Journal Title: International Journal of Social Sciences and Education - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to emphasize the significance of corporation culture in increasing the organizational performance in sports high schools in Turkey. “Competing Values Model (CVM)” scale, which was developed by Cameron and Quinn (2006) and later translated into Turkish and authentically validated by Kılıç (2010), was employed to designate the opinions of the study group. The sample group consists of 114 actively working teachers in sports high schools from the cities of Sivas (23 teachers), Giresun (19 teachers), Trabzon (14 teachers), Uşak (13 teachers), Diyarbakır (13 teachers), İstanbul (11 teachers), Erzincan (10 teachers), Elazığ (6 teachers) and Hatay (5 teachers). In the analysis of data, frequency and percentage calculations were performed to demonstrate the distribution of the social-demographic variables. In terms of the mean points of the scale, the t-test was performed to evaluate the differentiation levels according to independent variables and a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed in the analysis of the means of more than two groups. Kruscal Wallis and Mann-Whitney U test was performed for non-parametric values. As a result of the study, meaningful differences were observed in education level, age and service time in school variables in the clan sub-dimension of CVM scale. In the sub-dimensions of adhocracy and hierarchy, meaningful differences were observed in service year variable. In the market sub-dimension, no meaningful difference was observed according to variables. In the overall analysis of the study findings, it was concluded that the study group generally expressed positive opinions for the statements and the organizational culture in sports high schools is at a satisfactory level.
