Mevcut çalışmada, dönüşümcü liderliğin çalışanların iş performansı ve örgütsel bağlılıkları üzerindeki etkilerini incelemek için lider-üye değişimi aracı, örgütsel adalet algısı ise düzenleyici olarak kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın katılımcıları Türk savunma sektörü şirketlerinin çalışanlarıdır. Tabakalı örnekleme tekniği kullanılarak 308 örneklem elde edilmiştir. Verileri toplamak için kişisel bilgi formu ve beş puanlık Likert tipi derecelendirmeleri içeren anket kullanılmıştır.
Bulgular, dönüşümcü liderliğin örgütsel bağlılığı ve çalışanların iş performansını Türk savunma sanayi firmalarında etkilediğini göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte, çalışanların çıktılarını artırmak için, işletmelerin dönüşümcü liderlik niteliklerini ve yapıcı lider-üye değişimini teşvik etmesinin ne kadar önemli olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Türk Savunma Sanayi şirketlerinin çalışanların sadakatini, örgütsel etkinliği, liderlik potansiyelini ve nihayetinde işletmenin başarısını teşvik edecek politikaları uygulamaya koymaları tavsiye edilmektedir.
Bu makalenin bulguları hem akademisyenler hem de saha uygulayıcıları için farklı şekillerde faydalıdır. İlk olarak, çalışma yeni bir model kullanarak literatüre katkıda bulunmaktadır. Modeli test etmek için uygulamalı analiz kullanılması bir diğer önemlilik arz eden husustur. Ek olarak, tezin bulguları liderlerin çalışanlara ve organizasyonel iklime yönelik tutum ve eylemlerinin çalışan davranışlarını nasıl etkileyebileceği konusunda ışık tutmakta ve bu da son zamanlarda kayda değer başarılar gösteren Türk savunma sektörü kuruluşları için daha iyi performansların nasıl elde edileceğine rehberlik etmektedir.

THE EFFECT OF TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP ON ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT AND JOB PERFORMANCE WITH THE MEDIATOR ROLE OF LEADER MEMBER EXCHANGE (LMX) AND THE MODERATOR ROLE OF ORGANIZATIONAL JUSTICE PERCEPTION: AN ANALYSIS IN TURKISH DEFENSE INDUSTRY COMPANIES

Öz

The current study used leader-member exchange as a mediator and organizational justice perception as a moderator to examine the effects of transformational leadership on employees’ job performance and organizational commitment. The participants in the research were employees of Turkish defense sector companies. By employing the stratified sampling technique, 308 samples were collected. The questionnaire that includes a personal information form and five-point Likert-type ratings was used to collect the data.
The findings demonstrate how organizational commitment and employee’s job performance are impacted by transformational leadership in Turkish defense industry firms. The results show how crucial it is for businesses to promote transformational leadership qualities and constructive leader-member exchange in order to enhance employee outcomes. It is advised that Turkish Defense Industry companies put the policies into place that will foster loyalty of employees, organizational effectiveness, leadership potential, and ultimately the success of the business.
This paper's findings are useful for both academics and field practitioners in different ways. First, the study contributes to the body of literature by employing a novel model. Using applied analysis to test the model is another crucial component. Additionally, the thesis's findings shed light on how managers' attitudes and actions toward staff members and organizational climate might affect employee behavior, resulting in better business performance for Turkish defense sector organizations that have recently demonstrated noteworthy achievements.
