Özet

Liderlik kavramı her geçen gün daha fazla ilgi gören bir kavram haline gelmiştir. Liderlik, örgütsel literatürde, yönetim disiplininde ve diğer birçok alanda en çok araştırılan konuların başında yer almaktadır. Liderliğin, performans gibi temel örgütsel konular ve diğer birçok bireysel, grup ve örgütsel göstergeler için çok önemli olduğu kabul edilmektedir. En başından itibaren liderlik olgusu mistik anlamlar içeren bir kavram olmuştur. Liderlerin diğer insanlardan çok farklı kişiler olduğu ve farklı özelliklere sahip oldukları düşünülmektedir. Bu nedenle diğer insanlardan daha yetkin ve etkileyici olduklarına inanılır. Ancak birçok çalışma, liderlerin yalnızca olumlu, ideal özelliklerden oluşmadığını göstermiştir. Hatta liderlerin bazı işlevsiz karanlık tarafları bile olduğu ortaya konmuştur. Bu yönleri nedeniyle bazen kendilerini ve örgütlerini başarıya ulaştırmada güçlükler yaşarlar. Karanlık liderlik olgusu literatürde birçok kavramla ifade edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Ancak özünde, karanlık liderler, güç, başarı ve kontrol peşinde koşma ile karakterize edilen ve psikolojik manipülasyon araçlarını ustaca kullanabilen ve başkaları üzerinde kontrol sağlayabilen liderlerdir. Bu çalışma, bu olgunun daha iyi anlaşılması motivasyonuyla yürütülmüştür.

Abstract

The concept of leadership has become a concept that attracts more and more attention with each passing day. Leadership is one of the most researched subjects in organizational literature, management discipline and many other fields. It is recognized that leadership is crucial for key organizational issues such as performance, as well as many other individual, group, and organizational indicators. The concept of leadership always includes a mystical meaning. It is thought that leaders are very different people from other people and have different characteristics. Because of this, it is believed that they are more competent and impressive than other people. However, many studies have shown that leaders do not consist of only positive, ideal characteristics. They even have some dysfunctional dark sides. Because of these aspects, they sometimes experience difficulties in bringing themselves and their organizations to success. The phenomenon of dark leadership has been tried to be expressed with many concepts in the literature. However, in essence, dark leaders are leaders who are characterized by the pursuit of power, success, and control, and are able to deftly use tools of psychological manipulation and control over others. This study was conducted with the motivation to better understand this phenomenon.
