observed that only affective commitment and normative commitment were affected by LMX. These results emphasized that LMX quality was important in creating an OC of employees in organizations.
