Abstract

Bu çalışmada, kadın ve erkek liderlerin kullandıkları güç kaynakları
bağlamında takipçilerin algıladıkları rol uyuşmazlıklarının belirlenmesi ve bu
sürecin çeşitli örgütsel sonuçlar üzerindeki yansımaları incelenmektedir. Spesifik
olarak, kadın bir lider yumuşak güç kaynağı kullandığında izleyicilerin
performansı nasıl etkilenmektedir? Peki ya sert güç kaynakları kullandığında?
Çalışanların perspektifinden bakıldığında, kadınlar daha az etkili liderlik
sergilemekte midir? Nihayetinde, kadınların yönetsel pozisyonlarda temsiliyet
oranlarının halen arzulanan düzeylerde olmamasını daha az etkili liderlik ile
açıklayabilir miyiz? Çalışma, lider ve takipçi cinsiyetinin, liderin kullandığı
güç kaynakları ile çalışan performansı –görev ve bağlamsal- arasındaki
ilişkideki rolünü 2 (yumuşak ve sert güç) x 2 (kadın lider ve erkek lider) x 2
(kadın çalışan ve erkek çalışan) şeklindeki bir model üzerinde problematize
etmektedir. Çalışmada aynı zamanda liderin güç kaynakları kullanımına ilişkin
toplumsal cinsiyet kalıp yargılarına dayanan farklılıkların (yumuşak güç
kullanımının kadınlara; sert güç kullanımının erkeklere atfedilmesi gibi)
Türkiye’deki liderlik süreçleri bağlamında geçerli olup olmadığı
araştırılmaktadır. Araştırma hipotezleri, 650 kişilik beyaz yakalılardan oluşan
bir çalışma grubu üzerinde sınanmakta ve bulgular, kuramsal ve uygulamaya dönük
katkılar bağlamında tartışılmaktadır.    

Keywords
