YÖNETİCİLERLE AÇIKÇA KONUŞABİLME DÜZEYİNİN GENEL KONUŞMA NEDENLERİNE ETKİSİ: ÜNİVERSİTELERDE BİR ARAŞTIRMA

Günümüz küresel rekabet ortamında üniversiteler bilimsel bilgi üretmenin ve paylaşmanın merkezi konumundadırlar. Öğretim elemanları farklı, yeni ve yaratıcı çeşitli fikirlere sahiptirler.  Bunları açığa çıkarıp üretim sürecine katabilmenin yollarından biri de yöneticileriyle açıkça konuşabilmeleridir. Araştırmanın amacı ülkemiz üniversitelerinde görev yapan öğretim elemanlarının yöneticileriyle (bölüm başkanı, dekan rektör vb.) açıkça konuşabilme düzeyinin onlarla genel olarak konuşabilme nedenlerine etkisini belirlemeye yöneliktir. Araştırmada öğretim elemanlarının çeşitli konularda yöneticileriyle konuşmalarının, onlarla açıkça konuşabilme durumuna göre genel olarak farklılık gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Yöneticileriyle açıkça konuşabilen öğretim elemanlarının,  çeşitli nedenlerle konuşma eğilimleri genel olarak daha yüksek çıkmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuç bölümünde ise, öğretim elemanlarının kurumlarında daha çok konuşabilmeleri için çeşitli öneriler yer almaktadır.
