Abstract

This study investigates the effect of transformational leadership on employees’ affective organizational commitment and examines the mediating role of employee silence for this influence. Data is collected from a survey of 336 disaster and emergency management employees. Structural equation modeling is employed in order to test the research hypotheses. Both Baron & Kenny’s (1986) approach and a bootstrapping method are used simultaneously to test the mediating effect. The results indicate a positive effect of transformational leadership on affective commitment and this positive effect is shown to be partially mediated by employee silence.

Özet

Bu çalışma dönüşümcü liderliğin işgörenlerin örgütlerine olan duygusal bağlılıkları üzerindeki etkisini ve bu etkide işgören sessizliğinin aracılık rolünü incelemektedir. Çalışmanın verileri anket yöntemi kullanılarak 336 afet ve acil durum yönetimi işgöreninden toplanmıştır. Çalışmada araştırma hipotezlerinin testi için yapısal eşitlik modellemesi kullanılmıştır. Aracılık etkisinin testi için hem Baron ve Kenny (1986) yaklaşımı hem de önyükleme yöntemi eş zamanlı olarak kullanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularında; dönüşümcü liderliğin duygusal bağlılığı olumlu bir yönde etkilediği ve bu olumlu etkide işgören sessizliğinin kısmi aracılık etkisine sahip olduğu görülmüştür.
