Farklı Örgüt Kültürü Tipleri ve Liderlik Tarzları ile Örgütsel Bağlılık Arasındaki İlişki: Lojistik İşletmelerinde Bir Araştırma

Ürünlerin hareketliliğini sağlayarak işletmelerin küresel rekabet ortamındaki mücadelesine doğrudan hizmet eden lojistik işletmelerinde ulaşım ve iletişim teknolojilerindeki tüm gelişme ve ilerlemelere rağmen halen emek egemen bir yapı sürmektedir. Bu nedenle çalışanlar vasıtasıyla yaratılan örgütsel yeteneklerin sürdürülebilmesi rekabet avantajı yaratan bir faktördür. Literatüre göre çalışanların iş yerinde sürekliliği ve üstün performansları örgütsel bağlılık düzeyleriyle kuvvetli bir ilişki içindedir. Bunun yanında lojistik işletmelerinde rekabetçi çevreye uyum sağlayacak değişimlerin yapılması ve çalışanlar vasıtasıyla işletmeye özel örgütsel yeteneklerin yaratılabilmesi için yöneticilerin yetenek yaratıcı bir örgütsel kültürü yaratacak ve destekleyecek liderlik davranışları sergilemesi gerekliliği de ayrı bir ihtiyaçtır. Bu çerçevede çalışmanın amacı örgütsel davranış araştırmalarında ihmal edilmiş bulunan lojistik sektöründeki işletmelerde çalışanların örgütsel bağlılıklarının sağlanmasında farklı örgüt kültürü tipleri ile liderlik tarzlarının etkilerini ortaya koymaktır. Bu maksatla 39 lojistik işletmesinden elde edilen 448 anket SPSS 15 programıyla analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçları liderlik tarzları ve örgüt kültürünün bazı boyutlarının örgütsel bağlılık üzerindeki pozitif etkilerini ortaya koymaktadır.
