چکیده

ماهیت سازمان‌های دولتی و بروکراسی‌های غیر‌قابل انعطاف حاکم بر آنها موجب محدودیت هرچه بیشتر مدیران شده و آنها را صرفاً به مجری قوانین نهادهای قانون گزار تبدیل کرده است. در مواردی که مدیران قصد اعمال صلاحدید مدیریتی خویش را دارند، مهارت سیاسی و خصیصه جرأت ورزی به آنها کمک می‌کند تا با نیت خیرخواهانه قوانین موجود را نادیده گرفته و منفعت سازمانی را افزایش دهند. هدف اصلی تحقیق حاضر بررسی تأثیر مهارتهای سیاسی مدیران بر قانون‌شکنی خیرخواهانه با توجه به نقش میانجی جرأت‌ورزی در سازمان‌های دولتی است. پژوهش حاضر از نظر هدف کاربردی و از نظر شیوه گردآوری اطلاعات تحقیق، توصیفی-پیمایشی از نوع همبستگی و به طور مشخص مبتنی برمدل معادلات ساختاری است. جامعه آماری تحقیق شامل کلیه مدیران ارشد و میانی سازمان‌های دولتی استان ایلام هستند که تعداد آنها 280 نفر بوده و با استفاده از جدول مورگان تعداد 162 نفر از آنها به عنوان نمونه انتخاب گردیدند. روش نمونه­گیری در این تحقیق نمونه­گیری تصادفی ساده است. ابزار گردآوری داده‌ها پرسشنامه استاندارد بوده و برای تجزیه و تحلیل داده‌ها از نرم افزار ویژوال پی ال اس استفاده شده است. نتایج حاصل از تجزیه و تحلیل داده‌ها نشان داد که مهارت‌های سیاسی مدیران بر قانون‌شکنی خیرخواهانه با توجه به نقش میانجی جرأت ورزی در سازمان‌های دولتی استان ایلام تأثیر مثبت و معناداری دارد. همچنین ابعاد مهارتهای سیاسی مدیران نیز بر قانون شکنی خیرخواهانه در سازمان های دولتی استان ایلام تاثیر مثبت و معناداری دارند.
