Abstract

KOBİ’leri dördüncü sanayi devrimi bağlamında nasıl bir gelecek beklediği konusuna odaklanan yönetim yazınının incelendiği bu çalışmada iki temel tespit yapılmaktadır. Birinci; yönetim araştırmacılarının Endüstri 4.0 teknolojilerinin entegre edilmesi durumunda örgütlerin bilgi aktarımı ve örgütsel bellekte bilgi depolanmasının nasıl etkileneceği konusunu büyük ölçüde ihmal ettiği yönünde bir tespittir. Bir yandan her şeyin internetinden bahsedip, her şeyin dijital bir veriye dönüşeceği üzerine çıkarımlar yapılırken, öte yandan bu sürecin nasıl örgütsel değişimler getirebileceği ya da nasıl sonuçları olacağı üzerine somut öneriler yeterli seviyede görülmemiştir. İkinci tespit ise; dördüncü sanayi devriminin getirdiği ve getirecekleri konusunda bilgi üretecek yönetim araştırmalarının geleneksel yöntemlerden ileri gidemediği yönündedir. Yeni teknolojilerin örgütlere adapte edilmesini modelleyecek, sonuçlarını öngörecek yöntem ve tekniklerin örgüt araştırmacıları tarafından benimsenmemiş olduğu görülmüştür. Bu tespitler doğrultusunda yönetim araştırmacılarının teknoloji odaklı bir sanayi devriminin örgütlerde yaratacağı değişimi anlayabilmesi için çalışma disiplinlerini kademeli olarak dijital dönüşüme uyumlandırmasına yönelik önerilerde bulunulmuştur.

Fourth Industrial Revolution and Digital Transformation of SMEs

Abstract

In this study, two main determinations in the management literature have been made, which focus on the future of SMEs in the concept of the fourth industrial revolution. The first finding is, that management researchers largely neglect the issue of how information transfer and information storage in organizational memory will be affected if Industry 4.0 technologies are adopted. On the one hand, talking about the internet of everything and making inferences that everything will turn into digital data, yet; on the other hand, it is seen that, the level of concrete suggestions on changes in organizations due to digital transformation or the result of this process is inadequate. The second finding is management research cannot go further than traditional methods, which will produce information about the fourth industrial revolution and its future returns, It has been observed that the methods and techniques that will model the adaptation of new technologies to the organizations and prediction of the results have not been adopted by organization researchers. In line with these findings, suggestions have been made for management researchers to gradually adapt their work disciplines to digital transformation; to understand the organizational change a technology-oriented industrial revolution will create.
