GEORGIAN MANAGEMENT STYLE AND THE RESEARCH OF FACTORS AFFECTING THE BEHAVIOUR OF SUBORDINATES IN THE MINISTRIES OF ECONOMIC PROFILE

Abstract

The behaviour of a leader has a significant impact on the actions and feelings of employees. Many European university researchers have recently focused on the impact of effective leadership behaviour on the behaviour of subordinates. Positive behaviour of the leader toward his subordinate creates a sense of belonging to the organization, which reduces the outflow of employees from the organization and improves support for the leader. Leader's behaviour was studied within our research. The object of the research was the Ministries of Economic Profile of Georgia. The purpose of this article is to analyze the influence of the leader's behaviour in terms of gender on such issues as the respondent's perception of himself as a valuable member at work, support for the respondent's career development, motivation of employees to perform the work, effort invested by the respondent at work, and desire to change the leader. Furthermore, the study aimed to investigate the impact of financial benefits on employee satisfaction and motivation. In total, 821 respondents participated in the study. The SPSS software package was used to analyze the obtained data. In such countries as Georgia, there is a stereotypical attitude towards women. Sometimes, the mentioned factor is also reflected in the leader's behaviour. As a result, women have to overcome a variety of challenges, frequently face the glass ceiling phenomenon, and have to break stereotypes. In some cases, as a result of research, it is clear that not only women but also men show a negative attitude toward the leader's behaviour, which indicates the shortcomings of the current management style. Five hypotheses were formulated during the research process, and based on their analysis, we developed recommendations that we believe to be an effective way to solve multiple challenges.
