Öğe Are you ready for the global change? Multicultural personality and readiness for organizational change(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2016) Caliskan, Sibel; Isik, IdilPurpose - The purpose of this paper is to investigate employee readiness for their organizations' global change and the predictive effect of their personality and perception of change. Design/methodology/approach - Participants were from work groups that are known to have various levels of contribution to the globalization process in a retail company. Following focus group study, surveys of multicultural personality (MP), organizational change (OC) perception, and individual readiness for global change were conducted. Findings - Results showed that the participants from the work groups with higher involvement in global work evaluated themselves more in terms of MP characteristics, with a more positive perception of OC process and climate, and more readiness for change. There was no effect of MP on OC perception or readiness for change. Perceived OC partially mediated the relationship between the perceived global content of the job and individual readiness for change. Research limitations/implications - The sample is relatively small which limits the external validity of the findings. Practical implications - Results revealed the importance of recruiting the right employees and corporate communication during the globalization process among all work groups. Originality/value - This study is one of the first that integrates OC in the process of globalization with employees' MP. Further, it elaborates on how the perception of and readiness for OC differs across diverse work units throughout the globalization process.Öğe Organizations and Exposure to Trauma at a Collective Level: The Taxonomy of Potentially Traumatic Events(Igi Global, 2017) Isik, IdilOrganizational trauma is a contemporary construct that highlights long-lasting negative psychological consequences of various internal and external events that overwhelm the capacity of people in organizational settings. This chapter proposes that a typology of potentially traumatic events (PTEs) and the taxonomy of these events' attributes can be developed by conducting a comprehensive literature review. The search of databases for the period of 1995-2016 revealed 81 articles on which inductive qualitative content analysis was conducted. Analysis brought three PTEs: events resulting from organizational processes; adverse experiences in trauma-prone occupations/sectors, and catastrophic events caused by economic/social/environmental conditions. These events' attributes appeared distinctive under three themes: features of traumatic events; human behaviours; internal and external organizational environment. As the final step, the proposed taxonomy was applied to real traumatic business cases happened in 2015 and early 2016 so that the taxonomic model was tested.Öğe Preference for modernization is universal, but expected modernization trajectories are culturally diversified: A nine-country study of folk theories of societal development(Wiley, 2022) Krys, Kuba; Capaldi, Colin A.; Uchida, Yukiko; Cantarero, Katarzyna; Torres, Claudio; Isik, Idil; Yeung, Victoria Wai LanCultural sensitivity in societal development has been advocated for since at least the 1960s but has remained understudied. Our goal is to address this gap and to investigate folk theories of societal development. We aimed to identify both universal and culturally specific lay beliefs about what constitutes good societal development. We collected data from 2,684 participants from Japan, Hong Kong (China), Poland, Turkey, Brazil, France, Nigeria, the USA, and Canada. We measured preferences for 28 development aims. We used multidimensional scaling, analysis of variance, and pairwise comparisons to identify universal and country-specific preferences. Our results demonstrate that what people understand as modernization is fairly universal across countries, but specific pathways of development and preferences towards these pathways tend to vary between countries. We distinguished three facets of modernization-foundational aims (e.g., trust, economic development), welfare aims (e.g., poverty eradication, education), and inclusive aims (e.g., openness, gender equality)-and incorporated them into a folk meta-theory of modernization. In all nine countries, the three facets of modernization were preferred more than conventional aims (e.g., military, demographic growth). We propose a method of implementing our findings into a culturally sensitive modernization index.Öğe THE ROLE OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS IN DEVELOPING A CSR PRONE SOCIAL IDENTITY The UN Global Compact(Information Age Publishing-Iap, 2018) Cleve, Robert A.; Czukor, Gergely; Isik, Idil[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Sexual Identities in the Workplace: Avoiding Organizational Trauma When Disclosure Occurs - Current Perspectives(Igi Global, 2017) Cleve, Robert A.; Isik, Idil; Pecanha, Viviane de CastroThe global progression of human rights advocating for marginalized communities, especially LGBTQ, has seen tremendous change over the past several decades, including the conditions for disclosure of sexual identity in the workplace. The decision-making process of disclosure and the necessity for others to know is key to understanding how best to support and address the potential organizational trauma that may result. Not all disclosure of minority identity is negative and the availability of positive policy development within organizations can assist in smooth transitions toward more equal inclusion and dispel previous heteronormative and heterosexist ideologies. Through increased knowledge about the LGBTQ community and case analysis, a cross cultural lens will be utilized from Brazil, Turkey and the U.S.; prominent sexual identity disclosure perspectives for numerous occupations, as well as recommendations for systemic awareness and change will be offered.
