KOBİ’lerde Bir Motivasyon Aracı Olarak Liderlik ve Öneriler

Küçük ve Orta Büyüklükteki İşletme (KOBİ)’ler organizasyonel olarak dar bir kadro ile üretim ve yönetim faaliyetlerini yürütmektedirler. Bu durum birden fazla işin bir personel üzerinde birikmesine dolayısıyla iş yükünden ötürü motivasyon düşüklüklerine sebebiyet vermektedir. Motivasyon düşüklüğü ise üretkenlikte kayıplar meydana getirmekte ve maliyet düşümü için uygulanan personel kısıntısı işletmenin aleyhine olarak maliyetleri yükseltmektedir. İş gücü için gerekli motivasyon maddi imkanların artırılması ile bir yere kadar sağlanabilmekte bu da KOBİ’nin maliyetlerini artırmakta ve doyum noktasına eriştiğinde personelin motivasyonu daha fazla yükselmemektedir. Maddi imkanları yadsımamakla birlikte asıl olan motivasyon kaynağının içsel ve dışsal maddi olmayan kaynaklardan gelmesi yaygın görüştür. İçsel kaynaklar kişilik yapısı ve davranışsal yapılar olarak nitelendirilmekle birlikte dışsal motivasyonu sağlayacak en önemli etki mevcut yöneticilerin liderlik vasıflarının geliştirilerek personeli sürüklemesi ve organizasyon içerisinde yeni liderlerin oluşumuna imkân sağlamasıdır. Bu çalışmada literatürde yer alan ilgili çalışmaların analizleri yapılarak KOBİ’lerde Liderlik kültürünün sağlanmasına ilişkin niteliksel özellikler ile çözüm önerileri üzerinde durulmuştur.

Leadership and Recommendations as a Motivation Tool in SMEs’

Small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) organize production and management activities with a narrow staff. This is caused by the accumulation of more than one job on a staff, resulting in lower motivation due to work load. Lack of motivation leads to loss of productivity, and the cost of staffing for cost reduction increases costs against the operator. Motivation for the workforce can be provided up to one time by increasing the financial means, which increases the costs of the SME and does not increase the motivation of the staff when it reaches the satisfaction point. It is common to see that the source of motivation that comes with negation of material means comes from internal and external non-material sources. While internal resources are characterized as personality and behavioral constructs, the most important effect that will provide external motivation is to improve the leadership qualities of existing managers and to allow staff trafficking and the formation of new leaders within the organization. In this study, the relevant studies in the literature was analyzed and the qualitative features and solutions for providing leadership culture in SMEs were discussed.
