Abstract

The purpose of this study is to learn whether Turkish managers find 14 management principles of Henri Fayol still applicable today, having left over 100 years since publishment. It has been designed as the pilot stage of a wider study to follow and is of mostly descriptive nature. 35 survey interviews were carried out with managers of Turkish companies with over 500 employees. At the end, it is found out that Fayol principles are seen to be still valid. Agreement over “initiative”, “equity”, “esprit de corps”, “renumeration” and “order” principles have been highest; whereas “authority” was evaluated as least applicable.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Henri Fayol’ün yayınlanmasının üzerinden 100 yılı aşkın bir süre geçmiş olan 14 yönetim prensibinin günümüzde hala geçerli olup olmadığına dair Türkiye’deki yöneticilerin görüşlerini öğrenmektir. Büyük ölçüde betimsel ve daha büyük bir araştırmanın pilot aşaması olarak kurgulanan çalışmada 500 üzeri çalışanı olan Türk firmalarında görev yapan 35 yönetici ile anket yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda, Fayol’ün görüşlerinin büyük ölçüde hala geçerli olarak değerlendirildiği görülmüştür. Araştırmaya katılan yöneticiler, özellikle Fayol’ün “inisiyatif kullanma”, “hakkaniyet/eşitlik”, “çalışanlar arasında birlik”, “personel ücretleri” ve “düzen” prensipleri ile kuvvetli bir biçimde hemfikirdir. En az destek bulan prensip ise “otorite” olmuştur.
