KUŞAKLARARASI İŞ BİRLİĞİNİ ANLAMAK: ÇOK KUŞAKLI İŞ GÜCÜNDE KARŞILAŞILAN ZORLUKLAR VE İŞ BİRLİĞİ STRATEJİLERİNİ KEŞFETMEK

Year 2024, Volume: 6 Issue: 1, 15 - 43, 31.07.2024

Abstract

Bu kavramsal çalışma, çok kuşaklı iş gücünde kuşaklar arası iş birliğinin zorluklarını ve fırsatlarını keşfetmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma, farklı kuşaklar arasında etkili iş birliğini kolaylaştırabilecek iletişim, yönetim ve iş birliği stratejilerini içeren kuşaklar arası iş birliğinin dinamiklerini anlamak için teorik bir çerçeve sunmaktadır. Yöntem bölümünde, bu kavramsal çalışmanın geliştirilmesinde kullanılan araştırma tasarımı, literatür tarama süreci ve sentez yaklaşımı ana hatlarıyla açıklanmaktadır. Çeşitli akademik kaynaklardan yararlanarak, çalışma, çok kuşaklı iş gücünde kuşaklar arası iş birliğini anlamak ve teşvik etmek için sağlam bir teorik çerçeve sağlamayı hedeflemektedir. Farklı disiplinlerden mevcut literatüre dayanarak, çalışma, değer farklılıkları, liderlik tarzları, teknolojik benimseme, değişim ve iletişim tarzları gibi kuşaklar arası iş birliğini etkileyen faktörleri incelemektedir. Çalışma ayrıca kuşaklar arası iş birliğinin artan yaratıcılık, yenilikçilik ve bilgi paylaşımı gibi potansiyel faydalarını vurgulamaktadır. Son olarak, çalışma, iş yerinde kuşaklar arası iş birliğini güçlendirmek için mentorluk programları, profesyonel gelişim ve iletişim tarzlarını içeren stratejiler önermektedir. Bu çalışmanın bulguları, iş yerinde kuşaklar arası iş birliğinin önemini daha iyi anlamaya katkıda bulunacak ve farklı kuşaklar arasında iş birliğini destekleyen politika ve programların geliştirilmesine rehberlik edecektir. Genel olarak, çalışma, kuşaklar arası iş birliği ve bu iş birliğinin örgütsel başarı ve bireysel refahı teşvik etmedeki rolü üzerine daha fazla araştırma ve tartışmayı teşvik etmeyi amaçlamaktadır.

UNDERSTANDING INTERGENERATIONAL COLLABORATION: EXPLORING CHALLENGES AND COLLABORATION STRATEGIES IN THE MULTIGENERATIONAL WORKFORCE

Year 2024, Volume: 6 Issue: 1, 15 - 43, 31.07.2024

Abstract

This conceptual paper aims to explore the challenges and opportunities of intergenerational collaboration in the multigenerational workforce. The paper provides a theoretical framework for understanding the dynamics of intergenerational collaboration, including the communication, management, and collaboration strategies that can facilitate effective collaboration among different generations. The method section outlines the research design, literature review process, and synthesis approach used in developing this conceptual paper. By drawing on a diverse range of academic sources, the paper aims to provide a robust theoretical framework for understanding and promoting intergenerational collaboration in the multigenerational workforce. Drawing on existing literature from various disciplines, the paper examines the factors that influence intergenerational collaboration, including differences in values, leadership styles, technological adoption, change and communication styles. The paper also highlights the potential benefits of intergenerational collaboration, such as increased creativity, innovation, and knowledge sharing. Finally, the paper proposes strategies for strengthening intergenerational collaboration in the workplace, including mentorship programs, professional development and communication styles. The findings of this paper will contribute to a better understanding of the importance of intergenerational collaboration in the workplace and inform the development of policies and programs that support collaboration among different generations. Overall, the paper aims to stimulate further research and discussion on the topic of intergenerational collaboration and its role in promoting organisational success and individual well-being.
