Abstract

The rapid advancement of technology has accentuated the pivotal role of data, particularly with the emergence of big data across various sectors. This phenomenon has garnered substantial interest among researchers, practitioners, and decision-makers alike, prompting a concerted effort to elucidate the implications of big data on organizational dynamics and managerial strategies. This research undertakes a comprehensive review of the big data literature spanning from 2011 to 2023, aiming to dissect its multifaceted influences on management paradigms and organizational behaviour. Specifically, it scrutinizes the impact of big data on decision-making processes, organizational restructuring, and broader transformative initiatives. Additionally, the study explores how strategies, organizational structures, and cultural norms associated with big data utilization contribute to reshaping the organizational landscape. At its core, this investigation seeks to unravel the transformative effects of big data on organizational evolution. A nuanced understanding of the intricate interplay between big data and organizational strategies, structures, and cultures is imperative for deciphering the mechanisms driving these transformations. The insights garnered from this inquiry are poised to inform both academic scholarship and practical endeavours, laying the groundwork for future research endeavours and strategic planning initiatives. Critical to this discourse is an appraisal of the potential benefits, risks, and sector-specific ramifications of big data analytics. Furthermore, a discerning analysis of the impact of big data adoption on organizational cultures promises invaluable insights for industry leaders. In summation, this study represents a significant scholarly endeavour aimed at deepening our comprehension of the implications of big data for organizational transformation, thereby shedding light on pertinent research avenues.

Büyük Veri Devrimi: Web of Science Odaklı Yönetim ve Kurumsal Gelişim Üzerine Kapsamlı Bir Bibliyometrik Çalışma

Abstract

Teknolojinin hızlı ilerleyişi, özellikle de farklı sektörlerde büyük verinin ortaya çıkmasıyla birlikte, verinin kilit rolünü vurgulamıştır. Bu kavram, araştırmacılar, uygulamacılar ve karar vericiler arasında önemli bir ilgi uyandırmıştır. Bu durum, büyük verinin organizasyonel dinamikler ve yönetimsel stratejiler üzerindeki etkilerini aydınlatmaya yönelik kararlı bir çaba başlatmıştır. Bu araştırma, 2011’den 2023’e kadar uzanan büyük veri literatürünün kapsamlı bir değerlendirmesini yaparak, büyük verinin yönetim paradigmaları ve organizasyonel davranışlar üzerindeki çok yönlü etkilerini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Özellikle, büyük verinin karar alma süreçleri, organizasyonel yeniden yapılanma ve daha geniş dönüşümsel girişimler üzerindeki etkilerini gözden geçirmektedir. Ayrıca, büyük veri kullanımıyla ilişkilendirilen stratejilerin, organizasyonel yapıların ve kültürel normların, organizasyonel peyzajı yeniden şekillendirmede nasıl katkı sağladığını keşfetmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu araştırmanın temelinde, büyük verinin örgütsel evrim üzerindeki dönüştürücü etkilerini çözümlemek yer almaktadır. Büyük veri ile örgütsel stratejiler, yapılar ve kültürler arasındaki karmaşık etkileşimin nüanslı bir şekilde anlaşılması, bu dönüşümleri yönlendiren mekanizmaları çözümlemek için hayati öneme sahiptir. Bu araştırmadan elde edilen içgörüler, akademik çalışmaları ve pratik uygulamaları bilgilendirerek, gelecekteki araştırma çabalarının ve stratejik planlama girişimlerinin temelini oluşturacaktır. Bu tartışma için kritik olan, büyük veri analitiğinin potansiyel faydaları, riskleri ve sektöre özgü sonuçlarıdır. Ayrıca, büyük veri kullanımının organizasyonel kültürler üzerindeki etkilerinin dikkatli bir şekilde analizi, endüstri liderleri için değerli içgörüler sunmaktadır. Sonuç olarak, bu çalışma, büyük verinin organizasyonel dönüşüm üzerindeki etkilerini derinleştirme amacı taşıyan önemli bir akademik girişimi temsil etmektedir.
