KOLEKTİF GİRİŞİMCİLİK YOLUYLA YENİLİKÇİ ÇÖZÜMLER GELİŞTİRME: KAPSAYICI BİR ÇERÇEVE

Bu çalışma, aynı ya da farklı sektörlerden gelen örgütsel aktörlerin ortak girişimcilik stratejileri sayesinde nasıl birçok soruna yenilikçi çözümler getirebilecekleri üzerine kapsamlı bir tartışma sunmaktadır. Girişimcilik yazını büyük ölçüde tekil aktörlerin girişimlerine vurgu yapsa da, ortaklıklar yoluyla kaynakların bir araya getirilmesi ve tamamlanması mevcut sosyoekonomik, çevresel, politik ve kurumsal sorunlara yeni yaklaşımlar üretilmesine önemli katkı sağlar. Bu tür kolektif girişimcilik sistemlerinin nasıl geliştirildiği, aktörler arasındaki temel işbirliği dinamiklerinin neler olduğu, bu sistemlerin nasıl yönetileceği ve bu kolektif eylemlerin nasıl ve ne zaman yenilikçi sonuçlar verebileceği yanıtlanması gereken sorulardan sadece birkaçıdır. Farklı sektörlerden gelen, görünüşte ilgisiz aktörlerin nasıl işbirliği yaptıklarını anlamak özellikle önemlidir. Bu çalışma, kolektif girişimciliğin düzeylerini, türlerini ve özelliklerini değerlendirerek örgütler için yenilikçi sonuçların nasıl ortaya çıktığı konusunda kuramsal bir çerçeve önermektedir. Yazında kolektif girişimciliğe yönelik artan bir ilgi olmasına rağmen, bu önemli olguyu anlamak için ilk kez kapsamlı bir model sunulmaktadır.

Anahtar Kelimeler:

kolektif girişimcilik, sektörler arası işbirlikleri, pazar yaratma, yenilik, kamu-özel sektör ortaklıkları

DEVELOPING INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS THROUGH COLLECTIVE ENTREPRENUERSHIP: AN INTEGRATED FRAMEWORK

This study provides an extensive discussion on how collective entrepreneurship strategies by multiple organizational actors both within and across sectors can yield innovative solutions to several problems. Although the emphasis in the entrepreneurship literature has been largely on initiatives by single actors, combinations and complementarities of resources through partnerships can significantly help produce novel approaches to the ongoing socioeconomic, environmental, political and institutional challenges. How such collective entrepreneurial systems are developed, what the main collaboration dynamics among actors are, how these systems can be managed, and when and where such collective action can produce innovative results are only a few of the curious questions to answer. An important aspect is to understand how seemingly unrelated actors across diverse sectors collaborate. To this end, this study provides an inclusive theoretical framework on how collective entrepreneurial action stimulates innovative outcomes for organizations by evaluating the level, type and characteristics of entrepreneurial collectives. Even though there has been increasing interest in collective entrepreneurship, this is the first attempt where an integrated model is provided to understand this essential phenomenon.
