Lider Üye Etkileşim Kalitesinde Üyelerin Kişilik Özelliklerinin Rolü: Ankara’da Özel Bir Hastane Örneği

Amaç – Bu araştırma, çalışanların beş faktör kişilik özellikleri ile lider üye etkileşim kalitesi arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu doğrultuda yapılan araştırma, yeni geliştirilen lider üye etkileşimi ölçeğinde belirlenen alt boyular ile beş faktör kişilik özelliği alt boyutları arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem – Araştırmanın verileri 184 sağlık çalışanından yüz yüze uygulama ile toplanmış anket formlarından elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler SPSS2 20 ve AMOS paket programları ile analiz edilmiş ve yorumlanmıştır. Bulgular – Yapılan analizler sonucunda, lider üye etkileşiminin tüm alt boyutları ile beş faktör kişilik özelliklerinden dışadönüklük, uyumluluk, duygusal denge ve açıklık alt boyutları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişkilere rastlanmıştır. Tartışma – Araştırmadan elde edilen bulgular konuya ilişkin yapılan çalışmaların kimisini destekler nitelikte olsa da kimi araştırma sonuçları ile de örtüşmemektedir. Bu noktadan hareketle, kişilik özelliklerinin lider üye etkileşim kalitesi üzerinde, sektörel anlamda da değişkenlik gösterebileceği düşünülmektedir. Ancak sağlık çalışanlarının mesleki sorumluluk hisleri ve kişilik özelliklerinin, örgütsel ortamda yaşanılan lider ve ast ilişkileri üzerinde belirleyici bir unsur olduğu da gözlemlenmiştir.

The Role of Personality Traits of Subordinates on Leader Member Exchange Quality: Example of a Private Hospital in Ankara

Purpose – This research aims to reveal the relationship between five factor personality traits of subordinates and the quality of leader member exchange. Accordingly, the study was conducted to reveal the relationship between the sub-dimensions determined in the newly developed leader member exchange scale and five factor personality trait sub-dimensions. Design/methodology/approach – The data of the study were obtained from questionnaires collected by face to face implementation from 184 healthcare workers. The obtained data were analysed and interpreted with SPSS 20 and AMOS package programs. Findings – As a result of this analysis, statistically significant relationships were found between all sub-dimensions of leader member exchange and sub-dimensions of extraversion, agreeableness, neuroticism and openness among the five factor personality traits. Discussion – Although the findings obtained from the research support some of the studies on the subject, they do not coincide with some research results. From this point of view, it is thought that personality traits may vary on the quality of leader member Exchange on a sectoral basis. However, it has been observed that the sense of professional responsibility and personality traits of healthcare professionals are a determining factor on the leader and subordinate relationships experienced in the organizational environment.
