Abstract

Bu çalışma, Kurumsal Teori, Temsilcilik Teorisi, Yönetim Teorisi, Stratejik Liderlik Teorisi, Paydaş Teorisi, Durumsallık Teorisi, Kaynak Bağımlılığı Teorisi, Kısa Vadeli Piyasa Teorisi ve İşlem Maliyeti Teorisi dahil olmak üzere yönetişim teorilerinin kapsamlı bir literatür incelemesini sunmaktadır. Örgütlerde sürdürülebilirlik hedeflerini benimsemek için temel itici güçleri belirlemek üzere teorik bir çerçeve geliştirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırma soruları, Foucault'nun güç kavramının örgütsel felsefede nasıl ortaya çıktığını, yönetişimdeki güç ilişkilerini ortaya çıkaran araç ve mekanizmaları ve yönetişim yaklaşımlarının davranışı nasıl şekillendirdiğini ele almaktadır. Çalışmanın orijinal katkısı, sürdürülebilirlik odaklı kurumsal iletişim stratejilerini etkileyen yönetimsel öncelikleri belirlemektir.

THE POWER DYNAMICS IN MANAGEMENT THEORIES: A FRAMEWORK FOR DETERMINING SUSTINABILITY GOALS IN CORPORATE COMMUNICATION

Year 2025, Volume: 18 Issue: 2, 1043 - 1070, 15.10.2025

Abstract

This study presents a comprehensive literature review of governance theories, including Institutional Theory, Agency Theory, Stewardship Theory, Strategic Leadership Theory, Stakeholder Theory, Contingency Theory, Resource Dependence Theory, Short-Term Market Theory, and Transaction Cost Theory. It aims to develop a theoretical framework to identify key drivers for adopting sustainability goals in organizations. Research questions address how Foucault’s concept of power manifests in organizational philosophy, the tools and mechanisms that reveal power relations in governance, and how governance approaches shape behavior. The study’s original contribution lies in identifying managerial priorities influencing sustainability-driven corporate communication strategies.
