Abstract

Üretimin ve beraberinde rekabetin artışı, işletmelerin rakiplerinin önüne geçmek için yeni fikirlere, yeni yöntemlere ihtiyaç duymasına sebep olmuştur. Yeni ve yaratıcı fikirlerin ortaya çıkması için işletmeler çeşitli yöntemlere başvurmuş, yenilikçiliği teşvik etmişlerdir. Bu çalışmada, iş insanlarının, farklı disiplinlerden gelen bireylerin bir sorunun çözümü veya yeni bir fikrin tartışılması ile ilgili fikir alışverişlerinden ortaya çıkacak kenar etkisi ile ilgili ne kadar fikir sahibi oldukları tartışılmış ve iş insanlarının kurmuş olduğu STK’ların yönetim kurullarına kenar etkisinden faydalanabilmeleri için öneriler sunulmuştur. Çalışmada nitel araştırma yöntemleri kullanılmış, gömülü kuram ve örnek olay tasarımlarına başvurulmuştur. Üç farklı yöntemle veri toplanarak QDA Miner programı yardımı ile analiz edilmiş ve yorumlanmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda ise iş insanlarına üyesi oldukları STK’lar aracılığı ile kenar etkisinden faydalanabilmeleri için öneriler sunulmuştur.
