Bu araştırmanın amacı banka çalışanlarının yapay zekâ genel tutumları ile dönüştürücü liderlik tarzı arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Çalışmada Erzurum ilinde kamu ve özel bankalarda çalışan ve yapay zekâyı aktif kullanan 295 kişinin katıldığı anket verileri analiz edilmiştir. Veriler, tanımlayıcı istatistikler, t-testleri, ANOVA, korelasyon, regresyon, açımlayıcı faktör analizi ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizleri ile değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular, dönüştürücü liderlik ile yapay zekâya yönelik pozitif tutum arasında anlamlı ve pozitif bir ilişki bulunduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Bunun yanı sıra, dönüştürücü liderlik tarzının yapay zekâya yönelik negatif tutum üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisi olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Bu çalışma, bankacılık sektöründeki liderlerin, dönüştürücü liderlik tarzını benimseyerek, teknolojik değişimlere uyum sağlama konusunda nasıl daha etkili olabileceklerini göstermeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu açıdan, çalışmanın sektöre özgü bir bakış açısı ve politika yapıcılarına tavsiye niteliğinde önemli öneriler sunduğu ve mevcut literatüre önemli bir katkı sağladığı söylenebilir.

Artificial Intelligence and Leadership: The Effect of Transformational Leadership Style on Employee Attitudes

Öz

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the general attitudes of bank employees towards artificial intelligence and the transformational leadership style. In the study, the survey data of 295 people working in public and private banks in Erzurum province and actively using artificial intelligence were analyzed. The data were evaluated with descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, correlation, regression, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The findings showed that the transformational leadership style strengthened the positive attitude towards artificial intelligence and was not related to the negative attitude towards artificial intelligence. This study aims to show how leaders in the banking sector can be more effective in adapting to technological changes by adopting the transformational leadership style. In this respect, it can be said that the study offers a sector-specific perspective and important suggestions as recommendations for policy makers and makes a significant contribution to the existing literature.
