Abstract

Abstract
We live in an unprecedented dynamic world. Technology continues to constantly change the way we communicate, travel, work and live. Change detection is our understanding of change in the world around us. The ability to perceive change is essential in most of our daily and work lives. In this context, the article aims to determine the change perceptions, change strategies and change management styles of industrial entrepreneurs. The data were collected using a semi-structured and in-depth interview method. MAXQDA 2020 qualitative data analysis program was used to analyze the data. According to the results of the analysis, industrial entrepreneurs stated that they perceive change as continuous development and change as team work. It has been determined that industrial entrepreneurs determine their strategies by taking into account the demand and technology while making the change. Participants stated that change brings success, profit and efficiency, and that employees experience fear and adaptation problems during change. Finally, it was seen that entrepreneurs also made suggestions about being balanced and in control while making changes.

Abstract

Öz
Eşi görülmemiş dinamik bir dünyada yaşamaktayız. Teknoloji, iletişim kurma, seyahat etme, çalışma ve yaşama şeklimizi sürekli değişmeye devam etmektedir. Değişim tespiti, çevremizdeki dünyadaki değişim anlayışımızdır. Değişikliği algılama yeteneği, günlük ve çalışma hayatımızın çoğunda çok önemlidir. Bu bağlamda makale, endüstriyel girişimcilerin değişim algılarını, değişim stratejilerini ve değişim yönetim tarzlarını belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Veriler yarı yapılandırılmış ve derinlemesine yönelik mülakat yöntemi kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizi için MAXQDA 2020 nitel veri analizi programı kullanılmıştır. Analiz çıktılarına göre endüstriyel girişimciler, değişimi sürekli gelişim ve değişimi ekip işi şeklinde algıladıklarını ifade etmişlerdir. Endüstriyel girişimcilerin değişimi gerçekleştirirken talebi ve teknolojisini dikkate alarak stratejilerini belirledikleri tespit edilmiştir. Katılımcılar, değişimin başarı, kar ve verimlilik getirdiğini ayrıca çalışanların değişim sırasında korku ve adaptasyon sorunu yaşadıklarını belirtmişlerdir. Son olarak girişimcilerin değişim yapılırken dengeli, kontrollü olunması konusunda öneri de bulundukları görülmüştür.
