Türkiye'de Faaliyette Bulunan Uluslararası Ortak Girişimlerde Örgüt Kültürü: Yerel Sosyo-Kültürel Bağlamın Eşbiçimlilik Etkisi

Çalışma, yerel sosyo-kültürel bağlamın Türkiye’de faaliyette bulunan uluslararası ortak girişimlerin (UOG) örgüt kültürleri üzerindeki eşbiçimlilik etkilerini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Burada UOG’lerin örgüt kültürleri ve yerel sosyo-kültürel bağlam hem uygulama hem de değer düzeyinde, varolan literatürden hareketle geliştirilen, ortaklaşa davranışçılık, güç mesafesi, belirsizlikten kaçınma, performansa ilişkin yönelim, zamana ilişkin yönelim ve paternalizm kültürel boyutlarında ele alınmaktadır. UOG’lerin örgüt kültürleri ile yerel sosyo-bağlam arasındaki ilişki çeşitli teorik perspektiflere dayanarak geliştirilen araya giren değişkenler de göz önüne alınarak t-testi ve tobit analizleriyle test edilmiştir. Çalışmada soru kağıdı yöntemiyle Türkiye’de faaliyette bulunan UOG’lerden elde edilen birincil veriler kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, yerel sosyo-kültürel bağlamın UOG’lerin örgütsel uygulamalar düzeyinde sadece ortaklaşa davranışçılık, örgütsel değerler düzeyinde ise zamana ilişkin yönelim ve paternalizm boyutları üzerinde etkili olduğunu göstermektedir.

The Organizational Culture of International Joint Ventures Operating in Turkey: The Isomorphic Effects of the Local Societal-Cultural Context

The aim of this study is to examine the isomorphic impacts of the local socio-cultural context on the organizational culture of international joint ventures (IJVs) operating in Turkey. The dimensions of organizational culture of IJVs and local socio-cultural context at both value and practice levels are examined through collectivism, power distance, uncertainty avoidance, performance orientation, time orientation and paternalism in light of related literature. The relationship between the societal and organizational culture in IJVs is tested through tobit and t-test analyses in which a series of the moderating variables are taken into account. Data are drawn from the IJVs operating in Turkey by questionnaire. The results suggest that the local socio-cultural context has an affect the organizational practices of IJVs at only collectivism dimension while it has affects the organizational values of IJVs at time orientations and paternalism dimensions.
