Article Ambidexterity in Green Innovation: Organisational Consequences of Exploration and Exploitation Strategies(Istanbul Management Journal, 2025-12-31) Mutlu, CeyhanGlobal warming and climate change are driving organisations to pursue green innovation efforts, which aim to reduce environmental impact and achieve sustainability goals. However, green innovations can be costly and difficult for organisations to implement in the short term. This study explores the concept of green organisational ambidexterity, defined as the simultaneous pursuit of exploration and exploitation strategies in green innovation activities. Organisations can create novel and innovative green products and processes as well as improve existing green products and processes by combining exploration and exploitation strategies. This situation provides organisations to compete more strategically in the long and short term while also being more environmentally friendly. The purpose of this study is to reveal the theoretical and conceptual framework of the concept of green organisational ambidexterity by reviewing the research conducted within the scope of the literature review and addressing its effects on organisations and sectors. In this regard, proposals are made to advance the body of literature addressing the concepts of green psychological capital, digital-technology adaptation, green strategic leadership and green strategic tension. The findings are intended to serve as a guideline for future research.Article Ambidexterity in Green Innovation: Organisational Consequences of Exploration and Exploitation Strategies(Istanbul Management Journal, 2025-12-31) Mutlu, Ceyhan; Bakoğlu, RefikaGlobal warming and climate change are driving organisations to pursue green innovation efforts, which aim to reduce environmental impact and achieve sustainability goals.

This function of digital assistants leads to privacy concerns, whereas brand trust becomes a mitigating factor in accepting digital voice assistants. Therefore, this study utilizes Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and extends the model by integrating privacy concern and brand trust. Data were collected from participants with tools integrated with DVAs and analyzed via structural equation modeling. Results demonstrate that privacy concern has a negative role, while perceived ease of use, brand trust, perceived usefulness, and attitude have positive roles in determining the usage intention of digital voice assistants. The findings also underline that privacy concern is the most important predictor of the intention to use DVAs and brand trust decreases privacy concern. Yapay zeka destekli dijital sesli asistanlar (DVA'lar), kullanıcı deneyimini iyileştirmek amacıyla veri toplama, kullanma ve depolama işlevlerine sahiptirler. Ancak bu işlevler, gizlilik endişelerini de beraberinde getirmektedir. Bu bağlamda marka güveni, kullanıcıların DVA'ları benimsemesinde dengeleyici bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Teknoloji Kabul Modeli (TAM) temel alınmış; modele gizlilik endişesi ve marka güveni değişkenleri eklenerek genişletilmiştir. DVA entegre araçlarla katılımcılardan toplanan veriler, yapısal eşitlik modellemesi ile analiz edilmiştir. Sonuçlar, gizlilik endişesinin kullanım niyeti üzerinde olumsuz bir etki yarattığını; buna karşılık algılanan kullanım kolaylığı, marka güveni, algılanan fayda ve olumlu tutumun kullanım niyetini artırdığını ortaya koymaktadır. Ayrıca, gizlilik endişesinin DVA kullanım niyetinin en güçlü belirleyicisi olduğu, marka güveninin ise bu endişeyi azaltarak kabul sürecini kolaylaştırdığı tespit edilmiştir.Article The Mediating Role of Cultural Intelligence in The Relationship Between Personality and Cross Cultural Adaptability: A Research on Graduate Students(2024-01-24) Arıkboğa, Fatma Şebnem; Mutlu, CeyhanKüreselleşme hızlandıkça ve ülkelerin çevresel koşulları değiştikçe, bireylerin yaşam standartlarını arttırmak amacıyla, farklı ülkelerde yaşama isteği artmaktadır. Bu istek bireylerde her ne kadar güçlü olsa da, farklı bir kültüre adaptasyon sağlamak hiç de kolay olmamaktadır. Bireylerin kültürlerarası adaptasyonlarını sağlamasına etki eden çeşitli faktör bulunmaktadır. Bu faktörlerin başında bireylerin farklı kültürden bireyleri anlamasını ve o kültüre uygun davranmasında önemli bir rol oynayan kültürel zeka kavramı gelmektedir. Kültürel zeka analizi, bireylerin bu zorlukların üstesinden gelmesine veya bu zorluklardan kaçınmasına yardımcı olmak için önemli bir konumda olmaktadır. Kültürel zekanın yanı sıra bireylerin kişilikleri de sonuçlara önemli derecede etki eden bir diğer unsur olarak ele alınmaktadır. Bireylerin kişilik yapılarının analizi, bu bireylerin farklı kültürlere adaptasyon sağlayıp sağlayamayacakları hakkında ön görüler ortaya koyabilmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, İşletme lisansüstü öğrencilerinin yurtdışında yaşama niyetleri bağlamında, kültürlerarası adaptasyon, kültürel zeka ve kişilik kavramlarını ele alarak, bu üç kavram arasındaki ilişkinin boyutunu ortaya