YAPISAL ORGANİKLİK İLE ÖRGÜTSEL SİNDİRİCİ KAPASİTE ARASINDAKİ İLİŞKİ: KOBİLER ÜZERİNDE KEŞFEDİCİ BİR ÇALIŞMA

Bu çalışmanın amacı örgütsel sindirici kapasite ile yapısal organiklik arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Sindirici kapasite; bir örgütün dış çevrede üretilen değerli bilgiyi fark etme, tanımlama, elde etme, örgüt içinde dağıtma, dönüştürme ve bu bilgiden yararlanma yeteneğini ifade eder. Örgüt yapısı ise genelde mekanikten organiğe uzanan bir yelpaze üzerinde değerlendirilmekte olup, yapısal organiklik organik yapıya uygunluk derecesini gösterir. Belirtilen kavramsallaştırmalara dayanarak Erzurum il merkezinde faaliyette bulunan 79 küçük ve orta büyüklükte işletmede (KOBİ’de) anket çalışması yürütülmüştür. Verilerin analizi sonucunda örneklemdeki KOBİ’lerin büyük ölçüde mekanik yapıya sahip olduğu bulunmuştur. Ayrıca potansiyel ve gerçekleşen sindirici kapasitenin birbirinden bağımsız olduğu gözlenmiştir. Organik yapı ile potansiyel sindirici kapasitenin ‘güven ve saygı’ boyutu arasında zayıf ve olumsuz bir ilişki bulunmuştur. Organik yapının gerçekleşen sindirici kapasite ile de olumsuz yönde ilişkili olduğu gözlenmiştir. Son olarak, 1 ila 10 çalışana sahip mikro firmaların gerçekleşen sindirici kapasitesinin diğer firmalardan daha düşük olduğu görülmüştür.
