學校長의 指導性과 敎師의 職務滿足에 대한 關係性 硏究

Abstract

This study was intended to investigate the relationship between school principal's leadership and teacher's job satisfaction. For this purpose, the questionnaire research was conducted for teachers on school principal's leadership and teacher's job satisfaction. Data were statistically processed using the SAS program. Pearson product moment correlation coefficient(r) was calculated and t-test, analysis of variance(ANOVA) and f-test were conducted. Based upon the study results, the following conclusion were drawn: First, the teacher's morale rises when the school principal's leadership is goal-oriented and people-oriented, and the teacher's affiliation rises when the school principal's leadership is people-oriented. The teacher shows impulse and consideration when the school principal's leadership is more goal-oriented and people-oriented. Second, the school principal should exhibit his/her leadership so that teachers may proceed to perform their role in an active way and carry out their job by motivating them to engage in task-oriented behavior as the member of the organization. That is, teachers' level of job satisfaction would not only rise but the educational effect would increase as well when the school principal exhibits efficient leadership by harmonizing people-orientation and goal-orientation. Third, it is a desirable phenomenon that along with the development of male teachers' level of perception on teaching profession, female teachers have the raised level of job satisfaction due to the possibility of self-realization within the school organization. But it would be necessary to foster the climate to consult and consider the alternative if an educational problem arises from the educational field that tends to become feminized with the increasing number of female teachers. Fourth, teachers with low teaching experiences comes to undergo many conflicts from superiors or administrators. The school function should be allowed to improve in a desirable way by organically combining highly experienced teachers' field experiences and accumulated wisdom and young teachers' passion and creativity to resolve these conflicts. Fifth, teachers' job satisfaction has an positive effect on organizational development. Therefore, it is necessary to foster the organizational climate that well reflects teachers' opinions and allows them to meet their self-realization needs under the liberal atmosphere in order to enhance their job satisfaction. And the school principal should exhibit goal-oriented and people-oriented leadership to foster the school organizational climate that allows teachers to participate in autonomous in-service training and all sorts of social programs and enhance their capability for the purpose of their growth and development.
