Yeşil Entelektüel Sermaye Ölçeğinin Türkçe’ye Uyarlanması ve Türk İmalat İşletmelerinin Yeşil Entelektüel Sermaye Olgunluk Düzeylerinin Belirlenmesi

Abstract

Alan yazında son derece yeni bir kavram olan yeşil entelektüel sermaye ile ilgili farklı kültürlerde yapılacak araştırmalara ihtiyaç bulunmaktadır. Bu ihtiyacın yanı sıra yeşil entelektüel sermaye konusu ile ilgili yerli alan yazında yapılmış teorik veya ampirik hiçbir araştırma tespit edilememiştir. Bu bağlamda Türk iş örgütlerinin yeşil entelektüel sermaye olgunluk düzeylerini ölçen bir araştırmaya rastlanmamış ve yerli alan yazında Türk iş örgütleri için kullanılabilecek bir ölçüm aracı bulunmamaktadır. Bu araştırmanın amacı, Chen (2008) tarafından geliştirilen ve Huang ve Kung (2011) tarafından revize edilen yeşil entelektüel sermaye ölçeğini Türkçe’ye uyarlamak ve Türk imalat işletmelerinin yeşil entelektüel sermaye olgunluk düzeylerini belirlemektir. Araştırmanın ilk aşaması olan ölçek uyarlama aşaması kolayda örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak Konya ilinde farklı sektörlerdeki 452 imalat işletmesi yöneticisinden oluşan bir çalışma grubundan elde edilen veriler ile ikinci aşaması olan YES olgunluk düzeylerinin belirlenmesi aşaması ise kolayda örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak Türkiye’nin farklı illerinde faaliyet gösteren 545 imalat işletmesi yöneticisinden oluşan bir örneklem üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın ilk aşaması kapsamında, Türk iş örgütleri için geçerli ve güvenilir bir yeşil entelektüel sermaye ölçeği elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen ölçek, 3 boyut ve 18 maddeden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmanın ikinci aşaması kapsamında elde edilen bulgular, Türk imalat işletmelerinin %75.6 oranında yeşil insan sermayesi, %67.5 oranında yeşil yapısal sermaye ve %72.5 oranında yeşil ilişkisel sermaye, genel olarak %71.8 oranında yeşil entelektüel sermaye düzeyine sahip olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Buna göre Türk imalat işletmelerinin 4. seviyede yeşil insan sermayesi, yeşil yapısal sermaye ve yeşil ilişkisel sermaye olgunluğuna, genel olarak yine 4. seviyede yeşil entelektüel sermaye olgunluğuna sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Adapting the Green Intellectual Capital Scale to Turkish and Determining the Green Intellectual Capital Maturity Levels of Turkish Manufacturing Enterprises

Abstract

There is a need for research in different cultures on green intellectual capital, which is an extremely new concept in the literature. In addition to this need, no theoretical or empirical research has been identified in the domestic literature on green intellectual capital. In this context, no research has been found that measures the green intellectual capital maturity levels of Turkish business organizations and there is no measurement tool that can be used for Turkish business organizations in the domestic literature. The aim of this research is to adapt the green intellectual capital scale developed by Chen (2008) and revised by Huang and Kung (2011) into Turkish and to determine the green intellectual capital maturity levels of Turkish manufacturing enterprises. The first stage of the research, the scale adaptation stage, by using the convenience sampling method, the data obtained from a working group consisting of 452 manufacturing business managers from different sectors in Konya, and the second stage, the determination of GIC maturity levels, by using convenience sampling method, it was conducted on a sample of 545 manufacturing business managers operating in different provinces of Türkiye. Within the scope of the first phase of the research, a valid and reliable GIC scale for Turkish business organizations was obtained. The scale consists of 3 dimensions and 18 items. The findings obtained within the scope of the second phase of the research reveal that Turkish manufacturing enterprises have 75.6% green human capital, 67.5% green structural capital and 72.5% green relational capital, and overall 71.8% green intellectual capital. Accordingly, it has been determined that Turkish manufacturing enterprises have green human capital, green structural capital and green relational capital maturity at the 4th level, and green intellectual capital maturity at the 4th level in general.
