İŞ MODELİ VE TEDARİK ZİNCİRİ YENİLİKÇİLİĞİ İLE SÜRDÜRÜLEBİLİRLİK: TÜRKİYE’DE KAPSAYICI İŞ MODELLERİ ÜZERİNE KEŞFEDİCİ BİR ARAŞTIRMA
Giderek daha fazla ilgi çeken bir kavram olan kapsayıcı işletmeler, ekonomik piramidin en alt katmanında yer alan bireylerin, şirketin ana iş kolunun değer zincirinde görev alması yoluyla, onlara ölçeklenebilir bir şekilde mal, hizmet veya geçim kaynağı sağlamayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu çalışma, özel sektörün kapsayıcı işlere katılım düzeyini, bu modelleri uygulayan şirketlerin tedarik zincirlerinde ortaya konan değişiklikleri ve kapsayıcılık ile iş modeli inovasyonu arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır.Anket araştırmasının sonuçlarına göre, özellikle düşük gelirli üreticilerin tedarik zincirine dahil edilmesi açısından, Türk şirketleri arasında kapsayıcı faaliyetler konusunda halen ilgi ve/veya farkındalık eksikliği söz konusudur. Öte yandan, araştırma aynı zamanda tedarik zinciri yenilikçiliği ile kapsayıcılık ve şirketin kapsayıcı bir işe girme konusundaki gelecek niyetleri arasında güçlü bir ilişki olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu bulgular göz önüne alındığında bu çalışma, şirketlerin ürün ve hizmet yenilikçiliğinin yanı sıra iş modelli yenilikçiliği becerilerini de geliştirmelerinin kapsayıcı iş modellerini benimseme düzeylerini artırma potansiyeline sahip olduğunu öne sürmektedir.
SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH BUSINESS MODEL AND SUPPLY CHAIN INNOVATION: AN EXPLORATORY STUDY ON INCLUSIVE BUSINESS MODELS IN TURKEY
Inclusive business, which is a concept that is attracting increasing attention, aims to providegoods, services or livelihoods in a scalable way by enabling people living at the bottom of theeconomic pyramid to take part in the value chain of the company's core business. This studyaims to investigate private sector’s level of engagement in inclusive business, the changes putforward in the supply chains of the companies which implemented these models and therelationship between inclusiveness and business model innovation. According to the results ofthe survey research, there is still a lack of interest and/or awareness regarding inclusive businessamong Turkish companies, particularly in terms of including the low income producers in thesupply chain as suppliers. On the other hand, the research also shows that there is a strongrelationship between supply chain innovativeness and inclusiveness, as well as company’sfuture intentions to engage in inclusive business. Considering these findings, this study arguesthat developing the innovativeness capabilities of companies not only in terms of their productsand services, but also their business models has the potential to increase companies’ adoptionof inclusive business.
