Lider-üye etkileşiminin sosyal sermaye ile ilişkisinde algılanan örgütsel güvenin rolü

Leader-member exchange is a concept that has an impact on the decisions of individuals regarding the organization, their steps towards the business, and ultimately their relationships with their environment. Similarly, individuals' perceptions of organizational trust is a concept that affects their adaptation to the organization they are in and their relationships with their colleagues and students. The concept of social capital, on the other hand, emerges as an increasingly important concept for organizations and societies. Thus, in this study, it is aimed to examine the relationships between leader-member exchange and organizational trust concepts with the social capital. As a result of the literature review; It is assumed that there may be a positive relationship between the leader-member exchange and social capital, and that the organizational trust can play a moderator role in this relationship. In order to test the model proposed in the research, analyzes were carried out on the data obtained by survey management from 226 teachers working in the education sector within the framework of a cross-sectional study. A personal information form containing demographic information and a questionnaire structured with leader-member exchange, organizational trust and social capital scales were shared with the participants. After the data was collected, statistical analysis including factor analysis, correlation analysis, independent groups T tests and multiple regression analysis were applied. As a result of these analyzes, it was determined that there is a positive and significant relationship between social capital with both leader-member interaction and organizational trust variables, and the H1 and H2 hypotheses of the study were supported. The results of the analysis also showed that the organizational trust has a partial moderator effect on the relationship between leader-member exchange and social capital, and the H3 hypothesis of the research is partially supported. These findings obtained as a result of the research were examined in terms of their theoretical and practical contributions.
