Refik BALAY a Harran University

AbstractThis research aims to examine the impact of faculty membersrsquo learning organization perceptions

to the organizational commitment through quantitative method The study group consists of 172faculty members working in two universities which are private (Zirve University) and public (Har-ran University) ones The research results show that faculty members working in private universityhave a higher level of learning organization perceptions than faculty members in public university

and feel a higher level of commitment to universities which they work Results also indicate thatprivate universityrsquos faculty membersrsquo perceptions of learning organization dimensions with per-ceptions of levels of organizational commitment (except for commitment based on compliance)in all dimensions were more positive than those working in public university Also the dimension

of reinforced employees from learning organization dimensions negatively predicts organizational

commitment based on compliance and the dimensions of team learning and shared systems po-sitively predict the organizational commitment based on identification Especially the dimensionof shared systems constitutes a more powerful effect on the commitment on the level of identifi-

cation Finally it was found that none of the learning organization dimensions made a significantimpact on organizational commitment based on internalization

Studes wthn the framework of organzatonal

most mportant tools n ths subject are control

and Organ983145zat983145onal Comm983145tment

In recent years organzatons are confronted wth

an ncreasngly rsng compettve pressure In or-

der to survve and ncrease nsttutonsrsquo compett-

veness one of the modern management concepts

developed n s learn983145ng organ983145zat983145on and another

s the concept of organ983145zat983145onal comm983145tment e

concept of learnng organzaton s predcated on

organzatons to create new knowledge to share

ths nformaton to convert ths nformaton nto

organzatonal knowledge to use on solvng the

problems (Garvn 1993 DBella amp Nevs 1998

Senge 1993) On the other hand t s not enoughto keep people physcally n the system Employees

may not ntegrate psychologcally wth the system

envronment and they jon n many actvtes es-

pecally learnng actvtes s stuaton can lead

to poor the systemrsquos psychologcal bond Accordng

to Katz and Kahn (1977) for the eectve funct-

onng of educatonal nsttutons of whch actvty

feld s to change and transform people most of the

members must be wllng to do more than most ofthe task defnton s requres the ntegraton of

employees wth organzaton Because accordng to

Ulrch (1998) those wth organzatonal commt-

ment become more ecent and act wth a sense of

hgher responsblty and loyalty

In prevous researches organzatonal commt-

ment was used as dependent varable n some

studes and ndependent varable n other stud-

es In these studes organzatonal commtment

s closely related to absence delay wthdrawal(Rechers 1985) motvaton (Becker et al 1996

In studes carred out n Turkey the organzatonal

commtment was examned as both ndependent

and the dependent varable For example Tuncer

organzatonal commtment of the sta of M-

sta had organzatonal commtment and they are

BALAY Effect of Learning Organization Perception to the Organizational Commitment

vronment Celep (1996) n hs study related to the

organzatonal commtment of the teachers n edu-

catonal organzatons t s found that teachers are

hghly dedcated to ther jobs and the dedcaton

s mostly related to the teachng professon rather

than school

Balay (2000) n hs study examnng the orga-

nzatonal commtment of the teachers and the

prncpals both n prvate and state hgh schools

t s found that teachers and prncpals n prvate

hgh schools had a hgher level of organzatonal

commtment than teachers and prncpals n state

hgh schools Uumlnuumlvar (2006) n hs study exam-

nng job-related characterstcs job satsfacton

the behavour of the organzatonal ctzenshp

and organzatonal commtment t s found that

organzatonal commtment and the behavour ofthe organzatonal ctzenshp have a sgnfcant

relatonshp Balay (2007) n hs study examnng

the organzatonal commtment of teachers n pr-

mary schools and ther conct management styles

t s found that organzatonal commtment based

on dentfcaton and nternalzaton s especally

related to the conct management styles of comp-

romsng and problem solvng and organzatonal

commtment based on complance s seen as the

only predctor of conct management strategy of

fosterng Yılmaz (2009) n hs study found a close

relatonshp between organzatonal commtment

job satsfacton and organzatonal creatvty Balay

and İpek (2010) n ther study examnng organ-

zatonal culture and organzatonal commtment of

prmary school teachers found a postve correla-

ton between complance based of organzatonal

commtment and the power and role culture and

a negatve correlaton between complance based

of organzatonal commtment and success and

supportve culture Organzatonal commtment atthe level of dentfcaton and nternalzaton sho-

