Abstract

According to the flow of times, livelihood autonomy centered on residents is strengthened, and the necessity for existence of residents' association to solve various local problems by themselves, to raise awareness of democratic participation, and to revitalize local autonomy is emerging. The residents' association is a representative organization for residents' autonomy and a public-private cooperative organization for Eup, Myeon, and Dong. Residents' associations perform various tasks such as matters necessary for harmony and development of residents in the Eup, Myeon, and Dong, matters concerning the handling of affairs entrusted by local governments, and other matters entrusted by relevant laws, ordinances, or rules. Of the 3,500 Eup, Myeon, and Dong, there were 47 local residents' associations in 2017, but the number increased to 1,013 in 2021. This thesis conducted a study on leadership of an organization named the Residents' Association, organizational culture, and organizational performance. This study investigated the situation for organization of residents' association and derived its implications through empirical analysis(Residents' Association Leaders n=125). The empirical analysis results are as follows. Firstly, in the leadership of residents' association(structure-led type, considerate type) and organizational culture(rational culture, hierarchical culture, development culture, consensus culture) of the residents' association, structural-led leadership had a significant positive (+) influence on rational culture, considerate-typed leadership had a significant positive (+) influence on rational culture, developmental culture, and consensus culture. Secondly, in organizational culture(rational culture, hierarchical culture, developmental culture, consensus culture) and organizational performance(non-financial performance, financial performance), rational culture and consensus culture had a significant positive (+) influence on non-financial performance and rational culture had a significant positive (+) influence on financial performance. Lastly, in the leadership(structural-led type, considerate type) and organizational performance(non-financial performance, financial performance), structural-led leadership had a significant positive (+) influence on financial performance, and considerate type had a significant positive influence on financial performance. Currently, studies on residents' associations are insufficient, and there are no studies on leadership of residents' associations, organizational culture, and organizational performance. The history of studies on Residents' Associations, which started in 2013, is as short as 10 years. Therefore, a lot of studies and interests are needed to develop local residents' association in the future.
