Abstract

This study examines how employees' perceptions of altruistic leadership relate to team performance in a healthcare setting. Data were collected from healthcare workers at a university hospital in Afyonkarahisar, Turkey, during 2024–2025 using the Altruistic Leadership Scale and the Team Performance Scale. One-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and simple linear regression were used to analyze the data. Results showed no significant differences in altruism or team performance by age or gender. However, job title meaningfully shaped team performance perceptions; nurses and administrative staff scored higher than physicians. The hospital unit where employees worked also mattered: administrative units reported the highest levels of both altruism and team performance, while surgical units scored lowest on both. A meaningful and positive relationship was found between altruistic leadership and team performance, and altruistic leadership significantly predicted team performance, explaining a notable portion of the variance. These results highlight that when employees perceive their leaders as genuinely caring and selfless, teams tend to function more effectively. Healthcare organizations may benefit from embedding altruistic values into leadership training and tailoring team structures to the unique demands of each unit.

Özet

Bu çalışma, çalışanların özgeci liderlik algılarının sağlık kuruluşlarındaki takım performansıyla nasıl ilişkilendiğini incelemektedir. Veriler, 2024–2025 döneminde Afyonkarahisar'daki bir üniversite hastanesinde görev yapan sağlık çalışanlarından Özgeci Liderlik Ölçeği ve Takım Performansı Ölçeği aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde tek yönlü varyans analizi, Pearson korelasyonu ve basit doğrusal regresyon yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Bulgular, yaş ve cinsiyet değişkenlerine göre özgecilik ve takım performansında anlamlı bir farklılık olmadığını ortaya koymuştur. Bununla birlikte, iş unvanının takım performansı algısını anlamlı biçimde şekillendirdiği görülmüş; hemşireler ve idari personel, doktorlara kıyasla daha yüksek puanlar bildirmiştir. Çalışılan birimin de belirleyici bir etken olduğu anlaşılmış; idari birimler hem özgecilik hem de takım performansında en yüksek düzeyleri raporlarken, cerrahi birimler her iki ölçümde de en düşük puanlara sahip olmuştur. Özgeci liderlik ile takım performansı arasında anlamlı ve pozitif yönlü bir ilişki tespit edilmiş; özgeci liderliğin takım performansını varyansın kayda değer bir bölümünü açıklayarak anlamlı biçimde yordadığı belirlenmiştir. Bu sonuçlar, çalışanların liderlerini gerçek anlamda ilgili ve özverili olarak algıladıklarında takımların daha etkin biçimde işlev gördüğünü ortaya koymaktadır. Sağlık kuruluşları, özgeci değerleri liderlik eğitimlerine entegre ederek ve takım yapılarını her birimin kendine özgü gereksinimlerine göre düzenleyerek bu bulgulardan pratik düzeyde yararlanabilir.
