Aile İşletmelerinin Profesyonelleşme Düzeylerine Yönelik Bir Araştırma: Kütahya Örneği

Araştırmanın amacı aile işletmelerin profesyonelleşme (finans, kurumsallaşma, insan kaynakları kontrol sistemi, yetki devri ve genel) düzeylerine göre kümelere ayrılarak bu kümelerin oluşmasına etki eden faktörlerin belirlenmesidir. Araştırma örneklemi olarak Kütahya Ticaret Odasına üye aile işletmeleri belirlenmiştir. Araştırmaya 1056 aile işletmesi dahil edilmiştir. Aile işletmelerinin profesyonelleşme düzeyleri kümeleme analizi ve çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizi ile incelenmiştir. Aile işletmelerinin profesyonelleşme düzeyleri açısından kümeleme analizi ile iki kümeye ayrıldığı, profesyonelleşme (finans, kurumsallaşma, insan kaynakları kontrol sistemi, yetki devri ve genel) üzerinde aile işletmesinin yaşının, faaliyette bulunduğu sektörün, yönetiminin kuşağı, aile üyesi olmayan yönetici sayısının, personel sayısının ve hukuki durumunun farklı düzeylerde etkisi olduğu bulgulanmıştır.

A Study on Professionalization Levels of Family Businesses: The Case of Kutahya

The research aims to determine the factors affecting the formation of these clusters by dividing family businesses into clusters according to their professionalization (finance, institutionalization, human resources control system, delegation of authority, and general) levels. Family businesses that are members of the Kütahya Chamber of Commerce were determined as the research sample. 1056 family businesses were included in the study. Professionalization levels of family businesses were examined by cluster analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. A cluster analysis revealed that family businesses can be divided into two clusters based on their levels of professionalization, with age of the family business, industry sector, generation of management, number of non-family executives, number of employees, and legal status having varying effects on professionalization (financial, institutionalization, human resources control system, delegation of authority, and overall).
