Kâr amacı gütmeyen kuruluşların iş birliği ile performans arasındaki ilişkiye dair tutarsız bulgular karmaşıktır ve temel faktörlere bağlıdır. Ancak, kâr amacı gütmeyen kuruluşların iş birliğinin performans açısından hangi koşullar altında önemli olduğuna dair mevcut anlayışımız sınırlıdır. Bu soruyu ele almak için yeni bir bağlamı ele alıyor ve gelişmekte olan kâr amacı gütmeyen iş birliği alan yazınından birleşik alan yazına dayanıyoruz. Bu çalışma, iş birliğinin (eşzamanlı iş birliği ve rekabet) savaştan zarar görmüş bir bölgedeki kâr amacı gütmeyen kuruluşların örgütsel performansı üzerindeki etkisini kavramsallaştırmakta ve test etmektedir. Özellikle, kâr amacı gütmeyen kuruluşların sosyal ve finansal performansı üzerindeki eş zamanlı iş birliği ve rekabeti, dışarıdan bilgi ve yenilikçi iklim kullanımı yoluyla araştırmaktadır. Irak'ın Bağdat ilinde 158 yönetici ve yönetim kurulu üyesi ile yüz yüze bir anket gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ankette değişkenleri ölçmek için güvenilir ve geçerli ölçekler kullanılmıştır. Aracılık modelini test etmek için yapısal eşitlik modellemesi uygulanmıştır. Önerilen sıralı aracılık modeli, dört hipotezin tümü istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olacak şekilde iyi bir model uyumuna sahiptir. Kâr amacı gütmeyen kuruluşların birlikte rekabete girmesi, aracılar vasıtasıyla kuruluş performansını olumlu yönde etkilemektedir: dış bilgi kullanımı ve yenilikçi iklim. Rakiplerle iş birliği, kar amacı gütmeyen kuruluşların kurumsal düzeyde yenilikçi bir iklim oluşturan dış bilgiyi etkin bir şekilde kullanmalarına yardımcı olmaktadır. Ayrıca, dış bilginin kullanımı performans üzerinde doğrudan bir etkiye sahiptir. Kâr amacı gütmeyen kuruluşlar, özellikle çalkantılı veya savaştan zarar görmüş bölgelerde sürdürülebilir finansal ve sosyal performans fırsatları yaratmak için dış ve iç bilgiyi entegre etmelidir. Ayrıca, kâr amacı gütmeyen liderlerin kendilerini tanımlamaları ve örgütler arası ilişkiler aramaları için bağlam zorunludur. Çalışma ayrıca kâr amacı gütmeyen liderlerin yenilik yapmalarına ve kurumsal performansı artırmalarına yardımcı olacak teorik ve pratik çıkarımlar da sunmaktadır.

Coopetition and Non-Profit Performance in War-Torn Region: Role of Outside Knowledge and Innovative Climate

Öz

The inconsistent findings on the association between non-profit coopetition and performance are complicated and contingent on essential factors. However, our current understanding of the circumstances under which non-profit coopetition matters to performance is limited. We take a novel context to address this question and build on the combined literature from the emerging non-profit coopetition literature. This study conceptualises and tests the impact of coopetition (simultaneous cooperation and competition) on the organisational performance of non-profit organisations in a war-torn region. Notably, it investigates the simultaneous cooperation and competition in non-profits' social and financial performance via outside knowledge and innovative climate. An in-person survey with 158 executives and board members was conducted in Baghdad Governorate, Iraq. The survey adopted reliable and valid scales to measure the variables. Structural equation modelling was applied to test the mediation model. The proposed sequential mediating model has a good model fit with all four hypotheses statistically significant. Non-profit engagement in coopetition positively affects organisation performance via mediators: use of outside knowledge and innovative climate. Cooperation with competitors helps non-profits to effectively use the outside knowledge that forms an innovative climate at the organisational level. Additionally, the use of outside knowledge has a direct effect on performance. Non-profits should integrate outside and internal knowledge to generate sustainable financial and social performance opportunities, especially in turbulent or war-torn regions. Moreover, context is imperative for non-profit leaders to identify themselves and seek inter-organisational relationships. The study also provides theoretical and practical implications that help non-profit leaders innovate and increase organisational performance.
