LMX의 TMGT 효과와 팀 동적역량의 교차수준 조절역할: 소방공무원을 중심으로

Over the past 40 years, LMX has become significant theory of the leadership in matters of concerning employee’s attitude, behavior and achievement, and also its positive effect has been proven through a series of theoretical consideration and meta-analysis. Since the effect of TMGT(too much of good thing) was presented in 2000s, the good effect of LMX has been called into question though. Based on social exchange theory, the effect of TMGT of LMX has been produced. This reflects the needs for analyzing a nonlinear relationship between LMX and innovative behavior in terms of stress theory, dominance compatibility perspective. Moreover the team dynamic capability, recently has been spotlighted, which is implicit an intellectual faculty of team and increase an procedural rationality of team, will be discussed as well as the cross-level moderating role of team dynamic capability. This study investigated whether LMX in firefighters, who play the leading role in putting out a fire, saving a life, rescuing & emergency medical services, would U-shaped nonlinear impact innovative behavior. In addition, We investigated whether the cross-level moderating role of team dynamic capability would mitigate the relationship between LMX and innovative behavior. The analytical result based on the collected data from 66 team leaders and 251 of team members should provide an Indication that LMX influences U-shaped nonlinear effect on the innovative behavior. Furthermore in contrast with its hypothesis, it has been indicated that more dynamic capability results in enhanced inverse U-shaped nonlinear effect which LMX makes impact on innovative behavior. In addition to managerial implications, the limitation and further direction of research have been discussed in this study.
