    Sürdürülebilirlik Bağlamında Dijital Miras Kavramı
    (Süleyman Demirel Üniversitesi, 2022) Alay, Hazal Koray; DEVECİYAN, MERİ TAKSİ
    Yaşanan teknolojik gelişmelerle birlikte internetin, günlük yaşamın vazgeçilmez bir unsuru olması geride bıraktığımız ayak izlerini giderek dijitalleştirmektedir. Bu bağlamda, öldüğümüzde “Dijital varlıklarımıza ne olacak?” sorusu giderek daha önemli hale gelmektedir. Dijital varlıkların yönetimi ile anlamlılık kazanan bu konu, dijital miras kavramını ortaya çıkarmıştır. Özellikle yerli yazında çok az çalışılmış olan, uluslararası yazında ise hukuki, tarihsel boyutu ile ağırlıklı yer bulmuş olan dijital miras kavramını incelemek alan yazına katkı sunmak açısından önem arz etmektedir. Dijital miras, dijitalleşmenin bir sonucu olarak hayatımıza giren, dijital ortamda somut ve soyut malvarlıklarının (alan adları, sosyal medya hesapları vb.), kişinin ölümünden sonra saklanması, depolanması, varislere devrini de içeren bir kavramdır. Dijital miras konusunun anlaşılır kılınması için, nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden ikincil kaynak taraması yapılarak konuya yönelik farkındalık oluşturmak araştırmanın birincil amacıdır. Ayrıca dijital miras kavramını sürdürülebilirlik yönetimi bağlamında ele alarak stratejik yönetime dair birtakım çıkarımlarda bulunmak, bu alanda çalışmak isteyen akademisyenlere de yol gösterici olmak amaçlanmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, sürdürülebilir dijital miras konusunun ulusal ve uluslararası alan yazında bu bağlamda ele alınmadığı, dijital mirasa yönelik ulusal yazında oldukça az çalışma olduğu, yapılan çalışmaların odak noktasının yasal düzenlemelere yönelik olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

    Global ve Yerel Enerji Şirketlerinin Vizyon İfadelerinin İncelenmesi
    (Yönetim Bilimleri Dergisi, 2024) DEVECİYAN, MERİ TAKSİ
    Çalışma ile global ve yerel en başarılı enerji şirketlerinin (Fortune Global 500 ve ISO 500 sıralamasına göre) vizyon bildirileri içerik özellikleri ve aralarında fark olup olmaması bakımından analiz edilerek, vizyon bildirileri ile hangi özelliklerin/kelimelerin vurgulandığının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemi nitel araştırma yöntemlerinde sıklıkla kullanılan ölçüt örnekleme tekniğine göre belirlenmiştir. Fortune Global 500 ve Uluslararası Standartlar Teşkilatı 500, 2022 web sayfalarında (8-10 ocak tarihleri arasında) en başarılı olarak sıralanan enerji şirketlerinden ilk on altısı araştırmaya dahil edilmiştir. Vizyon bildirileri betimsel nitel içerik analizi ile incelenmiş, temalar altında değerlendirilmiş, sıklıkla kullanılan kelimeler Maxqda 2022 nitel veri analiz programı yardımı ile tespit edilmiş ve görselleştirilmiştir. Ayrıca vizyon bildirileri Kantabutra (2008)’in sınıflandırmış olduğu bileşenlere sahip olup/olunmaması açısından da değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma sonucuna göre global şirket vizyon temaları; “sürdürülebilirlik ve çevresel sorumluluk”, “müşteri odaklılık ve kalite”, “inovasyon ve teknoloji liderliği” olarak, yerel şirket vizyon temaları ise “liderlik ve örnek olma”,”yenilik ve teknoloji odaklılık” olarak bulgulanmıştır. Kantabutra (2018) vizyon bileşenlerine göre; yerel ve global şirketlerin vizyon beyanları karşılaştırıldığında ise; her ikisinde de en çok yer alan vizyon bileşeninin “netlik” olduğu saptanmıştır. Vizyon bildirilerinde en çok tekrarlanan kelimenin ise araştırma için seçilen sektör olduğundan “enerji” kelimesi olduğu izlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak, bu araştırma enerji sektöründeki şirketlerin vizyonlarını anlamak ve karşılaştırmak için değerli bir katkı sağlamaktadır. Şirketlerin stratejik hedeflerini belirleme ve çalışanlarını motive etme konusundaki yaklaşımlarını anlamak için bu tür çalışmaların farkındalık yaratması beklenmektedir.

