relationship between employee empowerment and employee innovative behavior.
According to literature review, there is a dearth of studies investigating
employee empowerment, employee loyalty and its effect on employee innovative
behavior. Thus, this study will fill in the gap in the literature. There are
two reasons why Teknopark Istanbul is selected for the research. First,
Technopark is a new sector in Turkey, and there is a scarce of studies related
to the firms operating within technoparks. Second, the firms operating in
technoparks have mainly entrepreneurial, technological and innovative nature.
In this study, data were collected from 219 employees in technology firms
within Teknopark Istanbul, Turkey. The findings of this study indicate that
employee loyalty has a mediating role on the relationship between employee
empowerment and employee innovative behavior. </font> </span> </p> <p> <b> </b> <i> </i> <u> </u> <sub> </sub> <sup> </sup> <strike> </strike> <font size="3"> </font> <font face="Times New Roman"> </font> <br /> </p>}, number={1}, publisher={Çankırı Karatekin Üniversitesi}
