Örgüt belleğinin kapsamı ve etkileri uzerine nitel bir araştırma
Örgüt belleği, işletmenin geçmişinden ve bir bütün olarak öğrendiklerinden elde ettiği bilgiyi depoladığı sistemlerin adıdır. Örgüt belleğini geliştirmek ve bu yolla bilgi kullanımını etkinleştirmek, işletme performansını artırmak için gereklidir. Bilginin tutulduğu örgüt belleği sistemi bireylerin bellekleri ve kullanılan teknolojik depolama araçlarından oluşmaktadır. Bunun yanında, örgüt kültürü, bireylerin bilgi elde etmesi kadar bu bilgiyi paylaşarak örgüte mal etmesi ve kodlayarak kayıt altına almasını da belirlemektedir. Bu bakımdan örgüt belleğinin etkinliği, bireylerin ve teknolojik yapıların uyumlaştırılmasına ve kültürün bu anlamda oynadığı role bağlıdır. Bu çalışmada, örgüt belleği teorik olarak tanımlanmakta, kapsamı ve etkileri bir örnek işletme üzerinden tespit edilmeye çalışılmaktadır. Örgüt belleğinin bireyden bireye bilgi aktarımı ve bireysel belleklerde bilgi depolama ile birey-teknoloji etkileşimi çerçevesinde ortaya çıkan bilgi paylaşma ve depolama işlevleri açıklanmaktadır. Bu işlevler doğrultusunda, konaklama sektöründe lider konumundaki bir örnek işletmenin uygulamaları ve bilgi işleme süreçleri incelenmekte, örgüt belleği kavramı somutlaştırılmaya çalışılmaktadır. Örgüt belleğinin etkileri bulgular doğrultusunda ortaya koyulmaktadır.
