Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, konaklama işletmelerinde müşterilerle yüz yüze etkileşim halinde bulunan işgörenlerin müşteri odaklılığının işgören devrine etkisini ve müşteri odaklılık ile işgören devri arasında iş tatmininin aracılık rolünü incelemektir. Örnekleme yöntemi olarak amaca göre örnekleme yöntemi tercih edilmiş ve alan araştırmasına Nevşehir ve Konya ilindeki üç, dört ve beş yıldızlı otel işletmelerinin işgörenleri dahil edilmiştir. Anket yoluyla elde edilen verilerle PROCESS yazılımı kullanılarak aracılık analizi yapılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, çalışanların müşteri odaklılığının işten ayrılma niyeti üzerinde istatistiki açıdan anlamlı doğrudan bir etkisinin olmadığı, ancak iş tatmini üzerinde anlamlı ve olumlu etkisi olduğu anlaşılmıştır. Ayrıca müşteri odaklılık ile işten ayrılma niyeti arasında iş tatmininin tam aracılık rolü oynadığı ve müşteri odaklılığın işten ayrılma niyetini iş tatmini aracılığı ile etkilediği ve baskıladığı tespit edilmiştir. Bulgular ışığında konaklama işletmesi yöneticilerine çeşitli önerilerde bulunulmuştur
