    Bir Sosyal Değişim Katalizörü Olarak Sosyal Girişimcilik
    (2021-12-01T00:00:00Z) Kati, Beyza Gökçin; Toker, Kerem; TOKER, KEREM
    Bu çalışmanın amacı, sosyal girişimcilik kavramını incelemek, tartışmak ve uygulama örnekleri ile sosyal girişimcilik alanında farkındalık yaratmaktır. Bu amaçla, çalışmada ilk olarak literatür incelenmiş ve sosyal girişimcilik kavramının farklı anlamları tartışılmıştır. Ayrıca, sosyal girişimciliğin amacı, önemi, boyutları ve faaliyet alanları açıklanmıştır. Ardından, geleneksel girişimcilik ve sosyal girişimcilik arasında karşılaştırma yapılmıştır. Sosyal girişimciliğe yönelik yapılan eleştiriler, sosyal girişimcilik eğitimi ve toplumda oluşan sosyal etki incelenmiştir. Sonrasında ise, Türkiye’deki sosyal girişimcilik uygulamaları detaylı anlatım ve örneklerle açıklanmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, Türkiye’deki sosyal girişimcilik faaliyetlerinin 2000 yılından sonra artış gösterdiğini fakat kavramın herkes tarafından bilinmediğini ve bir kavram karmaşası yaşandığını göstermektedir. Son olarak, günümüzde sosyal girişimcilik, işletmeler ve bireyler bazında desteklenmektedir. Yapılan projelerle birlikte sosyal girişimcilik alanı daha da gelişmekte ve başta gençler olmak üzere sosyal girişimciliğe yönelen girişimci sayısında artış görülmektedir.

    A Catalyst for Social Economy: Society 5.0
    (Istanbul University Publication, 2023-02-01) Toker K.; TOKER, KEREM
    As our planet moves towards the middle of the 21st century, it faces a dizzying digital transformation process. This transformation brings along with it unique and innovative solutions to numerous social, organizational, and managerial issues. The most tangible of these solutions so far is the vision of Society 5.0 announced by the Japanese government in 2016. Within this scope, the purpose of this chapter is to develop conceptual insight into the reasons for the emergence, components, and goals of Society 5.0. Up-to-date research and current reports on the topic have been examined in this context, and a conceptual framework is formed. The findings show that many digital tools of Society 5.0 are already used in economies, but policymakers discuss these tools’ human-centered reuse. As a result, a positive futuristic perspective has been drawn that humanity will continue its life on a more habitable planet for decades to come and unite digital and physical space.

    From Social Sustainability to Social Entrepreneurship: A Path for Social Value Creation
    (IGI Global, 2022-12-01) Toker K.; TOKER, KEREM
    Despite the discussion of social sustainability, which has been a crucial component of sustainable development for decades, unfortunately, the desired successful outcomes have not been realized in practice. This failure caused the need to examine the concept of social sustainability differently than ever before. Social entrepreneurship is a valuable tool to meet this need. Concordantly, this chapter purposes to evaluate the relations between social sustainability and social entrepreneurship by comprehensively analyzing them. Discussing this relationship and proposing a new perspective will support overcome theoretical dilemmas and practical struggles. Therefore, the concept of sustainability was explained in detail through a wide literature review, and then the concept of social entrepreneurship was examined, and links, similarities, and gaps were revealed between the two concepts. As a result, the effective implementation of social sustainability policies depends on the social impact and value created by social entrepreneurship.

    Non-profit Organizations: A Path for Social Economy
    (Istanbul University Publication, 2023-02-01) Toker K.; TOKER, KEREM
    The structural basis of the social economy is non-profit organizations. Therefore, understanding the structure and management principles of non-profits is essential to create a global economy based on solidarity. However, despite the critical importance and role of non-profit organizations, studies on non-profit organizations are not holistic from a managerial perspective. For this reason, a holistic approach that covers all economic, political, and social components is needed when analyzing the social economy and NPOs Toward this aim, in this section, nonprofits are examined based on their organizational structure and management principles. This examination will compare for-profit and non-profits organizations’ mission, organizational structure, performance criteria, etc. The lack of profit in non-profit organization’s (NPO) mission stands out as the most crucial difference that shapes their management characteristics and organizational structure.Keywords: Social Organizations, Social Economy, Organizational Structure, Non-profit Organizations

    Evaluation of circular economy business models for SMEs using spherical fuzzy TOPSIS: an application from a developing countries’ perspective
    (2022-01-01T00:00:00Z) Toker, Kerem; Görener, Ali; TOKER, KEREM
    While the circular economy has recently been the subject of considerable theoretical debate, the discussion has yielded limited insight into how its implementation should look. Developing countries’ inadequate regulation and policy hinder the circular economy’s implementation in small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with resource, strategy, and skill constraints. Therefore, circular economy business models (CEBMs) support SMEs in overcoming the risks of implementation. However, SMEs often struggle to decide which CEBM to use. This study aims to enable developing countries’ SMEs to choose the most appropriate CEBM using the spherical fuzzy TOPSIS method, which is an extremely new method for solving decision-making problems. The four main CEBMs most frequently encountered in the literature and practice have been extensively analysed. The results suggest that the resource recovery model is the most appropriate model for transitioning to a circular economy for SMEs in developing countries. Circular supply is the second suitable business model. Following these stages, after the organisation reaches a specifc level of CE maturity, the product life extension and the product–service system model should be applied at the last stage. A comparative assessment and a sensitivity analysis are conducted to test the proposed methodology’s robustness and reliability. The results opened up a space for discussion and for new thoughts that could improve the scope of the CEBMs theory. Using all CEBMs together, we concluded that the transition to CE will not be successful for SMEs. The order in which CEBMs should be applied in the transition to CE has been determined. Their scope, risks, and resources needed were correlated with these data from the feld. This practical implementation guide, which we recommend based on theoretical foundations, ofers administrators and future researchers original insights.

    Do Employees’ Emotions Contaminate Organisations? The Relationship between Emotional Contagion and Organisational Identification
    (2022-09-01T00:00:00Z) Toker, Kerem; Görener, Ali; TOKER, KEREM
    This article presents empirical research that aimed to determine the direction and strength of the relationships between emotional contagion and organisational identification. Our study examined the effect of aviation sector employees’ emotional contagion levels on organisational identification and the moderating role of career characteristics, such as age differences and seniority, in this effect. Data collected from 296 aviation employees were analyzed using SPSS 25 and SPSS Process Macro programs for determining moderating effects. The findings revealed that emotional contagion has a positive and significant effect on organisational identification. It has been determined that individuals’ age and seniority differences have a moderating role in the effect of emotional contagion on organisational identification. The fact that the scope of the research is a single sector and organisation hinders the findings’ generalizability. Additionally, the cross-sectional design limits the ability to explain the cause-and-effect relationships between psychological factors. The results proved that positive emotions affect individuals faster than negative emotions and are more effective on OI. Hence, the establishment of an organisational climate dominated by feelings of love and happiness and devoid of feelings of fear and anger is recommended for managers seeking to foster OI. By revealing the implicit relationships among the concepts with empirical evidence, we aim to fill a significant gap, particularly with respect to organisational psychology, and to represent new insights to scholars and practitioners.
