Abstract

U današnjem svijetu okarakteriziranim naglim razvojem tehnologije, najbržim protokom informacija ikada u povijesti i sveobuhvatnom globalizacijom, organizacije se suočavaju s jedinstvenim problemom opstanka na nikad kompetitivnijem tržištu proizvoda i usluga. Jedan od načina da organizacija razvije konkurentsku prednost upravo je kroz razvoj inovacija. Preduvjet za inovaciju je inovativno radno ponašanje zaposlenika, odnosno više etapni inovativni proces kojim su obuhvaćeni svi stadiji inovacije, od njenog osmišljanja do njene implementacije. Brojni znanstveni članci napisani su na temu inovativnoga radnog ponašanja i transformacijsko vodstvo se često spominje kao temeljni pokretač takvo ponašanja. Transformacijsko vodstvo predstavlja oblik vodstva u kojem lideri na radikalan način mijenjaju oblik ponašanja sljedbenika koji u fokus stavljaju ciljeve organizacije i daju od sebe više nego što je to od njih očekivano. Na taj način moguće je kod zaposlenika potaknuti inovativno ponašanje. U empirijskom dijelu rada istražuje se povezanost ova dva pojma na primjeru Privredne banke Zagreb te je u uzorak uzeto 56 zaposlenika iz različitih odjela banke. Zaposlenici su odgovarali na dva anketna upitnika, jedan vezan uz ocjenjivanje oblika vodstva nadređenih osoba te jedan temeljen na samoprocjeni inovativnoga ponašanja. Na temelju rezultata dobivenih iz istraživanje može se utvrditi povezanost između transformacijskog vodstva i inovativnoga radnog ponašanja zaposlenika.

Abstract (english)

In today's world characterised by rapid technological development and the fastest flow of information ever recorded in human history, combined with ever growing globalisation, many organisations are faced with the danger of not being able to survive in a highly competitive market. One of the ways in which organisations can keep their competitive edge is by producing and implementing different types of innovations. For that to come through, it is necessary for the organisation's work force to develop innovative work behaviour, which can be defined as a multi-staged innovative process which includes everything from idea generation to implementation of an innovation. Many articles have been written on the topic of innovative work behaviour and transformational leadership continues to be one of the prevalent factors that can have an effect on innovative work behaviour. Transformational leadership is a type of leadership in which leaders radically change their employee's behaviour in a way where they start focusing more on organisational goals than their own individual ones. They perform above and beyond expectations. The empirical research investigates the relationship between transformational leadership and innovative work behaviour. The research was conducted on a sample of 56 employees from different departments within Privredna banka Zagreb. Employees were given 2 questionnaires and asked to assess their supervisor's type of leadership and to rate their own work behaviour. Based on the results obtained from the research, it can be concluded that transformational leadership can positively affect innovative work behaviour.