wed a postve correlaton especally wth success

and supportve culture Turan Karadağ and Bektaş

(2011) focused on the relatonshp between organ-

zatonal commtment and learnng organzaton n

the structure of the unversty ey found a pos-

tve correlaton between learnng organzaton and

organzatonal commtment and t s found that

learnng organzaton subscales together predcted

32 percent of organzatonal commtment

On the other hand revewng the lterature t s

obvously seen that researchers such as Argyrs

merely focused on the learnng organzaton ssue

just at thnkng level on the contrary they gave

less mportance to emprcal studes However t

s not enough to just have the concept of learnng

organzaton ntellectually To answer the queston

of how to create a learnng organzaton there s a

need to fnd out the relaton between the conceptof learnng organzaton and the other concepts

related to t n the researches In ths context there

are a lmted numbers of researches carred out For

example Seymour (1992) found out a close relat-

onshp between learnng organzaton and qualty

approaches To hm n order to reveal the qualty

of the organzaton there s a need for the know-

ledge desre and the energy of everyone n the

organzaton Ccedilelk (1997) revealed a relatonshp

between organzatonal learnng and organzat-onal change Accordngly a successful change just

depends on the successful creaton of an organza-

tonal learnng culture To Kavrakoğlu (1996) the

roots of the concept of learnng organzaton are

based on system dynam983145cs System dynamcs s a

dscplne of seeng the whole To see the whole the-

re must be an mplemented shared learnng n all

of the system Fol and Lyles (1985) suggested that

factors such as envronment structure culture and

strategy nuenced the organzatonal learnng

and organzatonal learnng s aected n a postveway f ths organzaton and strateges are adopted

Toumlremen (2001) n hs study comparng prvate and

state hgh schools t s found that team workng n

prvate schools s at a more satsfactory level than

t s n state schools Also Yener (1997) found that

prvate schools are superor to the state schools n

promotng contnuous learnng Basım Şeşen and

Meydan (2009) n ther study carred out on the ef-

fect of the concept of learnng organzaton on the

entrepreneurshp n the organzaton they foundout that team learnng cross-connect systems and

supportve leadershp have a postve eect on ent-

repreneurshp wthn the organzaton

As can be seen clearly from the above nformaton

n the lterature t s seen that studes examnng the

mpact of the faculty membersrsquo percepton of lear-

nng organzaton to organzatonal commtment

n hgher educaton level s very lttle and n lmted

number of studes the learnng organzaton-orga-

was found that learnng organzaton perceptonsof faculty members workng n prvate unversty

fnally to establsh a supportve leadershp both n-

was observed that these seven oblgatory actons of

ons of learnng organzaton used n the researchWhen an evaluaton of ths nformaton s made

t can be sad that faculty members workng n pr-

vate unversty evaluate ther unversty n a better

poston than those workng n publc unversty

and ther hgh perceptons of learnng organzaton

s derved from ths

On the other hand t was seen that faculty mem-

bers workng n prvate unversty compared wth

colleagues workng n publc unversty generally

have shown more commtment to the unverstywhch they worked s result can be explaned

by unversty admnstratonsrsquo eorts to create a

sutable workng envronment for employees and

to develop commtment Frestone and Pennelrsquos

(1993) research fndngs support ths approach

Accordng to these authors a far and adequa-

learnng organzaton perceptons of employees

On the other hand n ths research perceptons of

the nsttuton reduces the sense of organzatonal

commtment the feelng of ntense concts occurs

snce employeesrsquo needs n such an envronment are

not met adequately by the managers and employe-

es cannot partcpate to decson-makng process

so that t can be put forward that lower levels of

organzatonal commtment (commtment basedon a hgher complance) are derved from t It s

due to ths reason that there s a sgnfcant rela-

tonshp between low organzatonal commtment

and bureaucratc structure of the unversty that

creates the percepton of pressure and oblgaton

Because poor communcaton bureaucratc ndo-

lence and slowness can be estmated to negatvely

aect the organzatonal commtment on rules and

regulatons reducng the satsfacton Indeed due

to the strongly centralzed structure of publc un-

verstes faculty members oen have bureaucratc

dsadvantages they cannot partcpate to decsons

related to ther work and they cannot use ther n-

tatve the percepton of commtment based on

hgher-level complance (lower dentfcaton and

nternalzaton) s derved from t to a large extent

e results of research done on ths subject are

n support of the above comments Accordng to

the lterature commtment based on complance

s related to weak and superfcal organzatonal

commtment Indvdual at ths level of commt-ment comply wth the organzaton but ths comp-

lance s not done voluntarly and wholeheartedly

In other words ths complance s not based on

convergence (dentfcaton) between ndvdual

and organzaton and the purpose and value share

(nternalzaton) Unwllng complance refers to

the oblgaton e oblgaton requres moblzng

the authorty rules and organzatonal procedures

erefore forced complance s based on control

not trust In ths way the organzaton assures the

realzaton of organzatonal behavor wthout ta-kng nto consderaton the nterests and expecta-

tons of employees (Brockner Tyler amp Schneder

1992 Handy 1985 Kelman 1958 OrsquoRelly amp Chat-

man 1986)

