Abstract

The aim of study was to examine the impact of the interpersonal strain at work on organizational memory. In addition, it aimed to make suggestions based on results. For analysis of the proposed theoretical model, 128 teachers, employed in schools in Arhavi, were sampled and the data were gathered by means of a questionnaire. The data was analyzed with the SPSS 25.0 software by conducting Pearson correlation and simple linear regression analyzes and presented in tables. The results revealed that the interpersonal strain at work has a negative and significant impact on organizational memory. The study concluded that managers should pay attention to prevent interpersonal strain at work in order to develop organizational memory.

Abstract

Çalışmanın amacı, işte kişilerarası gerilimin örgütsel hafıza üzerindeki etkisini incelemektir. Ayrıca, sonuçlara dayalı olarak önerilerde bulunmak da amaçlanmıştır. Konu edinilen teorik modelin analizi için Arhavi'deki okullarda çalışan 128 öğretmen örneklem olarak belirlenmiş ve veriler bir anket aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Veriler SPSS 25.0 programıyla Pearson korelasyon ve basit doğrusal regresyon testleri uygulanarak analiz edilmiş ve tablolar halinde sunulmuştur. Sonuçlar, kişilerarası gerilimin örgütsel hafıza üzerinde olumsuz ve anlamlı bir etkisi olduğunu ortaya çıkarmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda, yöneticilerin örgütsel hafızayı geliştirmek için işte kişilerarası gerilimi önlemeye dikkat etmesi gerektiği anlaşılmıştır.
