Especially in the last 50 years, the globalized business world has undergone radical changes and has taken shape unlike any before due to technological developments, and social and economic changes. All organizations must adapt to new circumstances by constantly changing and improving themselves. "High-performance organizations (HPO)" appear as "model organizations" that set examples that achieve those adaptations. Although it has not yet received the academic attention it should receive in Türkiye, YPO is a subject that has attracted a lot of attention among academics and administrators worldwide. However, since each organization is different and unique, and researchers and managers have different perspectives on performance and performance measurements, a standard definition and framework for HPOs has not been established. Therefore, we have discussed three framework studies with different approaches and revealed the general characteristics of HPOs in this study. This article shows that HPOs have superior features than their coequals in financial and non-financial data, particularly ethical values. While this study provides prominent guidance to managers on becoming and remaining an HPO, it has also significantly contributed to filling the gap in our country's literature on HPO.

Yüksek Performanslı Organizasyonların Özellikleri

Öz

Günümüzde küreselleşmiş iş dünyası, özellikle son 50 yıldaki teknolojik gelişmeler, sosyal ve ekonomik değişim ve dönüşümler nedeniyle köklü değişimlere uğramış, daha önceki dönemlere hiç benzemeyen bir şekle bürünmüştür. Kâr amaçlı olsun olmasın bütün organizasyonlar, önceki dönemlere göre daha sık ve daha hızlı değişen şartlar karşısında sürekli şekilde kendilerini değiştirerek ve geliştirerek yeni durumlara adapte olmak zorundadırlar. “Yüksek performanslı organizasyonlar (YPO)” bunu başaran örgütler olarak örnek teşkil eden “model organizasyonlar” olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Henüz Türkiye’de görmesi gereken yeterli akademik ilgiyi görememiş olsa da YPO dünyada akademisyenler ve yöneticiler arasında oldukça ilgi çekmiş bir konudur. Ancak her organizasyonun diğerlerinden farklı ve özgün olması, araştırmacıların ve yöneticilerin performans ve performans ölçümlerindeki bakış açılarının farklı olması nedeniyle bu konuda ortak bir tanım ve çerçeve çalışma oluşturulamamıştır. Çalışmamızda farklı yaklaşımlara sahip üç çerçeve çalışma ele alınarak YPO’ların genel özellikleri ortaya konmuştur. YPO’ların sadece finansal verilerde değil, etik değerler başta olmak üzere finansal olmayan verilerde de benzerlerinden üstün özellikler gösterdiği ortaya konmuştur. Çalışmamız YPO olmak ve YPO kalmak için yöneticilere önemli kılavuz bilgiler verirken, aynı zamanda YPO konusunda ülkemiz literatüründeki boşluğun doldurulmasına önemli katkı sağlamıştır.
