Yıl 2022, Cilt: 5 Sayı: 2, 98 - 109, 31.12.2022

Öz

In this study, the importance of making effective decisions in organizations will be focused and the major steps of the effective decision-making process will be outlined. In addition, a conceptual framework will be provided based on the previous studies and literature in order to emphasize the crucial role of the effective decision making in organizations. First, a decision is an important step of selection or choice of one action from several alternative options and it is clear that decision-making is the essence of management and organizations should make decisions continually at every level and these decisions vary from managerial or strategic to routine operational decisions. However, these decisions must be capable of being implemented though they are at the individual or organizational level and should persuade other individuals as they are feasible and rational in organizations. Additionally, an organization can accomplish its short-term and long-term organizational goals through an effective decision process by avoiding solely relying on intuition or "gut reaction." Hence, decision-making is not a random process, and before making important decisions, it is important to seek good information and to avoid various challenges and common pitfalls because decisions have a long-term effect on employee motivation, organizational goals and performance. In sum, in this study, the importance of effective decision-making process will be analyzed within the concept of stupid puma syndrome and the major steps of decision-making process in organizations will be outlined.

Örgütlerde Aptal Puma Sendromundan Kaçınma: Etkin Karar Vermenin Önemi

Yıl 2022, Cilt: 5 Sayı: 2, 98 - 109, 31.12.2022

Öz

Bu çalışmada, örgütlerde etkin karar vermenin önemi vurgulanacak ve etkin karar vermenin önemli adımlarının ana hatları çizilecektir. Buna ek olarak, örgütlerde etkili karar vermenin önemli rolüne vurgu yapmak için önceki çalışmaları ve literatürü temel alan kavramsal bir çerçeve sunulacaktır. İlk olarak, karar, birkaç alternatif arasından, bir tercih veya seçim yapılması aşamanın önemli bir adımıdır ve karar vermenin yönetimin özü olduğu açıktır ve örgütler her seviyede sürekli olarak karar almak durumundadır ve kararlar günlük stratejik operasyonel kararlardan, genel yönetimsel kararlara kadar farklılık göstermektedir. Bununla birlikte, bu kararlar, bireysel veya örgütsel düzeylerde de olsa uygulanabilir olmalı ve örgütler için makul ve mantıklı olduğu konusunda ikna edici olmalıdırlar. Bunlara ek olarak, bir örgüt kısa ve uzun vadeli örgütsel hedeflerine etkin karar alma sürecini takip ederek ve sadece sezgilerine güvenerek karar almaktan kaçınarak ulaşabilir. Bu yüzden, karar vermek rastgele bir süreç değildir ve önemli kararlar alınmasından önce, gerçek bilgiyi araştırma, çeşitli sorunlardan ve yaygın gizli tehlikelerden kaçınmak önemlidir çünkü kararların işgören motivasyonu, örgütsel hedefler ve performansı üzerinde uzun vadeli etkileri vardır. Özetle, bu çalışmada, etkin karar vermenin önemi aptal puma sendromu bağlamında irdelenecek ve örgütlerde karar alma süreçlerinin önemli aşamalarını ortaya konacaktır.
