Year 2014, Volume: 10 Issue: 1, 0 - , 28.03.2014

Abstract

Bu çalışma ile örgüt, lider, çalışanlar ve onların aileleri için ciddi bir sorun olan yıkıcı liderlik ile ilgili Türkiye’de var olan kuramsal boşluğun doldurulması ve buna ilişkin alan çalışmalarına yardımcı olunması hedeflenmektedir.  Bu bağlamda yapılan çalışmada öncelikle, literatüre bağlı kalınarak çeşitli yazarlara ait yıkıcı liderlik tanımları yapılmıştır. Sonra yıkıcı liderlik türleri değişik açılardan tanıtılmış ve yıkıcı liderliği ortaya çıkaran nedenler açıklanmıştır. Daha sonra, yıkıcı liderliğin örgüt ve çalışanlar üzerindeki etkileri, yapılan araştırma sonuçlarına bağlı kalınarak verilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonunda da yıkıcı liderliğin etkilerini ortadan kaldırmak veya en aza indirmek için alınması gereken önlemler üzerinde durulmuştur. Yıkıcı liderlik konusunda yapılan çalışmaların nihai amacı yıkıcı liderliğin kişilere ve kurumlara verdiği zararın önüne geçmektir. Bunun için de yıkıcı liderlik davranışlarını uygulanamaz kılacak etik bir çerçeve oluşturulmalıdır.

Abstract

This study aims at filling the theoretical gap in Turkish literature about destructive leadership which is a serious problem for organizations, leaders, followers, and their families; and contribute to related field studies. In this regard, first of all, the definitions of destructive leadership by several authors were made abiding by the literature. Then, types of destructive leadership were described in terms of several perspectives and causes that create destructive leadership were explained. Next, the study attempted to cover the effects of destructive leadership on organizations and employees on the grounds of research results. Finally, precautions that should be taken to eliminate or minimize destructive leadership were addressed. The ultimate purpose of studies on destructive leadership is to prevent the destruction it causes to persons and organizations. Therefore, an ethical framework that makes destructive leadership inapplicable should be implemented.
