Bir kamu görevlisi olarak öğretmenler ve okul
yöneticileri, yaşamlarını gençlerin eğitimine adamış ve gelecek nesilleri
yetiştiren kişilerdir. Toplumun dönüşümünde ve yeni nesiller için geleceğin
inşasında bizzat rol oynamaları nedenleriyle kamu hizmet ideallerini ve
motivasyonunu ne ölçüde benimsedikleri de önemli görünmektedir. Bu nedenle bu çalışmada kamu ilk ve ortaokullarında
görev yapan öğretmen ve okul yöneticilerinin kamu hizmeti motivasyonunu nasıl
anlamlandırdıklarının incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Nitel araştırma yöntemiyle
gerçekleştirilen çalışmada, veriler kamu okullarında en az beş yıl görev yapan
öğretmen ve yöneticilerle yapılan görüşmeler aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Verilerin
analizi NVivo 10 paket programı kullanılarak ve içerik analizi yöntemiyle
yapılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre öğretmen ve yöneticilerin “kamu görevi”
kavramından ne anladıkları, kamu hizmetinde çalışmayı neden seçtikleri, kamu
hizmetini yerine getirirken zorlandıkları hususlar ve kamu hizmeti
motivasyonlarını düşüren nedenler açıklanmıştır. Ayrıca öğretmen ve
yöneticilerin gözünden kamu hizmeti motivasyonlarını yükseltmek için sundukları
öneriler incelenmiştir.
