Özet

Tüm sektörlerde olduğu gibi inşaat sektöründe de bir projenin başarılı olabilmesi için, yöneticinin sahip olduğu liderlik özellikleri büyük rol oynamaktadır. Çünkü liderin, çalışanların tutum, davranış ve başarı düzeylerini önemli ölçüde etkilemesi organizasyonların performansını da etkilemektedir. Bu nedenle, bu çalışmada Türk inşaat sektöründe faaliyet gösteren proje yöneticilerinin liderlik stillerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöneticilerin kendi ile ilgili değerlendirmeleri tarafsız bir şekilde yapamayacağı düşünülerek, sektörde iş gören mimar ve inşaat mühendislerinin görüşlerine başvurulmuştur. Bu çerçevede, "Çok Faktörlü Liderlik Anketi (MLQ-5X)" kullanılarak veri toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler ile proje yöneticilerinin liderlik stillerinin belirlenmesine ek olarak, yöneticilerin liderlik stilleri ile cinsiyet, meslek ve deneyim süresi arasında ilişki olup olmadığı araştırılmıştır