    (Beykoz Üniversitesi, 2024) Arıkboğa, Fatma Şebnem; DEVECİYAN, MERİ TAKSİ
    The study aims to reveal how minority entrepreneurs benefit from social networks and the role of social networks in the jewelry sector, which is considered one of the sectors where the use of social networks can be easily detected, where ethnic and minority entrepreneurs are clustered in Istanbul province, in Türkiye. In this context, phenomenology design was used as a qualitative research method, and the research data was collected through individual face-to-face in-depth interviews with a pre-prepared semi-structured questionnaire with 24 minority entrepreneurs registered with the Istanbul Chamber of Jewelers (IKO) and the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce Jewelry Committee (ITO). Descriptive and coding-based qualitative content analysis was used to analyze the data. MAXQDA qualitative data analysis program was used to visualize the data. As a result of the study, minority entrepreneurs in the jewelry sector benefit heavily from their social networks (especially their co-ethnic group) to access resources. Within the framework of the unique structure of the jewelry sector and the internal dynamics of minorities, the impact of the concept of "master" on the social networks of entrepreneurs in addition to family friends, who are among their strong and close networks, was also observed. The study is expected to contribute to the field by offering suggestions, as it is the only study that addresses the concept of "master" in the sectors of the creative industries and brings the concept to the literature.

    Ethical Leadership, Organizational Culture, and Intrapreneurship: A Study in the Banking Sector
    (Nişantaşı Üniversitesi, 2024) DEVECİYAN, MERİ TAKSİ
    The purpose of this research is to measure the perceptions of bank sector employees regarding ethical leadership, intrapreneurship, and organizational culture, and to examine the relationship between these variables. The cross-sectional survey method was utilized for data collection and analysis, employing quantitative research methods. For this purpose, data collected through surveys from 395 bank personnel using convenience sampling method were evaluated through statistical analyses. The findings indicate a significant positive relationship among bank employees between ethical leadership, organizational culture, and intrapreneurial behavior. It was found that organizational culture has a higher explanatory power for intrapreneurship than the perception of ethical leadership, while ethical leadership has a higher explanatory power for organizational culture. This study provides a significant contribution to understanding the dynamic relationship between ethical leadership, intrapreneurship, and organizational culture. This understanding can guide managers and researchers in leadership strategies and organizational culture development practices. The rarity and significance of this study are underscored by the lack of previous research simultaneously addressing the relationship between ethical leadership, intrapreneurship, and organizational culture in the banking sector, thus indicating its potential to contribute to the academic literature in this field.

    The purpose of this research is to understand the relationship between green business ethics, green finance, and sustainable business performance, and to evaluate the role of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in this relationship. The impact of the damage inflicted on nature's functioning order is being felt much more strongly today. In light of these realities, companies must emphasize sustainability principles not just out of financial concerns but as a result of corporate social responsibility. In this context, focusing on the role of corporate social responsibility in sustainable business performance is the main goal of this research. Quantitative research methods, specifically the cross-sectional survey method, were employed for data collection and analysis. For this purpose, a convenience sampling method was used to select 427 white-collar employees working in industries operating in T & uuml;rkiye as the sample for this study. The data collected through surveys were analyzed using the AMOS 24 statistical program. The findings underscore that green business ethics and green finance have a significant impact on corporate social responsibility and sustainable business performance. Additionally, it was determined that corporate social responsibility plays an intermediary role in shaping sustainable business performance. These findings are expected to provide an important foundation that can guide both employees and managers in developing awareness about green policies and sustainability, emphasizing the importance of green policies in working life.
