Özet

Bugünün iş dünyasında, AR-GE faaliyetleri teknolojik gelişmeler ve hızlanan inovasyonlar ile birlikte daha da önemli

hale gelmektedir. Şirketlerdeki AR-GE faaliyetlerinin diğer departmanlarla uyum içerisinde olması, organizasyonun

üretkenlik / verimlilik için oldukça önemlidir. Buna göre, bu çalışmada, AR-GE çalışmaları ile ilgili kararlılığın şirket

çalışanlarınca benimsenmesi ve diğer bölümler üzerindeki etkileri departmanlar arasındaki ilişkiyi güçlendirebilir.

Bu çalışma, Davutpaşa’daki Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi Techno Park’ında ve İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi’nde çalışan

211 özel sektör çalışanı ile yürütülmüştür. Araştırma kapsamında, AR-GE bakış açısı/ davranışıyla ilgili konular

tanımlayıcı istatistik çalışmaları ile incelenmiştir. Ayrıca, çalışanların çalıştıkları departman türüne göre AR-GE

bakış açısındaki farklılık seviyesi ve AR-GE çalışmalarına olan güvenilirlik analizi somutlaştırılmıştır. Departmanlar

arası ilişkiyle ilgili elde edilen sonuçlar, bölüm çalışanlarının yakınlık hissi ve departmanlar arası bilgi değişimi

arasındaki korelasyonun yüksek seviyede olduğu görülmektedir. Sonuç olarak, araştırma kapsamında departmanın

her bir çalışan için Ar-Ge departmanına olan duyarlılığının birbirinden farklı olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
