KUŞAKLARIN FARKLILAŞAN İŞ DEĞERLERİNE İLİŞKİN EMİK BİR ARAŞTIRMA

Öz

Kuşaklar arasındaki farklılıklar yüzyıllardır ilgi çeken bir konu olmakla birlikte, işletmecilik alanında bilimsel araştırmalara konu olması henüz yenidir. İş dünyası 2000’li yıllarda çok sayıda rapor ve akademi dışından yayınla kuşak farklılıklarını tartışmaya başlamış ancak yönetim ve insan kaynakları yazınında araştırmalar özellikle son beş yıldır ivme kazanmıştır. Türk iş dünyası ve akademik yazın açısından da seyir benzer şekildedir. Kuşak olgusunun sosyoloji disiplini temelindeki tanımı, ulusal bir alt kültür olarak incelenmesi düşüncesini de beraberinde getirmektedir. Bu çalışma emik yaklaşım benimsenerek Türkiye’de çalışma yaşamında kuşakların iş görme anlayışı ve iş değerleri arasındaki farklılıkları sorgulamak ve kuşakların bir arada yönetimine ilişkin geliştirilecek strateji önerilerine yol gösterici olmak üzere tasarlanmıştır
