Özet

Bu çalışma, kuruma yeni gelenlerin uyguladıkları proaktif sosyalizasyon taktiklerin örgüte bağlılığa etkisinin ve bu etkide sosyal bütünleşmenin aracı rolünün irdelenmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Gruman vd. (2006) tarafından yapılan araştırmanın bir devam çalışması niteliğindeki çalışma kapsamında İstanbul ilinde on beş farklı sektörde 371 kişi tarafından cevaplanan anketler değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmuş ve yapılan analiz sonucunda; anketi cevaplayan kuruma yeni gelen çalışanların uyguladıkları proaktif sosyalizasyon taktiklerinden geri bildirim arayışı, iş değişim müzakereleri, üst ilişkileri, pozitif bakış açısı, genel sosyalleşme, sosyal ağ kurma gibi taktikler, yeni gelenlerin örgüte bağlılıkları üzerinde pozitif ve anlamlı bir etkiye sahipken; yine bu taktiklerden iş değişim müzakereleri, geribildirim arayışı, sosyal ağ kurma ve pozitif bakış açısının sosyal bütünleşme üzerinde pozitif ve anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olduğu ortaya koyulmuştur. Araştırmada aynı zamanda, iş değişim müzakereleri, geribildirim arayışı ve pozitif bakış gibi proaktif sosyalizasyon taktiklerinin örgüte bağlılığa etkisinde sosyal bütünleşmenin kısmi aracı etkiye sahip olduğu görülmüştür.
