ÖĞRENEN ÖRGÜT BOYUTLARI ANKETİ (ÖÖBA) ÖLÇEĞİ İLE SEKTÖREL VE BÖLGESEL BİR KIYASLAMA ÇALIŞMASI

Kıyaslama (Benchmarking) çalışmalarının amacı, ilgili sektör profesyonellerinin organizasyonlarının ilgili birimlerinin performansındaki boşlukları tespit etmelerini sağlamaktır. Böylece, rekabet avantajı elde etmeleri için daha objektif bir bakış açısı sağlayabilirler. Bu çalışmanın amacı, kuruluşların öğrenen örgüt olma performansını sektörel ve bölgesel olarak değerlendirmek için Watkins & Marsick (1993) tarafından geliştirilen Öğrenen Örgüt Boyutları Anketi (ÖÖBA) (Dimensions of Learning Organization Questionnaire:DLOQ) ölçümlerini ele alarak kıyaslama değerleri oluşturmaktır. Bu bağlamda, son on yılda, “DLOQ” anahtar kelimesine sahip akademik makaleler taranmış, toplam karşılaştırma puanını hesaplamak için 40 makale kullanılmıştır. Sonuç olarak sektörel ve bölgesel bazda kıyaslama rakamları elde edilerek örnek bir uygulama üzerinde bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Elde edilen kıyaslama değerlerine bakıldığında Avrupa ve Asya’daki kurumlar en iyiler iken, Orta Doğu’dakiler en kötü performansı göstermektedir. Diğer taraftan Elektronik ve BT sektörü açık ara en başarılı sektör olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır.

A SECTORAL AND REGIONAL BENCHMARKING STUDY WITH THE DIMENSIONS OF LEARNING ORGANIZATION QUESTIONNAIRE (DLOQ) SCALE MEASUREMENTS

The aim of benchmarking studies is to enable the relevant sector professionals to identify gaps in the performance of the organization. Thus, they can provide a more objective perspective for them to gain a competitive advantage. The aim of this study is to collect the criterion values of the Dimensions of the Learning Organization Questionnaire (DLOQ) in terms of being a learning organization for the model of Watkins & Marsick (1993) which was created to measure the performance of organizations. In this context, in the last decade, academic articles with the keyword “DLOQ” were scanned. Finally, 40 articles were used to calculate the total comparison score. As a result, benchmarking figures were obtained on a sectoral and regional basis and an evaluation was made on a sample application. It is seem that European and Asian organizations show the best performance in terms of their benchmark figures, while the worst in the Middle East. On the other hand, Electronics & IT is by far the best performing sector.