Smlar results were observed n studes of compa-

rson of prvate and publc schools on ther orga-

nzatonal commtment In Balayrsquos (2000) research

whch was examned school commtment of ad-

mnstrators and teachers workng n prvate and

publc hgh schools t was found that admnstra-tor and teachers of prvate hgh school felt more

commtment n both dentfcaton and nterna

lzaton dmensons than those workng n publc

hgh schools whereas t was found that admnst-

rator and teachers workng n publc hgh schools

felt more commtment manly commtment level

based on complance

In addton n ths research t was examned to

what extent faculty membersrsquo perceptons of lear-

nng organzaton predcted ther derent levels of

organzatonal commtment At the result of the re-

search t was seen that only renforced employees

dmenson from learnng organzaton dmensons

predcted organzatonal commtment based on

complance s result can be explaned by the

qualty of ther organzatonal commtment wth

strengthenng of employees wthn organzaton

Because Brockner et al (1992) have put forward

that commtment based on complance s related tothe lowest partcpaton and support of employees

Accordng to them employees at the complance

level superfcally support ther organzatons Ac-

cordng to Handy (1985) the operaton of the rules

and procedures s usually related to commtment

at the level of complance Complance s based

on control not trust As such t does not gve the

rght to choose to employees As t s clear from ths

nformaton commtment based on complance

(superfcal commtment) decreases n the system

of strengthened employees and employees tend to volunteer actvtes and ntegrate more wth the

system As long as employeesrsquo are trusted on cont-

rol on the level of organzaton decreases emplo-

yees partcpate more n decsons and fnally ther

organzatonal commtment are based on an nnate

adopton above and beyond a formal framework

On the other hand t was observed that dmen-

sons of team learn983145ng and shared systems predc-

ted postvely organzatonal commtment based

markable Studes n ths subject clearly quoted that

OrsquoRelly and Chatman (1986) put forward n ther

studes that commtment based on dentfcaton

s closely related to the desre to be close to others

n the organzaton ths stuaton creates a hgh

attractveness and satsfacton on ndvdual and

employees who assocate themselves wth other

members of the team act more responsbly

Fnally t was found that none of dmensons of

learnng organzaton has a sgnfcant mpact on

organzatonal commtment based on nternalza-

ton s result can be nterpreted that learnng

opportuntes provded to employees n the organ-

zaton are assocated wth especally whch level of

organzatonal commtment e research results

state that learnng opportuntes oered n the

organzaton consttute of commtment based on

commtment does not convert to nternalze f t s

not based on a normatve bass (Chatman 1991

Handy 1985 Wener 1982) Accordng to these

results t can be explaned that faculty members

are satsfed wth opportuntes of learnng and self

tutons s not at the level of nternalzaton whch

means ntegraton wth the organzatonrsquos goals and values

and Organ983145zat983145onal Comm983145tment

In recent years organzatons are confronted wth

an ncreasngly rsng compettve pressure In or-

der to survve and ncrease nsttutonsrsquo compett-

veness one of the modern management concepts

developed n s learn983145ng organ983145zat983145on and another

s the concept of organ983145zat983145onal comm983145tment e

concept of learnng organzaton s predcated on

organzatons to create new knowledge to share

ths nformaton to convert ths nformaton nto

organzatonal knowledge to use on solvng the

problems (Garvn 1993 DBella amp Nevs 1998

Senge 1993) On the other hand t s not enoughto keep people physcally n the system Employees

may not ntegrate psychologcally wth the system

pecally learnng actvtes s stuaton can lead

to poor the systemrsquos psychologcal bond Accordng

to Katz and Kahn (1977) for the eectve funct-

members must be wllng to do more than most ofthe task defnton s requres the ntegraton of

employees wth organzaton Because accordng to

Ulrch (1998) those wth organzatonal commt-

ment become more ecent and act wth a sense of

hgher responsblty and loyalty

In prevous researches organzatonal commt-

ment was used as dependent varable n some

studes and ndependent varable n other stud-

es In these studes organzatonal commtment

s closely related to absence delay wthdrawal(Rechers 1985) motvaton (Becker et al 1996

