level. Narcissistic personalit traits, which are seen as one of the important
source of conflict in social relations, can be effective in organizational
context. Past research findings about organizational effects of narcissistic
personality traits include different results that positive and negative sides
of narcissism come forward. The aim of this study is to determine the effects
of narcissism oon job satisfaction and individual work performance. For this
purpose, the study was designed to reveal relationships among narcissism, job
satisfaction and individual performance. In this study, 311 employees who work
in textile sector in Tokat province have been surveyed and frequency, t-tes,
ANOVA, correlation and regression methods were used. According to the research
findings, a positive relatilonship was found between narcissism and job
satisfaction and individual performance. As the narcissistic personality level
of employees increases, it is possible to say that job satisfaction and
individual performance increase in employees. Another result of the study is
that there are some differences in the level of narcissistic personality
according to the demographic characteristics of the employees.

Abstract

Narsizmle ilgili son yıllarda gerçekleştirilen
çalışmalar narsizmin örgütsel düzeyde daha fazla araştırılması gereken bir konu
olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Toplumsal ilişkilerde önemli çatışma kaynaklarından
biri olarak görülen narsistik kişilik özellikleri, örgütsel bağlamda da etkili
olabilmektedir. Geçmiş araştırma bulguları narsistik kişilik özelliklerinin
örgütsel etkileri konusunda narsizmin olumlu veya olumsuz yönlerinin öne
çıktığı farklı sonuçlar içermektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, narsizmin iş doyumu
ve bireysel iş perormansı üzerindeki etkilerini belirlemektir. Bu amaçla
çalışma narsizm ile iş doyumu ve bireysel performans arasındaki ilişkileri
ortaya koyacak şekilde tasarlanmıştır. Tokat ilinde tekstil sektöründe görev
yapmakta olan 311 çalışana anket uygulanarak gerçekleştirilen araştırma
verilerinin analizinde frekans, t-testi, ANOVA, korelasyon ve regresyon
yöntemlerinden faydalanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularına göre narsizm ile iş
doyumu ve bireysel performans arasında pozitif yönlü bir ilişki tespit
edilmiştir. Çalışanların narsistik kişilik düzeyi arttıkça çalışanlarda iş
doyumunun ve bireysel performansın arttığını bu çalışma sonuçları için söylemek
mümkündür. Çalışmada elde edilen diğer bir sonuç, çalışanların demografik
özelliklerine göre narsistik kişilik düzeylerinde bazı farklılıkların
olmasıdır.
