Abstract

Ovaj diplomski rad bavi se istraživanjem povezanosti između transformacijskog vodstva, organizacijske privrženosti i zadovoljstva poslom zaposlenika u organizacijama u Republici Hrvatskoj. Transformacijsko vodstvo definira se kao stil vođenja koji se temelji na inspiriranju i motiviranju zaposlenika, poticanju intelektualne stimulacije i pružanju individualizirane podrške. U teorijskom dijelu rada, detaljno su obrađene tri ključne dimenzije organizacijske privrženosti: afektivna, kontinuirana i normativna privrženost. Pored toga, analizirani su i ključni faktori zadovoljstva poslom, s naglaskom na autonomiju zaposlenika, prirodu posla te međuljudske odnose unutar organizacije. Empirijski dio rada temelji se na kvantitativnom istraživanju provedenom putem online ankete, koja je obuhvatila uzorak od 200 zaposlenika iz različitih organizacija. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da transformacijsko vodstvo ima statistički značajan, ali umjeren utjecaj na afektivnu i normativnu privrženost, dok je utjecaj na kontinuiranu privrženost bio zanemariv. Nadalje, pokazalo se da transformacijsko vodstvo značajno pozitivno utječe na zadovoljstvo autonomijom zaposlenika, dok je utjecaj na zadovoljstvo prirodom posla bio negativan, što ukazuje na određene izazove koje transformacijsko vodstvo može donijeti u pogledu radnih zahtjeva. Ograničenja istraživanja uključuju korištenje prigodnog uzorka, mogućnost subjektivnosti odgovora te isključivo kvantitativni pristup analizi, što otvara prostor za daljnja istraživanja korištenjem mješovitih metoda.

Abstract (english)

This graduate thesis deals with the research of the connection between transformational leadership, organizational commitment and job satisfaction of employees in organizations in the Republic of Croatia. Transformational leadership is defined as a leadership style based on inspiring and motivating employees, encouraging intellectual stimulation and providing individualized support. In the theoretical part of the paper, three key dimensions of organizational commitment are detailed: affective, continuous and normative commitment. In addition, the key factors of job satisfaction were analyzed, with an emphasis on employee autonomy, the nature of work and interpersonal relationships within the organization. The empirical part of the work is based on quantitative research conducted through an online survey, which included a sample of 200 employees from different organizations. The research results showed that transformational leadership has a statistically significant but moderate influence on affective and normative attachment, while the influence on continuous attachment was negligible. Furthermore, it was shown that transformational leadership has a significant positive effect on satisfaction with employee autonomy, while the impact on satisfaction with the nature of work was negative, which indicates certain challenges that transformational leadership can bring in terms of work demands. Limitations of the research include the use of a convenience sample, the possibility of subjectivity in the answers, and an exclusively quantitative approach to analysis, which opens up space for further research using mixed methods.
