Anahtar Kelime: Pandemi Günlerinde Örgüt Kültürünün Değişen Yüzü Üzerine Bir Araştırma
Öz: Örgüt kültürü, örgüt çalışanlarının düşünce, tutum ve davranışlarını analiz ederek örgütteki insan davranışlarını anlamaya çalışır. Örgüt kültürü araştırmalarının temel amacı, örgütsel işleyiş ve davranışı daha iyi anlamaktır. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, bir devlet üniversitesinde görev yapan öğretim üyelerinin pandemi sürecinde örgüt kültüründe yaşanan değişimlere ilişkin deneyimlerini incelemektir. Araştırma, yöntemi açısından nitel bir araştırma olup, araştırmada nitel araştırma desenlerinden biri olan durum çalışması deseni kullanılmıştır. Araştırma, üniversitelerin farklı birimlerinde görev yapan 16 akademisyen ve idari personelden oluşan bir çalışma grubu ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak gözlem ve yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme teknikleri kullanılmıştır. Toplanan veriler, gözlem aktarımı ve nitel içerik analizi ile çözümlenmiştir. Analiz bulgularına göre, katılımcıların pandemi sürecinde örgütsel etnografyadaki değişime ilişkin görüşleri, bu sürecin örgütsel tutum ve davranışlarda önemli bir değişim ortaya çıkardığına işaret etmektedir. Analiz bulguları, pandemi gibi travmatik bir değişimin örgütsel alanda çeşitli belirsizliklere ve dirençlere neden olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Salgının neden olduğu iş tatminsizliği ve motivasyon kaybını ortadan kaldırmak için bu sürecin koşullarına uygun esnek bir örgüt kültürü inşa etmede örgütsel desteğin şart olduğu anlaşılmaktadır.
