Abstract

Örgütlerde hat yöneticilerin yönetim tarzları ve etkinliği, örgüte ilişkin faktörlerle ilişkilendirilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, örgütsel faktörler bağlamında hat yöneticilerin yönetim tarzları üzerinde etkili olacağı varsayılan, hat Yöneticiler örgüt yapısı ve insan kaynakları departmanının stratejik rolleri ele alınmıştır. Bu doğrultuda, örgüt yapılarının hat yöneticilerin yönetim tarzları üzerindeki etkisinin incelenmesi ve bu etki üzerinde insan kaynakları departmanının stratejik rollerinin aracılık etkisinin açıklanması amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma kapsamında Antalya’da faaliyet gösteren on adet beş yıldızlı otel işletmesinin 165 hat yöneticisinden anket tekniği ile veriler elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler açıklayıcı ve doğrulayıcı faktör analizleri, korelasyon analizi ve hiyerarşik regresyon analizi vasıtasıyla değerlendirilmiştir. Araştırma bulgularına göre, organik örgüt yapısının hat yöneticilerin (liderlik, politika uygulayıcısı ve koçluk şeklindeki) yönetim tarzlarını pozitif yönde; mekanik örgüt yapısının ise (politika uygulayıcısı ve koçluk şeklindeki) yönetim tarzlarını pozitif yönde etkilediği belirlenmiştir. Bununla birlikte, insan kaynakları departmanının stratejik rollerinin hat yöneticilerin yönetim tarzlarını pozitif yönde etkilediği görülmüştür. Ayrıca, organik örgüt yapısının hat yöneticilerin yönetim tarzları üzerindeki etkisinde insan kaynakları departmanının stratejik rollerinin kısmi aracılık etkisine; mekanik örgüt yapısının hat yöneticilerin yönetim tarzları üzerindeki etkisinde ise insan kaynakları departmanının stratejik rollerinin tam aracılık etkisine sahip olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of organizational structure on line managers’ management styles by investigating the mediating role of the strategic roles of human resource department. Within the scope of the study, data has been collected via survey method from 165 line managers who are working in ten hotel establishments located in Antalya. The data obtained from line managers has been examined by the exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, correlation and hierarchical regression analysis. Based on the findings, it is observed that organic organizational structure has positive and significant effect on line managers (leadership, policy implementation and coaching) management styles and it is found that mechanic organizational structure has positive and significant effect on line managers (policy implementation and coaching) management styles. However, it is observed that human resource department strategic roles have a positive and significant effect on line managers’ management styles. Moreover, it is found that human resource department strategic roles have a partial mediating effect in the relationships between organic organizational structure and line managers’ managements styles, whereas human resource department strategic roles have a full mediating effect in the relationships between mechanic organizational structure and line managers’ managements styles.
