ŞİRKET GİRİŞİMCİLİĞİNİN ŞİRKET PERFORMANSINA ETKİLERİ

Abstract

Şirket Girişimciliği üzerine yürütülen çalışmalar son yıllarda hızlı bir artış göstermektedir. Literatürde genel kabul gören şirket girişimciliği boyutlarının- risk alma, proaktiflik, yenilikçilik eğilimi- örgütlerde ürün ve hizmet kalitesindeki geliştirmelerin yanı sıra firmaların karlılık, satışlar ve pazar paylarındaki artış gibi başarı kriterlerine önemli katkıları olduğu belirtilmektedir. Bu etkilerin Türk KOBİ'lerindeki durumunu tespit amacıyla, bu tür firmaların yoğunlukta olduğu Ankara OSTİM Sanayi bölgesindeki ihracat yönelimli firmalardan anket yoluyla toplamış olduğumuz veriler hiyerarşik regresyon yöntemi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular yorumlanarak girişimci, yönetici ve araştırmacılar için öneriler sunulmuştur.
