WHAT AFFECTS EMPLOYEE MOTIVATION AT IT PROJECTS IN TURKEY? THE IMPACT OF LEADER COMMUNICATION, WAGE SATISFACTION, AND JOB OPPORTUNITIES AT IT PROJECTS EMPLOYEE’S

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing employee motivation and performance of information technology projects in Turkey and the perception of employee motivation next to it and investigate the effect of redundancy request. The employee on different IT projects was selected in Turkey for this study. Seven hypotheses were developed and tested by using literature studies and survey data obtained together. For the hypothesis tests, structural equation modeling was performed by using SPSS and AMOS programs. As a result of the application, five hypotheses were accepted, and two hypotheses were rejected. According to the results of the analysis, it is seen that employee-manager relationships and wage satisfaction have a positive effect on employee motivation. In addition, the hypothesis that the relationship between employee and manager affects performance other than motivation was supported. Also, perceived alternative job opportunities were found to have a positive effect on willingness to leave and a negative impact on employee motivation. The results were interpreted in support of the literature, and suggestions were made to shed light on future studies, and the study was completed in this way.
