Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the change which was created by the crisis as an environmental variable in the competition strategies of yacht charter agencies. For this purpose, data were collected from 73 agencies via questionnaire in Fethiye, Bodrum and Marmaris, that are the three major yacht tourism centers in the South Aegean region. In this study, competition strategies were measured based on Porter's generic competition strategies as "differentiation, cost leadership and focus". A paired t-test was conducted to test the change in competition strategies affected by the crisis. The results of the study show that the cost leadership strategy has changed significantly over the past three years, and that agencies tend to be more cost leaders as an indication of firm behavior. In the differentiation and focus strategy, there has not been any change that will make a significant difference.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, çevresel bir değişken olarak krizin yat kiralama acentalarının rekabet stratejilerinde yarattığı değişimi incelemektir. Bu amaçla, Güney Ege yöresindeki üç önemli yat turizmi merkezi olan Fethiye, Bodrum ve Marmaris’teki 73 acentadan anket tekniği ile veri toplanmıştır. Çalışmada, rekabet stratejileri, Porter’ın jenerik rekabet stratejileri esas alınarak “farklılaştırma, maliyet liderliği ve odaklanma” olarak ölçülmüştür. Krizin etkisiyle rekabet stratejilerinde yaşanan değişimi test etmek için paired t-testi yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuçları, son üç yıl içinde maliyet liderliği stratejisinin anlamlı fark yaratacak derecede değiştiğini ve acentaların firma davranışı olarak daha fazla maliyet lideri olmaya yöneldiklerini göstermektedir. Farklılaştırma ve odaklanma stratejisinde ise, anlamlı fark yaratacak bir değişim yaşanmamıştır.
