Abstract

This article reports on the impact of managerial autonomy and strategic control on organizational politics and show how the latter influence effectiveness of strategic planning. In doing so, it outlines particular directions that a rebalanced strategic management research agenda may take. Whereas organizational politics have received sustained interest in the management literature, its conceptual and empirical examination in the tourism industry has been meagre. The data of this study were collected by questionnaire from 310 four and five stars hotel managers in Antalya. Data were analyzed with related statistical package programs. The results are partially consistent with the expected results in the relevant literature. According to the findings, managers' perceptions of autonomy increase political behavior in organizations, whereas strategic control affects organizational politics positively. Organizational politics, on the other hand, affect strategic planning performance positively.

Abstract

Bu çalışmada yönetici özerkliği ve stratejik kontrolün örgütsel politikayı, örgütsel politikanın da stratejik planlama performansını nasıl yordadığı belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Konu ele alınırken stratejik yönetim yazınının gündeminde olan güncel bilgi birikimine yaslanılmıştır. Örgütsel politika konusu yönetim literatüründe sürekli ilgi görürken, turizm sektöründeki kavramsal ve ampirik incelemesi yetersiz kalmıştır. Bu çalışmada, Antalya’da bulunan dört ve beş yıldızlı 310 otelin yöneticilerinden anket tekniği ile toplanan veriler, ilgili istatistiksel programlarla analiz edilmiştir. Ulaşılan sonuçlar ilgili literatürdeki beklenen sonuçlar ile kısmen örtüşmektedir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre yöneticilerin özerklik algılamaları örgütlerde politik davranışları artırmakta, buna karşın stratejik kontrol örgütsel politikayı pozitif yönde etkilemektedir. Örgütsel politika ise stratejik planlama performansını pozitif yönde etkilemektedir.