koymaktır.Article Building The Capabilities For Managing Uncertainty In Entrepreneurial Contexts: A Sensemaking Approach(Eurasian Journal of Researches in Social and Economics (EJRSE), 2019) Karadağ, HandeHow entrepreneurs act upon the uncertainties from the initiation to the finalization of the entrepreneurial venture creation process is an area where the amount of conceptual and empirical research studies is significantly limited. In this study, a novel approach to entrepreneurial cognition is introduced for filling this gap in the literature, by employing the elements of sensemaking theory to entrepreneurial cognition, proposing that entrepreneurs engage in a purposed sensemaking process during their entrepreneurial experience. As individual entrepreneurs develop certain skills and capabilities for succeeding in their entrepreneurial acts, the study further argues that entrepreneurial sensemaking can be regarded as an important capability which can be improved to carry the individual entrepreneur from chaos towards a more organized condition. With its unique approach to how high levels of uncertainty are perceived and acted upon by the entrepreneurs, the study is expected to make a significant contribution to both sensemaking and entrepreneurship literature.Article A Glance at Growth Accounting: Cobb-Douglas Model for G-7 (1950-2018)(European Journal of Digital Economy Research, 2014-07-01) İzgi, Berna Balcı; Karadağ, Hande; Beceren, ErtanIn this article, we inspected the impact of human capital on economic growth by estimating a Cobb-Douglas model for G-7 countries during (1950-2018). Our results show that, human capital has a positive impact on economic growth in the long-run with a contribution of 0.44% whereas evidence is only found for physical capital for the short-run. While the current data for G-7 with the application of pmg reveals that tfp was insignificant.Article Dynamic capabilities and entrepreneurial management: A review of selected works of David J. Teece(Journal of Social and Administrative Sciences, 2019) Karadağ, HandeDynamic capabilities framework which is the combination of internal processes, resource utilization and structural transformations that have to be strategically formulated and managed for gaining sustained competitive advantage in rapidly changing environments became largely influential not only in strategic management field but had a significant impact on several areas of management (Di Stefano, et al., 2010, Barreto, 2010). After the introduction of the dynamic capabilities approach, the contributions from the initiator of the approach David J. Teece and several other important strategy and management scholars gave way to the development of a new capabilities theory of the ‚innovative‛ firm as well the evolution of the fresh domain of entrepreneurial management. The current review aims to analyze the antecedents of dynamic capabilities and the development of this new theory through the works of David J. Teece and acknowledge his crucial contribution to fields of management, strategy, and entrepreneurship.Article Real-Estate Entrepreneurship from Baumol's Productive and Unproductive Typology: A Contestable Markets Approach(EMAJ: Emerging Markets Journal, 2022-08-17) İzgi, Berna BalcıThe role of innovation in economic development has long been a topic of discussion among economists. Despite that, the economic pay-off mechanisms which support or hinder innovative entrepreneurial acts, particularly in the emerging economy context are significantly underexplored in academic studies. In this study, we aim to fill this important gap in the literature by taking Baumol’s contestable markets theory and the typology of productive and unproductive entrepreneurship. As Baumol has advocated, the economies that offer higher pay-offs to productive entrepreneurial acts are more likely to thrive mainly due to the increased capacity of economic growth, while developing and poor economies struggle. In this study, we posit that in the developing and emerging market contexts, formal policies are claimed to prioritize the production of more innovative and productive start-ups and a climate that supports and fosters productive entrepreneurial acts. Despite that, there are still major administrative, social and cultural barriers towards creation of innovative start-ups and a productive entrepreneurship ecosystem. Here, continuing political, economic and social support towards unproductive entrepreneurship acts, in particular real-estate entrepreneurship emerges as one of the main factors that hinder the flow of funds towards innovation and technology. We thus argue that, being unable to balance the role of these unproductive entrepreneurial acts with productive ones in economy significantly deteriorates the sustainable economic growth and a high standard of living in emerging and developing economy contexts. In the implications section, several precautions and support mechanisms for overcoming the barriers towards productive entrepreneurship are presented and discussed.
