Abstract

The aim of this study is to expand and develop the knowledge in this field by applying the psychological empowerment-organizational identification relationship to a local government unit personnel. In this context, a survey was conducted with a sample of 474 people, consisting of a district municipality employee, and the subject was examined. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that psychological empowerment had a positive effect on organizational identification. Significant relationships were determined between the psychological empowerment and organizational identification perceptions of the participants and their status. Although there are some limited field studies in public institutions on the relationship between empowerment and identification, it is understood that empirical studies are not conducted in local governments. In this respect, a new dimension has been added to the literature with this study conducted in local governments.

Özet

Bu çalışma ile amaçlanan psikolojik güçlendirme-örgütsel özdeşleşme ilişkisini bir yerel yönetim birimi personeli üzerine uygulayarak bu alandaki bilgileri daha da genişletmek ve geliştirmektir. Bu çerçevede bir ilçe belediyesi çalışanlarından oluşan 474 kişilik bir örneklemle anket yapılarak konu incelenmiştir. Yapılan analizler sonucunda psikolojik güçlendirmenin örgütsel özdeşleşme üzerinde olumlu etkisi olduğu belirlenmiştir. Katılımcıların psikolojik güçlendirme ve örgütsel özdeşleşme algıları ile statüleri arasında anlamlı ilişkiler belirlenmiştir. Güçlendirme ile özdeşleşme arasındaki ilişkiye yönelik kamu kurumlarında sınırlı bazı saha araştırmaları olmakla birlikte yerel yönetimlerde ampirik araştırmaların yapılmadığı anlaşılmaktadır. Bu açıdan yerel yönetimlerde yapılan bu çalışma ile literatüre yeni bir boyut kazandırılmıştır.
