Türkiye’deki Konteyner Liman İşletmelerinin Çevresel Sürdürülebilirlik Performansı Açısından Öncelikli Yönetici Yetkinliklerine Akademisyen Bakış Açısı

Öz:
Liman işletmeleri, hem kurumsal devamlılıklarını sağlayabilmek hem de kaynakları doğru kullanan, içinde bulunduğu toplum ve çevreye uyumlu örgütler olabilmek için sürdürülebilirlik kavramını önemsemektedir. Bir işletmenin bu çerçevede gerçekleştirdiği etkinlikler onun sürdürülebilirlik performansını oluşturur. İçinde bulunduğu doğal ve biyolojik çevre ile uyumlu liman olgusunun önemli hale gelmesi nedeniyle liman işletmelerinin sürdürülebilirlik performansının çevresel boyutu ele alınmıştır. Bir işletmenin sürdürülebilirlik etkinlikleri, yöneticilerinin özellikleri ve konuya yaklaşımları ile ilgilidir. Bu çalışma, liman işletmelerinin çevresel sürdürülebilirlik performansı açısından öncelikli liman yönetici yetkinliklerinin değerlendirilmesini amaçlar. Çalışmada liman yöneticisi kapsamında operasyon müdürünün yetkinlikleri incelenmiştir. Yetkinliklerin belirlenmesi için üç aşamalı Delfi tekniği kullanılmıştır. Delfi uygulaması, 13 uzman akademisyenden oluşan bir uzman grubu ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma neticesinde 15 adet yetkinlik maddesine ulaşılmıştır. Belirlenen yetkinliklerin, liman işletmelerinde yönetici seçimi ve sürdürülebilirlik çalışmalarına katkıda bulunacağı düşünülmektedir.
