Günümüzde teknolojik anlamda gelişmeler doğrultusunda organizasyonlarda değişmeler yaşanmaktadır. Bu bağlamda kavramlar arasında örgütsel davranışın ilgilendiği konulardan biri olan adanmışlık, organizasyon başarısında etkili bir durumu olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Organizasyonlar çalışanlarına önem vererek yani “insan” faktörü ile rekabetçi avantaj sağlayacaktır. Bu bağlamda adanmışlık sürecinin çalışan değer teklifi olarak özellikle işe alımda sunulması emek pazarındaki yetenekleri ve potansiyel adayların örgüte uygun fiyatlarda ve hızlı bir işe alım çevrim hızı ile çekilmesini sağlayacaktır. Adanmışlık kavramının içerisinde her zaman bir “karanlık” yanın bulunması sürekli üzerinde bir araştırma yapılmasını tetiklemektedir. İnsanların örgütler arasında hızlı geçişleri ve bağlılık sözleşmelerinin kısa ve kırılgan olması adanmışlığın karanlık ve bilinmezlik yapısının her zaman mevcut olacağını bizlere bir  defa daha hatırlatmaktadır. Yukarıda belirttiğimiz bu yapı adanmışlıkta mutlak ve keskin anlamda başarılı olmamızı engellemektedir. Örgütlerin artık adanmışlığı yeni bir iş gerçekliği olarak tanıması gerekliliği ortaya çıkmıştır. Tanıma gerekliliği üzerinde sürekli olarak yeterince duranlar rekabetçi avantajda bir adım öne çıkmaktadırlar. Adanmışlık durumu, birey ve organizasyon yapısı çerçevesinde birçok unsurla etkileşim göstermektedir. Tutumlar, davranışlar ve oluşan örgüt kültürü çalışanların adanmışlık seviyesini etkileyen unsurlardandır. Bu bağlamda, bu çalışmada adanmışlık konusunda teorik bir yaklaşım ortaya konulacaktır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

AN ENDLESS PROCESS: ENGAGEMENT

Öz

 Nowadays organizations are changing according to the direction of technological development. In this context, commitment which is one of the topics related to organizational behavior among the concepts emerges as an effective situation in the success of the organization. Organizations provide a competitive advantage by giving importance to their employees and "human" factor. Also, the commitment period will ensure that the talents of the labor market and potential candidates are withdrawn at a reasonable price and at a fast recruitment cycle especially in recruitment process as an employee value proposition. The fact that there is always a "dark" side in the concept of commitment always triggers a research on it. Rapid transitions among people and loyalty commitments which are short and fragile remind us once more that the darkness and the blindness of commitment process will always be present. This structure we have mentioned above prevents us from being successful in absolute and sharp sense of commitment. Cause of that nowadays organizations need to recognize commitment as a new business reality. Persistent enough to recognize commitment is a step in the competitive advantage side. The state of commitment interacts with many elements within the framework of individual and organizational structure. Also, attitudes, behaviors, and organizational culture are factors affecting the level of commitment of employees. Because of that in this study, a theoretical approach to commitment will be introduced.
