국내 팔로워십 연구동향 분석-2000~2017년 국내 학술지 게재 논문을 중심으로-

초록

The purpose of this research is to provide academic and practical viewpoints on followership by analyzing registered publications on the Korea Citation Index (KCI) and other journals between 2000 and 2017. For this, a total of 128 research publications were reviewed on research subjects, research topics and research methods. The publications were classified by the number of and ratio of papers published per year. The main findings are given below. First, the most commonly studied research subjects (about 50%) were domestic companies. Such studies on Korean companies were found to be leading the trends, as well as playing a role in expanding the research field of followership (including study into follower competence and types of followership). Second, research topics focused mostly on the influence of followership on leadership. This was seen in three forms: followership independent of leadership (leadership vs. followership), followership related to leadership (leadership and followership), and followership as a concept included in leadership (followership in leadership). An overwhelming number of studies has been done in the last form, implying that the role of a leader is considered crucial, and that leader-centered research is what is mainly conducted. Third, with regard to the research method, quantitative research method was most favored. Based on such results, we wish to contribute to the expansion and growth of research on followership, as well as present practical and theoretical implications for the direction of followership studies in the field of human resources development.
