초록

본 연구는 카리스마적 리더십이 부하의 자긍심, 부하의 자발적 수용에 미치는 영향과 함께 카리스마적 리더십과 부하의 자발적 수용 간의 관계에서 자긍심의 매개효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 연구 모형 및 가설 검증을 위해 본 연구는 광주･전남 지역의 16개 조직, 480명의 종업원을 대상으로 설문지를 배포하였으며 수집된 설문서 411부가 가설검증에 사용되었다.
실증분석 결과 카리스마적 리더십은 부하의 자긍심에 정(+)의 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 카리스마적 리더십은 부하의 자발적 수용에도 정(+)의 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 부하의 자긍심은 카리스마적 리더십과 부하의 자발적 수용 간의 관계를 부분 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 다시 말해, 카리스마적 리더십은 부하의 자발적 수용에 직접적으로, 그리고 부하의 자긍심을 통해 간접적으로도 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 부하 자긍심의 매개효과를 검증함으로써 카리스마적 리더십이 부하의 자발적 수용을 이끄는 메커니즘을 실증하였다는 점에서 이론적, 실무적 의미를 지니고 있다. 연구결과를 토대로 연구의 한계 및 향후 연구방향을 제시하였다

This study empirically investigates the effects of charismatic leadership on followers’ self-esteem and followers’ voluntary acceptance and the mediating effect of followers’ ‘self-esteem on the relationship between charismatic leadership and follower’s voluntary acceptance.
To test these relationships, we collected data via a survey of data 480 employees in 16 organizations, and after excluding unanswered items questionnaires, data from a total of 411 employees were used for analysis. Charismatic leadership was measured by the 18-item scale developed by Kim et al.(2014). To measure self-esteem, we adopted the 7-items used by Crandal(1973) and Rosenberg(1965). Voluntary acceptance was measured by the 6-item scale used by Bond and Bruce(2002) and O’Reilly and Chatman(1986).The items were measured on a 5-point scale ranging from 1(strongly disagree) to 5(strongly agree).
Based on prior literature, three hypotheses were derived:

H1: Charismatic leadership will be positively related to followers’ self-esteem.
H2: Charismatic leadership will be positively related to followers’ voluntary acceptance.
H3: Followers’ self-esteem will mediate the relationship between charismatic leadership and followers’ voluntary acceptance.


Multiple hierachical regressions are used to test the proposed hypotheses. Sobel test is used to test the significance of the mediating effect of followers’ self-esteem.
The results show that charismatic leadership is positively associated with followers’ self-esteem and followers’ voluntary acceptance. Followers’ self-esteem has a partial mediating effect on the relationship between charismatic leadership and followers’ voluntary acceptance. This result means that charismatic leadership has both direct and indirect effects on followers’ voluntary acceptance.
Leaders in organizations should show charismatic leadership to increase subordinates’ self-esteem and voluntary acceptance. Also, organizations should carry out various programs to increase leader’s charismatic leadership.
Given the small number of samples, this study constitutes an exploratory attempt in nature. Caution must be exercised in attempting to interpret findings and to generalize the recommendations. The results proposed in this study must be validated by further research in diverse research settings. The results of this study are also limited by its cross-sectional design and by the use of a single method of data collection. Longitudinal and experimental designs are needed to uncover the dynamic relationships between charismatic leadership and followers’ voluntary acceptance. Additionally, for a comprehensive model of this research, future research must consider other variables that might reflect a more complex process than is depicted in our model.