BALAY Effect of Learning Organization Perception to the Organizational Commitment

vronment Celep (1996) n hs study related to the

organzatonal commtment of the teachers n edu-

catonal organzatons t s found that teachers are

hghly dedcated to ther jobs and the dedcaton

s mostly related to the teachng professon rather

than school

Balay (2000) n hs study examnng the orga-

nzatonal commtment of the teachers and the

prncpals both n prvate and state hgh schools

t s found that teachers and prncpals n prvate

hgh schools had a hgher level of organzatonal

commtment than teachers and prncpals n state

hgh schools Uumlnuumlvar (2006) n hs study exam-

nng job-related characterstcs job satsfacton

the behavour of the organzatonal ctzenshp

and organzatonal commtment t s found that

organzatonal commtment and the behavour ofthe organzatonal ctzenshp have a sgnfcant

relatonshp Balay (2007) n hs study examnng

the organzatonal commtment of teachers n pr-

mary schools and ther conct management styles

t s found that organzatonal commtment based

on dentfcaton and nternalzaton s especally

related to the conct management styles of comp-

romsng and problem solvng and organzatonal

commtment based on complance s seen as the

only predctor of conct management strategy of

fosterng Yılmaz (2009) n hs study found a close

relatonshp between organzatonal commtment

job satsfacton and organzatonal creatvty Balay

and İpek (2010) n ther study examnng organ-

zatonal culture and organzatonal commtment of

prmary school teachers found a postve correla-

ton between complance based of organzatonal

commtment and the power and role culture and

a negatve correlaton between complance based

of organzatonal commtment and success and

supportve culture Organzatonal commtment atthe level of dentfcaton and nternalzaton sho-

wed a postve correlaton especally wth success

and supportve culture Turan Karadağ and Bektaş

(2011) focused on the relatonshp between organ-

zatonal commtment and learnng organzaton n

the structure of the unversty ey found a pos-

tve correlaton between learnng organzaton and

organzatonal commtment and t s found that

learnng organzaton subscales together predcted

32 percent of organzatonal commtment

On the other hand revewng the lterature t s

obvously seen that researchers such as Argyrs

merely focused on the learnng organzaton ssue

just at thnkng level on the contrary they gave

less mportance to emprcal studes However t

s not enough to just have the concept of learnng

organzaton ntellectually To answer the queston

of how to create a learnng organzaton there s a

need to fnd out the relaton between the conceptof learnng organzaton and the other concepts

related to t n the researches In ths context there

are a lmted numbers of researches carred out For

example Seymour (1992) found out a close relat-

onshp between learnng organzaton and qualty

approaches To hm n order to reveal the qualty

of the organzaton there s a need for the know-

ledge desre and the energy of everyone n the

organzaton Ccedilelk (1997) revealed a relatonshp

between organzatonal learnng and organzat-onal change Accordngly a successful change just

depends on the successful creaton of an organza-

tonal learnng culture To Kavrakoğlu (1996) the

roots of the concept of learnng organzaton are

based on system dynam983145cs System dynamcs s a

dscplne of seeng the whole To see the whole the-

re must be an mplemented shared learnng n all

of the system Fol and Lyles (1985) suggested that

factors such as envronment structure culture and

strategy nuenced the organzatonal learnng

and organzatonal learnng s aected n a postveway f ths organzaton and strateges are adopted

Toumlremen (2001) n hs study comparng prvate and

state hgh schools t s found that team workng n

prvate schools s at a more satsfactory level than

t s n state schools Also Yener (1997) found that

prvate schools are superor to the state schools n

promotng contnuous learnng Basım Şeşen and

Meydan (2009) n ther study carred out on the ef-

fect of the concept of learnng organzaton on the

entrepreneurshp n the organzaton they foundout that team learnng cross-connect systems and

supportve leadershp have a postve eect on ent-

repreneurshp wthn the organzaton

As can be seen clearly from the above nformaton

n the lterature t s seen that studes examnng the

mpact of the faculty membersrsquo percepton of lear-

nng organzaton to organzatonal commtment

n hgher educaton level s very lttle and n lmted

the nsttuton reduces the sense of organzatonal

commtment the feelng of ntense concts occurs

snce employeesrsquo needs n such an envronment are

not met adequately by the managers and employe-

es cannot partcpate to decson-makng process

so that t can be put forward that lower levels of

organzatonal commtment (commtment basedon a hgher complance) are derved from t It s

