Özet

Yetkinlik temelli yönetim ve uygulamalara geçişin hızla artması ile birlikte, bir toplumun ekonomisinişekillendirmede önemli bir role sahip olan girişimcinin sahip olduğu yetkinliklerinin geliştirilmesi, işletmelerinana önceliklerinden biri haline gelmiştir. Girişimcilik yetkinliklerine olan ilgi özellikle ayakta kalan vebüyümekte olan girişimlerin performansının arkasındaki nedenlerin ve etkilerin önem kazanmasından ötürügiderek artmaktadır. Girişimci yetkinlik kavramı; girişimcilik kavramı ve yetkinlik kavramının birlikteiçselleştirildiği bir kavramdır. Ancak literatürdeki araştırmalar açısından oldukça yeni ve sınırlı çalışmaya konuolduğu görülmektedir.Bu çalışmada girişimcilik yetkinliklerinin işletme performansına etkilerini ortaya koyarak, yetkinlikleringeliştirilmesi konusunda farkındalık oluşturmak amaçlanmıştır. Yetkinlik yaklaşımına dayalı geliştirilen teorikbir model çerçevesinde, fırsat, örgütlenme, ilişki, bağlılık (taahhüt) yetkinlikleri ve stratejik ve kavramsalyetkinlikler olmak üzere altı grup girişimcilik yetkinliği ile işletmelerin performansı ilişkisinin hipotezlerle testedilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bunun için Konya İli sınırlarında yer alan işletmelerin sahibi girişimcilere yönelik,girişimcilik yetkinlikleri ve işletme performasını ölçen sorulardan oluşan anketler ulaştırılmıştır. Firma sahibigirişimcilerden geri dönüşü sağlanan 400 anketten 383 adedi değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmuştur. Toplananveriler üzerinden yapılan istatistiksel analizlerden SpearmanRho Korelasyon Analizi ve Basit DoğrusalRegresyon Analizi sonuçlarına göre, girişimcilik yetkinliğinin ve alt boyutlarının (fırsat yetkinlikleri,organizasyon yetkinlikleri, ilişki yetkinlikleri, bağlılık (taahhüt) yetkinlikleri, stratejik yetkinlikler vekavramsal yetkinlikler) işletme performansı üzerinde pozitif bir etkiye sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir.
