Araştırmanın amacı, insan sermayesinin inovasyon yeteneğine etkisinde dinamik yeteneklerin aracılık rolünün incelenmesidir. Araştırma, İstanbul merkezli bir lojistik firmasındaki beyaz yakalı çalışanlarla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Örneklemin belirlenmesinde basit tesadüfi örnekleme tekniği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemi en az üç yıldır aynı firmada çalışan 238 çalışandır. Verilerin analizinde aracılık modelleri kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizi sonucunda insan sermayesinin firmanın dinamik yetenekleri ve inovasyon yeteneğini önemli düzeyde arttırdığı tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca firmanın dinamik yetenekleri, insan sermayesinin inovasyon yeteneğinin oluşmasında aracılık rolüne sahiptir. Araştırma kapsamında oluşturulan hipotezler desteklenmiştir. İnsan sermayesi firmaların dinamik yetenekleri, firmanın dinamik yeteneklerinin oluşmasında, sonrasında inovasyon yeteneklerinin elde edilmesinde etkilidir. Araştırma, lojistik sektöründe insan sermayesini, inovasyon yeteneği ve dinamik yetenekleri ilişkilendirerek alanyazına katkı sunmaktadır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

İnsan sermayesi, dinamik yetenekler, inovasyon yeteneği, lojistik sektörü.

LINKING HUMAN CAPITAL TO INNOVATION CAPABILITY: A DYNAMIC CAPABILITIES PERSPECTIVE

Öz

The research examines the mediating role of dynamic capabilities in the effect of human capital on innovation capability. The research was conducted with white-collar employees in a logistics company based in Istanbul. A simple random sampling technique was used to determine the sample. The research sample is 238 employees working in the same company for at least three years. Mediation models were used to analyse the data. The data analysis determined that employee capital significantly increases the company's dynamic and innovation capabilities. In addition, the company's dynamic capabilities mediate in forming the innovation capability of employee capital. The hypotheses created within the scope of the research were supported. Human capital companies' dynamic capabilities effectively form the company's dynamic capabilities and subsequently obtain innovation capabilities. The research contributes to the literature by associating employee capital, innovation capability, and dynamic capabilities in the logistics sector.
