Özet

Lider-takipçi etkileşimi alanında yapılan akademik çalışmaların çoğu tek bir kavramla özetlenebilir: Lider-Üye Etkileşimi. Bu kavramın liderlik ve örgütler üzerine yapılan araştırmalarda çok önemli bir rol oynadığı göz önünde bulundurulduğunda, lider-üye etkileşimin iyi anlaşılması, ölçülmesi ve güvenilir bir şekilde incelenmesi büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, çalışanların aşırı iş yükü algılarının lider-üye etkileşimi üzerindeki etkisini ve bu ilişkide psikolojik esnekliğin düzenleyici rolünü araştırmaktır. Araştırmanın örneklemini Osmaniye organize sanayi bölgesinde istihdam edilen 340 beyaz yakalı çalışan oluşturmaktadır. Toplanan verileri analiz etmek için yapısal eşitlik modellemesi (YEM) kullanılmıştır. Aşırı iş yükü lider-üye etkileşimini olumsuz yönde etkilerken, artan psikolojik esneklik düzeyi aşırı iş yükü ile lider-üye etkileşimi arasındaki olumsuz ilişkiyi azaltmaktadır. Bu çalışma, aşırı iş yükü, lider-üye etkileşimi ve psikolojik esneklik arasındaki potansiyel ilişkiye ışık tutarak mevcut bilgi birikimine değerli bir katkı sağlamaktadır.

Abstract

Most of the academic work that has been done in the field of leader-follower interactions may be summarized in one concept: the Leader-Member Exchange. In light of the fact that this concept plays a pivotal role in the research conducted on leadership and organizations, it is of utmost importance that leader-member exchange is well understood, quantified, and examined in a reliable way. In this research, the antecedents of leader-member exchange at the subordinate level are investigated. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of employees' perceptions of work overload on leader-member exchange and the moderating role of psychological flexibility in this relationship. The research sample consists of 340 white-collar employees employed in the Osmaniye organized industrial zone. Structural equation modeling (SEM) has been utilized to analyze the collected data. While work overload negatively affects leader-member exchange, increased psychological flexibility level moderates the negative relationship between work overload and leader-member interaction. By shedding light on the potential relationship between work overload, leader-member contact, and psychological flexibility, this study makes a valuable contribution to the existing body of knowledge.