due to ths reason that there s a sgnfcant rela-

tonshp between low organzatonal commtment

and bureaucratc structure of the unversty that

creates the percepton of pressure and oblgaton

Because poor communcaton bureaucratc ndo-

lence and slowness can be estmated to negatvely

aect the organzatonal commtment on rules and

regulatons reducng the satsfacton Indeed due

to the strongly centralzed structure of publc un-

verstes faculty members oen have bureaucratc

dsadvantages they cannot partcpate to decsons

related to ther work and they cannot use ther n-

tatve the percepton of commtment based on

hgher-level complance (lower dentfcaton and

nternalzaton) s derved from t to a large extent

e results of research done on ths subject are

n support of the above comments Accordng to

the lterature commtment based on complance

s related to weak and superfcal organzatonal

commtment Indvdual at ths level of commt-ment comply wth the organzaton but ths comp-

lance s not done voluntarly and wholeheartedly

In other words ths complance s not based on

convergence (dentfcaton) between ndvdual

and organzaton and the purpose and value share

(nternalzaton) Unwllng complance refers to

the oblgaton e oblgaton requres moblzng

the authorty rules and organzatonal procedures

erefore forced complance s based on control

not trust In ths way the organzaton assures the

realzaton of organzatonal behavor wthout ta-kng nto consderaton the nterests and expecta-

whch was examned school commtment of ad-

In addton n ths research t was examned to

what extent faculty membersrsquo perceptons of lear-

nng organzaton predcted ther derent levels of

organzatonal commtment At the result of the re-

search t was seen that only renforced employees

dmenson from learnng organzaton dmensons

predcted organzatonal commtment based on

complance s result can be explaned by the

qualty of ther organzatonal commtment wth

strengthenng of employees wthn organzaton

Because Brockner et al (1992) have put forward

that commtment based on complance s related tothe lowest partcpaton and support of employees

Accordng to them employees at the complance

level superfcally support ther organzatons Ac-

cordng to Handy (1985) the operaton of the rules

and procedures s usually related to commtment

at the level of complance Complance s based

on control not trust As such t does not gve the

rght to choose to employees As t s clear from ths

nformaton commtment based on complance

(superfcal commtment) decreases n the system

of strengthened employees and employees tend to volunteer actvtes and ntegrate more wth the

system As long as employeesrsquo are trusted on cont-

rol on the level of organzaton decreases emplo-

yees partcpate more n decsons and fnally ther

organzatonal commtment are based on an nnate

adopton above and beyond a formal framework

On the other hand t was observed that dmen-

employees who assocate themselves wth other

members of the team act more responsbly

Fnally t was found that none of dmensons of

learnng organzaton has a sgnfcant mpact on

ton s result can be nterpreted that learnng

opportuntes provded to employees n the organ-

zaton are assocated wth especally whch level of

organzatonal commtment e research results

state that learnng opportuntes oered n the

commtment does not convert to nternalze f t s

not based on a normatve bass (Chatman 1991

organzatonal knowledge to use on solvng the

commtment and the power and role culture and

a negatve correlaton between complance based

of organzatonal commtment and success and

supportve culture Organzatonal commtment atthe level of dentfcaton and nternalzaton sho-

wed a postve correlaton especally wth success

and supportve culture Turan Karadağ and Bektaş

(2011) focused on the relatonshp between organ-

zatonal commtment and learnng organzaton n

the structure of the unversty ey found a pos-

tve correlaton between learnng organzaton and

organzatonal commtment and t s found that

learnng organzaton subscales together predcted

32 percent of organzatonal commtment

On the other hand revewng the lterature t s

obvously seen that researchers such as Argyrs

merely focused on the learnng organzaton ssue

just at thnkng level on the contrary they gave

less mportance to emprcal studes However t

s not enough to just have the concept of learnng

organzaton ntellectually To answer the queston

of how to create a learnng organzaton there s a

need to fnd out the relaton between the conceptof learnng organzaton and the other concepts

related to t n the researches In ths context there

are a lmted numbers of researches carred out For

example Seymour (1992) found out a close relat-

onshp between learnng organzaton and qualty

approaches To hm n order to reveal the qualty

of the organzaton there s a need for the know-

ledge desre and the energy of everyone n the

organzaton Ccedilelk (1997) revealed a relatonshp

between organzatonal learnng and organzat-onal change Accordngly a successful change just

depends on the successful creaton of an organza-

tonal learnng culture To Kavrakoğlu (1996) the

roots of the concept of learnng organzaton are

based on system dynam983145cs System dynamcs s a

dscplne of seeng the whole To see the whole the-

re must be an mplemented shared learnng n all

of the system Fol and Lyles (1985) suggested that

factors such as envronment structure culture and

strategy nuenced the organzatonal learnng

and organzatonal learnng s aected n a postveway f ths organzaton and strateges are adopted

