Akademik ve İdari Personelin İç Girişimcilik Algılarının Ölçülmesi Üzerine Bir Araştırma

Dünyada ve Türkiye'de üniversite sayısı hızla artmakta, doğal olarak da budurum kurumlar arasında bir rekabet ortamı oluşmaktadır. Bu rekabet yarışında, üniversite çalışanlarının üstlenecekleri roller ile o kuruma sağlayacakları katkılar da önem taşımaktadır. Bu araştırma, üniversitelerde çalışan akademisyen ve idari personelin iç girişimcilik algısını ölçmek amacı ile yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın evrenini, bölgedeki tek vakıf üniversitesinin çalışanlarıoluşturmaktadır. Örneklemini ise 121 akademisyen, 57 fakülte üyesi ve 64'ühazırlık sınıfı okutmanı ve 77'si idari personel olmak üzere, toplam 198 kişioluşturmaktadır. Araştırma verileri, anket yöntemi kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. Toplanan veriler, SPSS paket programı aracılığıyla betimsel istatistik, ttesti ve tek yönlü varyans analizi gibi istatistik tekniklere tabi tutularak analiz edilmiş, iç girişimciliğin algılanması ile ilgili 5 boyut incelenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, üniversitede çalışan akademik ve idari personelin iç girişimciliğe ilişkin algılarında, her boyutta ortalama bir değere sahip olduklarısaptanmış, üniversitenin içyapısında ise söz konusu 5 boyuta göre geliştirilmeye açık alanlar olduğu bulunmuştur. İç girişimcilik boyutları arasında yeralan "Zaman" ve "Örgüt Sınırları" boyutlarının en fazla geliştirilmesi gereken boyutlar olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Akademisyenler ile idari personelin içgirişimcilik boyutlarına ilişkin algıları sadece "zaman" faktörü açısından anlamlı bir biçimde farklılık göstermektedir. Cinsiyet, medeni durum, yaş, ilkkez üniversitede çalışma, çalışılmak istenen sektör, anne ve baba mesleği gibi demografik değişkenler açısından bakıldığında ise üniversite çalışanlarınıniç girişimcilik algılarında anlamlı bir farklılık olmadığı görülmüştür. Üniversitelerin çalışanlarına sağlayacağı destek, kaynak ve imkânların yanı sıra, işyapısı ve kurum içi faktörlerin iyileştirilmesi yoluyla da iç girişimciliğin artacağı ve gelişmenin sağlanabileceği sonucuna varılmıştır

A study perception of academic and administrative staff towards intrapreneurship

The number of universities is on a continuous rise in Turkey and aroundthe world, making the competition between them ever more intense. In thiscompetition, university staff have an important contribution to make totheir organizations, through the roles they will assume. This study aims tomeasure perceptions of intrapreneurship among academic and administrative staff. The population of this study consisted of the employees of theonly private university in the region. A total of 198 university employeesparticipated in the study, 121 of them academics (57 faculty members and64 English instructors) and 77 members of the administrative staff. Datawere collected using survey methodology. The data collected were examined using statistical techniques such as descriptive analysis, t-test and oneway analysis of variance, conducted using the SPSS software package, focusing on five dimensions of intrapreneurship. Academic and administrativestaff received average scores for each dimension of intrapreneurship, andareas of improvement associated with the five dimensions were identified inthe internal structure of the university. “Time” and “OrganizationalBoundaries” were identified as the dimensions most in need of improvement. Academics and administrative staff were found to differ significantlyin their perceptions of intrapreneurship only with respect to the “time”dimension. Demographic variables such as gender, marital status, age, firsttime employment at a university, desired sector, and professions of parentsdid not result in significant differences among university employees interms of their perceptions of intrapreneurship. To develop and improveintrapreneurship, universities are advised to focus on job structure andintra-organizational factors, as well as on resources, benefits and other support provided to employees
