STRATEJİK ORYANTASYON VE FİRMA PERFORMANSI: SERBEST BÖLGE FİRMALARI ÜZERİNDE AMPİRİK BİR ÇALIŞMA
Dünya ticaretinden daha fazla pay alabilmek için ülkelerin stratejilerden biri de serbest bölgelerdir. Serbest bölgeler hem yabancı yatırımcıyı ülkeye çekerek ileri teknoloji girişini hızlandırmakta, hem de ucuz hammadde ve vergi açısından kolaylık sağlayarak ülke ihracatçısını dünya pazarında rekabet edebilir hale getirmektedir. Bu çalışma serbest bölgeler üzerine yapılan kapsamlı bir alan araştırması ile stratejik oryantasyonlar ve firma performansı arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmada stratejik oryantasyonlar olarak pazar, teknoloji ve girişimcilik oryantasyonları ele alındı. Firma performansı ise finansal ve finansal olmayan performans boyutları ile ele alındı. Çalışmada belirli bir olasılık hesabına dayanmayan kolayda örneklem yöntemi kullanılmış ve veriler anket yöntemiyle toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler korelasyon ve (hiyerarşik) regresyon analizleri yapılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Analiz sonucu uygulanan bulgular; stratejik oryantasyonların firma performansı üzerinde etkilerinin olduğunu göstermektedir. Çalışma elde edilen bulguların hem teorik hem de yönetsel anlamda değerlendirilmesi ve yorumlanması ile sona ermektedir