Toumlremen (2001) n hs study comparng prvate and

state hgh schools t s found that team workng n

prvate schools s at a more satsfactory level than

t s n state schools Also Yener (1997) found that

prvate schools are superor to the state schools n

promotng contnuous learnng Basım Şeşen and

Meydan (2009) n ther study carred out on the ef-

fect of the concept of learnng organzaton on the

entrepreneurshp n the organzaton they foundout that team learnng cross-connect systems and

supportve leadershp have a postve eect on ent-

repreneurshp wthn the organzaton

As can be seen clearly from the above nformaton

n the lterature t s seen that studes examnng the

mpact of the faculty membersrsquo percepton of lear-

nng organzaton to organzatonal commtment

snce employeesrsquo needs n such an envronment are

not met adequately by the managers and employe-

es cannot partcpate to decson-makng process

so that t can be put forward that lower levels of

organzatonal commtment (commtment basedon a hgher complance) are derved from t It s

due to ths reason that there s a sgnfcant rela-

tonshp between low organzatonal commtment

Because poor communcaton bureaucratc ndo-

to the strongly centralzed structure of publc un-

e results of research done on ths subject are

In other words ths complance s not based on

(nternalzaton) Unwllng complance refers to

the oblgaton e oblgaton requres moblzng

In addton n ths research t was examned to

dmenson from learnng organzaton dmensons

predcted organzatonal commtment based on

qualty of ther organzatonal commtment wth

strengthenng of employees wthn organzaton

Because Brockner et al (1992) have put forward

that commtment based on complance s related tothe lowest partcpaton and support of employees

Accordng to them employees at the complance

level superfcally support ther organzatons Ac-

cordng to Handy (1985) the operaton of the rules

and procedures s usually related to commtment

at the level of complance Complance s based

on control not trust As such t does not gve the

rght to choose to employees As t s clear from ths

nformaton commtment based on complance

(superfcal commtment) decreases n the system

of strengthened employees and employees tend to volunteer actvtes and ntegrate more wth the

rol on the level of organzaton decreases emplo-

yees partcpate more n decsons and fnally ther

n the organzaton ths stuaton creates a hgh

attractveness and satsfacton on ndvdual and

employees who assocate themselves wth other

members of the team act more responsbly

Fnally t was found that none of dmensons of

learnng organzaton has a sgnfcant mpact on

ton s result can be nterpreted that learnng

opportuntes provded to employees n the organ-

state that learnng opportuntes oered n the

not based on a normatve bass (Chatman 1991

of prvate unversty employeesrsquo on organzato-nal commtment (except for commtment based

on complance) and learnng organzaton n all

dmensons are found to be more postve than

publc unversty employeesrsquo s result shows that

perceptons of learnng organzaton of prvate un-

versty employees are closely related wth the den-

mtment In ths respect f a comparson s made

between prvate and publc unverstes employeesof prvate unverstes who have hgher perceptons

ses that moblze the employee learnng research

and achevement motves For ths purpose the

members workng n publc unverstes should be

motvated wth dentfcaton and nternalzaton

wth the motves mean hgher partcpaton rather

than complance means the system of partal par-

tcpaton It s clear that one of the most eectvetools durng the process of motvaton s culture of

learnng organzaton and the need to mprove t

On the other hand ths study showed one of the

dmensons of the learnng organzaton especally

renforced employees dmenson have an nverse

correlaton wth complance based commtment

Accordng to ths result wth the applcatons

made to empower the employees complance ba-

sed commtment n other words external com-

mtment reduces and employees provde hgherlevel of partcpaton to organzatonal system

Empowerment of employees s possble wth pr-

zng the employees makng the employees feel the

prze enfranchsng and protectng ther nterests

and needs Empowerng the employees need to

lnk employeesrsquo emotonal energy wth care n the

work envronment Admnstrators should convert

the unversty envronment more exble more

learnng-orented and more collaboratve envron-

ments to strengthen teachng sta s stuaton

needs the presence of employees who combneemotonal ntellectual and physcal energy and

show hgh-level of commtment organzatonal

success

Fnally ths research hghlghts the postve eect

of team-orented learnng and shared systems d-

menson of learnng organzaton on organzato-

nal commtment It s remarkable that especally

dmenson of shared systems among these dmen-

sons have more powerful eect on commtment

at the level of dentfcaton Identfcaton means voluntary assocaton wth organzaton as t was

