20.500.12556/RUL-183379 Služnostno vodenje in izgorelost pri strokovnih delavcih vloga temeljnih psiholoških potreb Servant leadership and burnout among white-collar workers the role of basic psychological needs Ob vse večjih delovnih zahtevah in stalnih spremembah narašča tudi tveganje za nastanek izgorelosti, zato je pomembno odkrivanje mehanizmov za njeno preprečevanje. V delovnih okoljih imajo pri tem pomembno vlogo vodje, saj lahko z ustreznimi pristopi ustvarijo pogoje, v katerih zaposleni dosegajo svoje potenciale in ohranjajo celostno zdravje. Po Teoriji samodoločenosti nam slednje omogoča zadovoljenost temeljnih psiholoških potreb po avtonomnosti, kompetentnosti in povezanosti. Izmed pozitivnih stilov vodenja pa je služnostno tisto, ki neposredno naslavlja potrebe zaposlenih, zato je namen magistrskega dela raziskati mediatorsko vlogo temeljnih psiholoških potreb v odnosu med služnostnim vodenjem in izgorelostjo. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 669 polnoletnih strokovnih delavcev v Sloveniji, ki imajo neposredno nadrejenega in so redno zaposleni v javnem ali zasebnem sektorju. Podatke smo analizirali s strukturnim modeliranjem enačb ter validirali v slovenščino prevedena vprašalnika za merjenje temeljnih psiholoških potreb in služnostnega vodenja. Rezultati niso pokazali neposrednega učinka služnostnega vodenja na nižjo izgorelost strokovnih delavcev. Odnos med služnostnim vodenjem in izgorelostjo je statistično značilno posredovala le zadovoljenost potrebe po avtonomnosti, medtem ko potrebi po kompetentnosti in povezanosti nista imeli pomembne mediatorske vloge. Ugotovitve kažejo, da služnostni vodje na nižjo izgorelost strokovnih delavcev delujejo posredno z ustvarjanjem pogojev za zadovoljenost potrebe po avtonomnosti. Rezultati prispevajo k boljšemu razumevanju mehanizmov zmanjševanja izgorelosti v organizacijskem kontekstu in izpostavljajo pomen razvoja vodstvenih praks, usmerjenih v podporo avtonomnosti. With increasing job demands and continuous changes in working environment, the risk of burnout is also rising, making it important to identify mechanisms for its prevention. In organizational settings, leaders play a key role in this process, as they can create conditions that enable employees to reach their potential and maintain overall well-being. According to Self Determination Theory, this is achieved through the satisfaction of the basic psychological needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Among positive leadership styles, servant leadership directly addresses employees’ needs. Therefore, the aim of this master’s thesis was to examine the mediating role of basic psychological needs in the relationship between servant leadership and burnout. The study included 669 white-collar employees in Slovenia, who have a direct supervisor and are employed full-time in either the public or private sector. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling, and Slovene versions of the two translated instruments for measuring basic psychological needs and servant leadership were validated. The results did not indicate a direct effect of servant leadership on lower burnout among white-collar workers. The relationship between servant leadership and burnout was significantly mediated only by the satisfaction of the need for autonomy, whereas the needs for competence and relatedness did not demonstrate significant mediating role. Our findings suggest that servant leaders influence lower burnout among white-collar workers indirectly by fostering conditions that support the satisfaction of the need for autonomy. These results contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying burnout reduction in organizational contexts and highlight the importance of developing leadership practices that support autonomy. uslužnostno vodenje izgorelost strokovni delavci psihološke potrebe servant leadership burnout white-collar workers psychological needs true false false [L.
