The purpose of this study is to find out how the employees recognize on the characteristics for each leadership type of the secretary general of social welfare residential institution and what kind of relationship can be found with the characteristics for each leadership type of the secretary general and the organizational commitment of employee. In order to accomplish the purpose of such study, this study selected the sample group of people with the license for social worker in 42 social welfare residential institutions (facilities for children, the disabled, mentally disturbed, and the homeless) where secretary general is present from the social welfare residential institutions in Jeollanam-do and implemented the data of 576 persons with the frequency and t-test, F-test, correlations and regression analysis. Through this study, following several conclusions are obtained.
First, with respect to the type of leadership for the secretary general of social welfare residential institution, employees recognize that secretary general has the characteristics as the servant leader, and from the lower factor of servant leadership, the recognition score of consensus was the highest while the healing was analyzed as the lowest in relative terms.
Second, the analysis result on the level of each leadership type of secretary general shows that g1 is considered as the subject of negotiation and exchange as well as charismatic being as the current facilities service experience of the employee is less but yet to recognize the leadership factor, such as providing the change and motivation as well as growth of constituent and community formation for most important attribute. In the social welfare field, employees with less experience consider secretary general in its business relationship for charisma and accurate discretion to grant the objectives, changes and motivation, but it lacks the factors such as, respect for them, listening attitude, healing and intuitive capability. For employees majored in the social welfare studies, factors of transaction, innovation and servant leadership as the important factors.
Third, employees showed relatively high level for the organizational commitment and they have the affection toward the facilities where they work to be in unilateral position as they own, but they also have the intent for job transfer. Employees with substantial experience at the site have more affection on the facilities where they work and consider the organization with the consistency.
And fourth, the analysis result on the relationship of the leadership of secretary general and the organizational commitment of employee is analyzed as having the leadership variables and organizational commitment to show positive influential relationship in general, and the contingent reward of transactional leadership with the highest influential relationship. In addition, as a result of the regression analysis to find out how transactional, transformational and servant leadership influence on organizational commitment, mutually different influence was on the transactional leadership for the entire organizational commitment while the lower factor of the servant leadership influencing on the organizational commitment. For considering as consistent, the influence was made in the order of management by exception, growth of constituent, and recognition, and, for affection, awareness and community building were shown to be the factor with great influence. For characteristics, in the intent to continuous service of the organizational commitment, lower factors in transactional, transformational and servant leadership would make no influence at all. This type of result in intent to continue to work in the field has strong negative aspect in remaining in organization for economic interest and the like, rather than the positive aspect on the organization that the influence of the leadership type on the continuing work was not noticeable. In conclusion, the factors influencing on the organizational commitment of employees were the transactional leadership and servant leadership, and the transactional leadership did not influence on the organizational commitment. This type of result could be considered as the fact that the living facilities was somewhat closed with the strong authorization structure that there was no need to assert the transformational leadership or its condition to build on that, from the leadership types asserted by secretary general did not include the elements of transformational leadership that it would have negligible influence of employees on the organizational commitment, and many living facilities still in operation under the clan succession system with non-democratic aspects that employees did not have much interest in high-level motivation granting strategies, such as, change and visions.
On the basis of the above study result, following proposals have been made.
