The aim of this study is to investigate whether it is possible to explain the innovative activities and performance of enterprises through the intellectual capital they adopt. In this context, in this study, the relationships between intellectual capital and innovation and manufacturing performance have been empirically examined. The normality of the data was checked using the statistical program, exploratory factor analysis was applied for construct validity, and correlation and regression analyzes were performed to test the hypotheses. The effect of intellectual capital on manufacturing performance and the mediating role of innovation were analyzed by using the Process Macro 4.0 plugin. The findings show that intellectual capital has a significant and positive effect on innovation. It shows that human and relational capitals, which are two of the intellectual capital dimensions, have a positive effect on innovation, but structural capital does not have a significant effect on innovation. Innovation, on the other hand, has been found to have a positive effect on manufacturing performance holistically (including all dimensions). In addition, it has been seen that innovation has a mediating role in the relationship between intellectual capital and manufacturing performance.
ÖZETStratejik yönlülük ve yenilikçilik stratejileri sürdürülebilir rekabet avantajı ve üstün performansın elde edilmesinde temel yaklaşımlardır. Stratejik yönetim alanındaki araştırmalar, bireysel stratejik yönelimleri (pazarlama yönelimi, girişimsel yönelim vb.) ve bunların yenilikçilik ve işletme performansı ile ilişkilerini araştırmıştır. Bununla birlikte, çok az çalışmada farklı stratejik yönelimlerin ve yenilikçiliğin işlete performansı üzerinde olan etkileri incelenmiştir. Bu nedenle stratejik yönelimler bütüncül olarak kaynak temelli görüş (KTG) çerçevesinde araştırmaya dâhil edilmiştir. Bu bağlamda çalışmada, stratejik yönelimler ve yenilikçilik ile finansal performans arasındaki ilişkiler ampirik olarak incelenmiştir. Veriler, İstanbul İli'nde yerleşik ve İstanbul Sanayi Odası'na (İSO) üye olan ilaç, tıbbi cihaz ve araç-gereç üreten 197'den işletmenin yöneticilerinden toplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler SPSS 22.0 yardımıyla normallik testi ile dağılımı kontrol edilmiş, yapı geçerliliği için açımlayıcı faktör analizi uygulanmış ve hipotezleri test etme amacıyla korelasyon ve regresyon analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bulgular, stratejik yönelimlerin bütün olarak (alt boyutları ile beraber) yenilikçilik üzerinde anlamlı ve pozitif etki ettiğini göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte stratejik yönelimlerin finansal performans üzerinde negatif bir etki ettiği bulunmuştur. Yenilikçilik ise finansal performans üzerinde pozitif bir etkiye sahipken alt boyutlarından ürün ve pazarlama yenilikçiliği pozitif; süreç ve organizasyonel yenilikçilik ise negatif yönlü bir etki etmektedir.
Throughout world economies, place and role of government and public sector have weakened over time, and on the other hand, efficiency, function, and responsibility of the business world and private sector have increased on the global market system. In addition, changing and developing socio-cultural structure has increased social sensitivity stakeholders' consciousness and importance given to ethic values due to increasing social necessities. Ethics turned out to be one of the most important management subjects for entities and governors in the business world. Ethical performance and ethical quality of enterprises are also important for social responsibility towards all stakeholders, enterprises' ethical values, reputation of the enterprise, increasing brand value of goods produced or service provided, providing trust and support of investors, customers, and the public. In this context, ethics, managerial ethics, institutionalization of ethics, and importance of ethical principles in enterprises in terms of corporate managerial principles are evaluated in this chapter.
