“…Planning flexibility and participation from strategic management practices have a significant impact on environmental process innovation. The effect of strategic management on process innovation is consistent with the findings of Çetinkaya and Gülbahar's (2019) study. Since environmental process innovation mostly involves the improvement of production processes, the contributions of lower-level employees are needed more than product innovation.…”
In order for firms to have competitive advantage, it is necessary to determine and implement futureoriented strategies as well as to carry out daily activities effectively and efficiently. Today, the environmental issue is seen as a competitive tool for most firms. In order to use this competitive tool, it is necessary to focus on innovation studies and these studies must be "sustainable", just like the main theme on which the environmental issue is focused. The sustainability requires looking to the future from today.Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to determine the effect of strategic management practices on environmental innovation. In addition, it can be said that at the end of the study, information will be obtained on whether environmental innovation is considered as a strategic decision by firms. For this purpose, data were collected from 32 small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMEs) operating in Kayseri (Turkey) through a questionnaire. The collected data were subjected to correlation analysis and regression analysis. The findings of the study showed that only participation in strategic management practices has significant effect on environmental product innovation. Planning flexibility and participation have significant effects on environmental process innovation.

“…"İşletmelerin bu konularda doğru karar alabilmesi işletmelerin geleceğini etkiler." (Çetinkaya ve Gülbahar, 2019). Hizmet çalışanlarının cinsiyetleriyle, zorunlu vatandaşlık düzeyleri ile çalışan motivasyonu ölçeğinde yer alan boyutlar arasında anlamlı bir ilişki yoktur.…”
ÖZBu araştırmanın amacı hizmet sektöründe faaliyet gösteren bireylerin zorunlu vatandaşlık durumlarının çalışan motivasyonu üzerine etkisini belirlemektir. Araştırmada ilişkisel tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini Akdeniz Bölgesinde beş yıldızlı otel işletmelerindeki çalışanlar oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın örneklem grubunu ise Akdeniz Bölgesinde faaliyet gösteren 21 tane beş yıldızlı otel işletmesi çalışanları oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada zorunlu vatandaşlık ölçeği ve çalışan motivasyonu ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Veriler normal dağılım gösterdiği için araştırmada parametrik testler uygulanmıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen verilere tanımlayıcı istatistiksel analizler, t-testi ve ANOVA istatistiksel analizleri yapılmıştır. Hizmet çalışanları zorunlu vatandaşlık düzeylerinin yüksek olduğunu buna paralel olarak motivasyonlarının düştüğünü belirtmektedirler. Hizmet çalışanlarının cinsiyetleriyle zorunlu vatandaşlık düzeyleri ile çalışan motivasyonu ölçeğinde yer alan boyutlar arasında anlamlı bir ilişkinin olmadığı belirlenmiştir. Hizmet çalışanlarının mesleki kıdemleri ile zorunluk vatandaşlık ölçeğinde yer alan maddeler arasında anlamlı bir ilişki yoktur. Hizmet çalışanlarının mesleki kıdemleri ile başarı boyutu arasında anlamlı bir ilişkinin olduğu görülmektedir. Hizmet çalışanları zorunlu vatandaşlık düzeylerinin artması halinde motivasyonlarının azalacağını düşünmektedir.
“…In order to be innovative, employees' IWB is crucial because employees carry out innovations during uncertain times where change, novelty, and challenge are needed (e.g. pandemic business context) (Çetinkaya and Gülbahar, 2019). Within this respect, West and Farr (1990) described IWB as employees' intentional and voluntary introduction and/ or application of new ideas, products, processes, and procedures to the organizations and they initially stated two stages for IWB: "idea generation" and "idea implementation".…”
Section: Innovative Work Behaviors and Workplace Spiritualitymentioning
Recent literature has shown the contributions of positivity in organizations, but less is known about the impact of spirituality and safety feelings as an extension of positive psychology on individuals' innovative work behaviors. Considering the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, it is suggested that the conditions encouraging employees' perceptions and attitudes as well as their innovative work behaviors (IWBs) have been changed. Based on the positive psychology approach, workplace spirituality and psychological safety are seen as important factors on employees' IWBs. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationships among perceived workplace spirituality, psychological safety, and employees' IWBs within the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Employees working in different private sectors in Istanbul (N= 251) participated in the current research. The statistical analyses revealed that workplace spirituality contributed to employees' innovative behaviors, and psychological safety fully mediated this relationship. Based on the findings, practical and conceptual implications of this study are discussed and future directions are presented.
