工作特性與政治技術之相關性研究

Research on the Relationship between Job Characteristic and Political Skill

指導教授 : 林傑毓

摘要


政治技術可視為一種人際間的社交技巧,本論文研究目的旨在探討工作特性與政治技術的相關性。本研究主要分成兩個部份,第一部份係透過社會網絡的觀點,探索工作特性對政治技術使用程度之影響;第二部份則是探討公私部門員工政治技術使用程度差別。本研究所採用之工作特性共有五個構面,分別為技能多樣性、任務完整性、任務重要性、任務自主性、任務回饋性;政治技術有四個構面,分別為社交機敏度、人際間影響力、聯合關係網絡能力、外表的坦率。 本論文主要採用問卷調查方式來進行研究,總共收集兩份樣本(n1=244, n2 =177)進行分析。本研究首先進行政治技術的量表設計,採用第一份樣本(n1 =244)來對40項政治技術原始題庫進行篩選與整理,最後得到15項政治技術量表題項,並檢驗其信度與效度。此外,再歸納整理工作診斷量表的內容,形成衡量工作特性之題項,並使用第二份樣本(n2=177)來驗證工作特性與政治技術使用程度的關係。最後則是利用這兩份樣本資料來檢定公家部門員工與私人企業員工是否在政治技術使用上具有明顯差別。 實證結果發現當工作之技能多樣性、任務完整性與重要性愈高時,則政治技術的使用程度就愈高;當工作之自主性與回饋性愈高時,則政治技術的使用程度反而較低。另外,公家部門員工在各項政治技術之使用,皆高於私人企業員工。在研究貢獻上,本文提出工作特性與政治技術間之關係架構,以探索政治技術的使用前因,有別於過去研究文獻普遍將政治技術放置於前因位置來進行討論之情形。在實務貢獻上,本文提出管理者該如何利用工作設計來管理員工的政治技術使用,並分析公私部門員工在政治技術使用上的差異,讓實務界在行政或是企業管理上可以應用與參考。

Political skills can be viewed as a kind of interpersonal social skills. The thesis aims to analyze the relationship between job characteristics and political skills. There are two parts in the present study. The first part is to explore how job characteristics influence political skill utilization through the point of view of social network; and the second part is to investigate the difference in political skill utilization between public and private sectors. The job characteristics include five dimensions: skill variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, and feedback. There are four dimensions in political skills: social astuteness, interpersonal influence, networking ability, and apparent sincerity. The questionnaire survey was used in the study, and two sets of samples (n1=244, n2=177) were analyzed. The study used the first sample set (n1=244) to develop a 15-item political skill measurement scale from the 40-item political skill inventory pool. The measurement of job characteristics was developed based on the Job Diagnostic Survey. Subsequently, the study used the second sample set (n2=177) to examine the relationship between job characteristics and political skills. The two sets of samples were used together to investigate difference in political skill utilization between public and private sectors. Research findings reveal that employees are more likely to utilize political skills when they perceive higher in skill variety, task identity as well as task significance, and lower in autonomy and feedback of job characteristics. The utilization of political skills is significantly higher in public sectors than in provate sectors. The thesis contributes to the literature by taking job characteristics as the antecedent of political skills. The research results can provide some suggestions for managers in job design that may facilitate the management of political skills.
