Büyük Ölçekli Firmaların Sürdürülebilir İnovasyon Performansı ve İş Sürekliliği Planlamasının Kurumsal Sürdürülebilirlik Üzerindeki Etkisi

Öz

Bu çalışmada, büyük ölçekli yerel ve uluslararası firmalarda sürdürülebilir inovasyon performansı ve iş sürekliliği planlamasının kurumsal sürdürülebilirlik üzerindeki etkisinin hem örgütsel hem de bireysel demografik faktörler ışığında açıklanması amaçlanmaktadır. Araştırmada 12 uluslararası ve 13 yerel büyük ölçekli kurumsal şirkette çalışan 311 çalışandan toplanan veriler üzerinde analizler yapılmıştır. Hipotezler, literatürde kabul görmüş olan çoklu ölçekler kullanılarak test edilmiştir. Bu değişkenler arasındaki ilişkileri ve/veya etkilerini belirlemek için korelasyon, regresyon analizi, t-testi ve ANOVA analizi yöntemleri uygulanmıştır. Bulgular, sürdürülebilir inovasyon performansı, iş sürekliliği planlaması ve sürdürülebilir inovasyon performansı/iş sürekliliği planlaması moderatör değişkeninin kurumsal sürdürülebilirliğin kurulmasını ve korunmasını olumlu yönde etkilediğini ortaya koymaktadır. Ayrıca, organizasyon içinde mevzuat uyum departmanına sahip olmak, daha uzun yıllara dayanan iş tecrübesi, daha fazla personel sayısı ve yüksek eğitim seviyesi kurumsal sürdürülebilirliği kritik olarak güçlendirmektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler

• kurumsal sürdürülebilirlik
