The studies that focused on the behaviors of the employees and their impacts on organizational life have been evolved over time by the context of the environment since the beginning of the 20th century. It is thought that in order to gain an insight into what the organizational behavior discipline will focus on in the future, forecasting the progress in related issues might be useful for future predictions.

The purpose of this study which was conducted in a sample of postgraduate students (n=91) who took organizational behavior lectures at the institute of social sciences of a university, was to determine on which issues will be the organizational behavior discipline focused on in the future. The results reflected that the organizational behavior discipline will be focused mostly on ‘virtual organizations’ theme in the future.

Örgütsel Davranışta Yeni Ufuklar: Yüksek Lisans Öğrencileri Bağlamında Bir Çalışma

Öz

20. yüzyılın başlarından itibaren iş örgütlerinde çalışan iş görenlerin davranışlarını ve bunların sonuçlarını odağa alan çalışmalar, içinde bulunulan bağlamın etkileriyle zaman içinde evrilmiştir. Örgütsel davranış disiplininin gelecekte odaklanacağı konuların neler olabileceğine yönelik bir öngörü kazanmak için, ilişkili konuları ele alarak gidişatlarını değerlendirmenin, geleceğe yönelik tahminlerde bulunmada faydalı olacağı düşünülmektedir.

Bir üniversitenin sosyal bilimler enstitüsünde eğitim gören ve örgütsel davranış dersi almış yüksek lisans öğrencileri (n=91) üzerinde yürütülen bu çalışmanın amacı, örgütsel davranış disiplininin gelecekte hangi konulara odaklanacağını ortaya koymaktır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, öğrencilerin örgütsel davranış disiplininin gelecekte en çok ‘sanal örgüt’ (n=68) temasına odaklanacağını düşündüklerini ortaya koymuştur.
