Abstract

Bu çalışma, kuruma yeni gelenlerin
uyguladıkları proaktif sosyalizasyon taktiklerin örgüte bağlılığa etkisinin ve
bu etkide sosyal bütünleşmenin aracı rolünün irdelenmesi amacıyla
gerçekleştirilmiştir. Gruman vd. (2006) tarafından yapılan araştırmanın bir
devam çalışması niteliğindeki çalışma kapsamında İstanbul ilinde on beş farklı
sektörde 371 kişi tarafından cevaplanan anketler değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmuş
ve yapılan analiz sonucunda; anketi cevaplayan kuruma yeni gelen çalışanların
uyguladıkları proaktif sosyalizasyon taktiklerinden geri bildirim arayışı, iş
değişim müzakereleri, üst ilişkileri, pozitif bakış açısı, genel sosyalleşme,
sosyal ağ kurma gibi taktikler, yeni gelenlerin örgüte bağlılıkları üzerinde
pozitif ve anlamlı bir etkiye sahipken; yine bu taktiklerden iş değişim
müzakereleri, geribildirim arayışı, sosyal ağ kurma ve pozitif bakış açısının
sosyal bütünleşme üzerinde pozitif ve anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olduğu ortaya
koyulmuştur. Araştırmada aynı zamanda, iş değişim müzakereleri, geribildirim
arayışı ve pozitif bakış gibi proaktif sosyalizasyon taktiklerinin örgüte
bağlılığa etkisinde sosyal bütünleşmenin kısmi aracı etkiye sahip olduğu
görülmüştür.
