Organizations
increasingly understand that meeting their ambitions to seek optimal
productivity and flexibility in ambiguous situations do not only require new
technologies, but innovation on the organizational level. Recent studies in human resources
management focus around Islamic leadership and its impact on employees and
organizations in terms of work ethics, employee performance and satisfaction.
The paper addresses gap in Western European studies and aims to provide
conceptual clarity between Islamic leadership and workplace deviance. The scientific literature analysis and synthesis, chronology,
analogy and comparison were performed to analyze what are the interactions
between Islamic leadership and workplace deviance. Theoretical contributions
included Islamic leadership, organizational interventions and adoption of Islamic
spirituality through organizational values and religiosity perspective to
generate positive outcomes, enriched intrinsic motivation and increased
well-being of employees to fight back with workplace deviance. The findings are
vital for various organizations with the high degree of diversity to understand
the importance of spiritual leadership for the specific managerial implications
to cope with deviant behaviors like taking excessive breaks, intentionally
working slow, stealing or destroying office equipment, corruption, personal
aggression and others.

Anahtar Kelimeler

İSLAM LİDERLİĞİ VE İŞYERİNDEKİ ÖRGÜTSEL SAPMA: ETKİLEŞİMİ NEDİR?

Öz

Kuruluşlar, belirsiz durumlarda optimum üretkenlik ve
esneklik talep etme arzularını yerine getirmenin yalnızca yeni teknolojiler
üreterek değil aynı zamanda organizasyonel düzeyde yenilik yapılarak
gerçekleştireleceğini giderek daha fazla anlamaktadırlar. İnsan kaynakları
yönetimi konusundaki yakın tarihli çalışmalar, İslam liderliği ve iş etiği,
çalışanların performansı ve memnuniyet etkenlerinin çalışanlar ve
organizasyonlar üzerindeki etkisi üzerine odaklanmaktadır. Bu çalışma, Batı
Avrupa çalışmalarındaki boşluğu ele almakta ve İslami liderlik ile işyerindeki
örgütsel sapma arasında kavramsal netlik sağlamayı amaçlamaktadır. İslami
liderlik ve işyerindeki örgütsel sapma arasındaki etkileşimleri analiz etmek
için bilimsel literatür analizi ve sentezi, kronoloji çalışması, benzetme ve
karşılaştırma çalışmaları yapılmıştır. Kuramsal katkılar, İslami liderlik,
organizasyonel müdahaleler ve örgütsel değerler, dindarlık bakış açısı ile İslami
maneviyatın benimsenmesinin, olumlu sonuçların üretilmesinde, içsel
motivasyonun zenginleştirilmesini ve işyerindeki örgütsel sapma ile mücadele
edebilmek için çalışanların artan iyi hissetme halini içermektedir. Çalışmanın
bulguları, yüksek düzeyde faaliyet gösteren çeşitli organizasyonların, aşırı
molalar alma, bilinçli yavaş çalışma, ofis ekipmanlarını çalma ya da yok etme,
yolsuzluk, kişisel saldırganlık gibi işyerindeki sapkın davranışlara engel
olmada manevi liderliğin yüksek derecede önem taşıdığını göstermektedir.