stated before From ths perspectve dentfcaton

s based on beng n sharng wth others and nteg-

raton wth the system Showng postve correla-

ton of both teams-orented learnng and shared

systems dmenson sgnfcant wth dentfcaton

s meanngful Because team-orented learnng

creates a collectve learnng culture throughout

the organzaton then collectve learnng culture

feeds the shared vsons through dalogue Adm-

nstrators who want to keep the employees n the

system wth a commtment at least at the level of

learnng and shared systems n hgher educaton

Because the eectve system-level problem solvng

requres hgh level of dentfcaton wth the orga-

nzaton and dentfcaton requres team-orented

learnng and sharng what s learned

Balay (2000) n hs study examnng the orga-

nzatonal commtment of the teachers and the

prncpals both n prvate and state hgh schools

the organzatonal commtment of teachers n pr-

mary schools and ther conct management styles

t s found that organzatonal commtment based

on dentfcaton and nternalzaton s especally

related to the conct management styles of comp-

romsng and problem solvng and organzatonal

commtment based on complance s seen as the

only predctor of conct management strategy of

fosterng Yılmaz (2009) n hs study found a close

relatonshp between organzatonal commtment

job satsfacton and organzatonal creatvty Balay

and İpek (2010) n ther study examnng organ-

zatonal culture and organzatonal commtment of

prmary school teachers found a postve correla-

ton between complance based of organzatonal

commtment and the power and role culture and

a negatve correlaton between complance based

of organzatonal commtment and success and

supportve culture Organzatonal commtment atthe level of dentfcaton and nternalzaton sho-

wed a postve correlaton especally wth success

and supportve culture Turan Karadağ and Bektaş

(2011) focused on the relatonshp between organ-

zatonal commtment and learnng organzaton n

the structure of the unversty ey found a pos-

tve correlaton between learnng organzaton and

organzatonal commtment and t s found that

learnng organzaton subscales together predcted

32 percent of organzatonal commtment

On the other hand revewng the lterature t s

obvously seen that researchers such as Argyrs

merely focused on the learnng organzaton ssue

just at thnkng level on the contrary they gave

less mportance to emprcal studes However t

s not enough to just have the concept of learnng

organzaton ntellectually To answer the queston

of how to create a learnng organzaton there s a

need to fnd out the relaton between the conceptof learnng organzaton and the other concepts

related to t n the researches In ths context there

are a lmted numbers of researches carred out For

example Seymour (1992) found out a close relat-

onshp between learnng organzaton and qualty

approaches To hm n order to reveal the qualty

of the organzaton there s a need for the know-

ledge desre and the energy of everyone n the

organzaton Ccedilelk (1997) revealed a relatonshp

between organzatonal learnng and organzat-onal change Accordngly a successful change just

depends on the successful creaton of an organza-

tonal learnng culture To Kavrakoğlu (1996) the

roots of the concept of learnng organzaton are

based on system dynam983145cs System dynamcs s a

dscplne of seeng the whole To see the whole the-

re must be an mplemented shared learnng n all

of the system Fol and Lyles (1985) suggested that

factors such as envronment structure culture and

strategy nuenced the organzatonal learnng

and organzatonal learnng s aected n a postveway f ths organzaton and strateges are adopted

Toumlremen (2001) n hs study comparng prvate and

state hgh schools t s found that team workng n

prvate schools s at a more satsfactory level than

t s n state schools Also Yener (1997) found that

prvate schools are superor to the state schools n

promotng contnuous learnng Basım Şeşen and

Meydan (2009) n ther study carred out on the ef-

fect of the concept of learnng organzaton on the

entrepreneurshp n the organzaton they foundout that team learnng cross-connect systems and

supportve leadershp have a postve eect on ent-

repreneurshp wthn the organzaton

As can be seen clearly from the above nformaton

n the lterature t s seen that studes examnng the

mpact of the faculty membersrsquo percepton of lear-

nng organzaton to organzatonal commtment

n hgher educaton level s very lttle and n lmted

the nsttuton reduces the sense of organzatonal

commtment the feelng of ntense concts occurs

snce employeesrsquo needs n such an envronment are

not met adequately by the managers and employe-

es cannot partcpate to decson-makng process

so that t can be put forward that lower levels of

organzatonal commtment (commtment basedon a hgher complance) are derved from t It s

due to ths reason that there s a sgnfcant rela-

tonshp between low organzatonal commtment

and bureaucratc structure of the unversty that

creates the percepton of pressure and oblgaton

Because poor communcaton bureaucratc ndo-

lence and slowness can be estmated to negatvely

aect the organzatonal commtment on rules and

regulatons reducng the satsfacton Indeed due

to the strongly centralzed structure of publc un-

dsadvantages they cannot partcpate to decsons

related to ther work and they cannot use ther n-

tatve the percepton of commtment based on

hgher-level complance (lower dentfcaton and

nternalzaton) s derved from t to a large extent

e results of research done on ths subject are

n support of the above comments Accordng to

the lterature commtment based on complance

s related to weak and superfcal organzatonal

commtment Indvdual at ths level of commt-ment comply wth the organzaton but ths comp-

