THE ROLE OF SELF-EFFICACY IN THE EFFECT OF MENTORING ON INTRAPRENEURSHIP

Öz

Today, the culture of intrapreneurship that affects the strategic superiority of enterprises is encouraged. However, the importance of integrating employees equipped with intrapreneurship qualifications supported through mentoring is emphasized. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to display the contributions of mentoring in the development of the crown prince's intrapreneurship behaviors in family businesses and to determine whether self-efficacy perception mediated in this relationship. In this study, family businesses in Ankara were determined as the population of the study. Data were collected from 273 crown princes who accepted to answer the questions by easy sampling technique which is one of the non-probability samplings. As a result of the analyzes, there were found that the career function factor of the mentorship had a positive effect on the other 5 factors except for innovation factor of intrapreneurship; psycho-social support function factor had a positive effect on proactiveness or risk-taking factors of intrapreneurship except for the others. However, it was not found in the relationship between mentoring factors and intrapreneurship factors, the mediating effect of self-efficacy. As a result, it was seen that mentoring was effective in increasing intrapreneurship behaviors of crown princes independent from self-efficacy perception.

İÇ GİRİŞİMCİLİK ÜZERİNDEKİ MENTORLUĞUN ETKİSİNDE ÖZ YETERLİLİĞİN ROLÜ

Öz

Günümüzde, işletmelerin stratejik üstünlüklerini etkileyen iç girişimcilik kültürü teşvik edilmektedir. Bununla birlikte, mentorluğun katkılarıyla desteklenen girişimcilik yeterlilikleriyle donatılmış çalışanların işletmelere istihdam edilmesinin önemi vurgulanmaktadır. Bu nedenle, aile işletmelerindeki veliahtların iç girişimcilik davranışlarının geliştirilmesinde mentorluğun katkılarının ortaya çıkarılması ve öz yeterlilik algısının bu ilişkide aracılık rolünün olup olmadığının araştırılması çalışmanın amacı olarak belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada, Ankara ilinde bulunan aile işletmeleri araştırmanın evreni olarak belirlenmiştir. Verilerin toplanmasında “olasılığa dayalı olmayan örnekleme” tekniklerinden olan “kolayda örnekleme” tekniğiyle ulaşılan ve sorulara cevap vermeyi kabul eden 273 veliahttan elde edilen veriler kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analizler neticesinde, Mentorluğun kariyer işlevi boyutunun iç girişimcilik boyutlarından “yenilikçilik” boyutu hariç diğer 5 boyut üzerinde pozitif etkisi olduğu; psiko-sosyal destek işlevi boyutunun iç girişimcilik boyutlarından proaktiflik ve risk alma boyutları üzerinde pozitif etkisi olduğu görülmüştür. Mentorluk boyutlarıyla iç girişimcilik boyutları arasındaki ilişkide ise öz yeterliliğin aracılık etkisinin olmadığı görülmüştür. Sonuç olarak, mentorluğun veliahtların yetiştirilmesi ve iç girişimcilik davranışlarının artırılmasında öz yeterlilik algısından bağımsız olarak etkili olduğu görülmüştür.
