Management Style and Collectivism at Turkish SMEs: An Exploratory Study

Öz

Türkiye, sayısı hızla artan küçük ve orta ölçekli işletmelerin (KOBİ) ekonominin itici gücü olarak görev yaptığı ülkelerden biridir. Bu çalışmada, yazarlar Türkiye’deki KOBİ’lerin yönetim tarzlarını ve kollektivist davranışlarını araştırmışlardır. Türkiye gibi Batı ve Doğu kültürlerinin kesişim noktasında yer alan ve son yıllarda pazarların liberalleştiği ülkelerde, araştırmanın ilginç bulgulara ulaşabileceği düşünülmüştür. Yönetim tarzı ve kollektivizm arasındaki ilişkiler araştırmanın odak noktasını oluşturmuştur. Araştırma kapsamında, 421 KOBİ’ye, 13 sorudan oluşan anket uygulaması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yönetim tarzı ve kollektivizm arasında bazı anlamlı sonuçlara ulaşılmıştır. Özetle, Türk KOBİ’lerinde işgörenlerin gruplar halinde çalışmayı tercih ettiği, işletmeler büyüdükçe biçimsel örgüt yapılarının ve yönetim politikalarının tercih edildiği söylenebilir.