In other words ths complance s not based on

convergence (dentfcaton) between ndvdual

and organzaton and the purpose and value share

(nternalzaton) Unwllng complance refers to

the oblgaton e oblgaton requres moblzng

In addton n ths research t was examned to

organzatonal commtment At the result of the re-

search t was seen that only renforced employees

dmenson from learnng organzaton dmensons

predcted organzatonal commtment based on

complance s result can be explaned by the

qualty of ther organzatonal commtment wth

strengthenng of employees wthn organzaton

Because Brockner et al (1992) have put forward

that commtment based on complance s related tothe lowest partcpaton and support of employees

Accordng to them employees at the complance

level superfcally support ther organzatons Ac-

cordng to Handy (1985) the operaton of the rules

and procedures s usually related to commtment

at the level of complance Complance s based

on control not trust As such t does not gve the

rght to choose to employees As t s clear from ths

nformaton commtment based on complance

(superfcal commtment) decreases n the system

of strengthened employees and employees tend to volunteer actvtes and ntegrate more wth the

system As long as employeesrsquo are trusted on cont-

rol on the level of organzaton decreases emplo-

yees partcpate more n decsons and fnally ther

organzatonal commtment are based on an nnate

OrsquoRelly and Chatman (1986) put forward n ther

s closely related to the desre to be close to others

n the organzaton ths stuaton creates a hgh

attractveness and satsfacton on ndvdual and

employees who assocate themselves wth other

members of the team act more responsbly

Fnally t was found that none of dmensons of

learnng organzaton has a sgnfcant mpact on

organzatonal commtment based on nternalza-

ton s result can be nterpreted that learnng

opportuntes provded to employees n the organ-

zaton are assocated wth especally whch level of

organzatonal commtment e research results

state that learnng opportuntes oered n the

t t t d l f lt b h

work n prvate unverstes have hgher level of

organzatonal commtment to the organzaton

they work s result reveals an mportant clue

related to the derence between the tradtonal

unversty structure and the learnng unversty

structure that undermnes the organzatonal ef-

fectveness Unverstes are tryng to acheve therobjectves by holdng the best employees n ther

bodes nowadays that carry the competton n hg-

her educaton onto the natonal and nternatonal

level Experence of prvate unverstes n hgher

educaton started to become ncreasngly prevalent

n Turkey n recent years s stuaton has created

a new compettve envronment among the un-

verstes partcularly between prvate and publc

unverstes Whle prvate unverstes are tryng

to pull the well-traned teachng sta from the state

unverstes by creatng attractve work envron-

ments for employees of publc unverstes publc

unverstes are not makng the same eort to keep

the traned teachng sta n the system Wth ths

result the managers and practtoners n hgher

educaton should be lead to mprove organzatonal

commtment factors related to the state unverst-

es to thnk on obstacles of organzatonal learnng

and to develop polces n ths drecton

It was also found n the study that perceptons

of prvate unversty employeesrsquo on organzato-nal commtment (except for commtment based

on complance) and learnng organzaton n all

dmensons are found to be more postve than

publc unversty employeesrsquo s result shows that

perceptons of learnng organzaton of prvate un-

versty employees are closely related wth the den-

tfcaton and nternalzaton based organzatonal

commtment wth except complance based com-

mtment In ths respect f a comparson s made

between prvate and publc unverstes employeesof prvate unverstes who have hgher perceptons

of learnng organzaton have hgher level of com-

mtment percepton than employees n the state

unversty who have a lower percepton of learnng

organzaton Competton between unverstes

ses that moblze the employee learnng research

and achevement motves For ths purpose the

members workng n publc unverstes should be

motvated wth dentfcaton and nternalzaton

wth the motves mean hgher partcpaton rather

than complance means the system of partal par-

tcpaton It s clear that one of the most eectvetools durng the process of motvaton s culture of

learnng organzaton and the need to mprove t

On the other hand ths study showed one of the

dmensons of the learnng organzaton especally

renforced employees dmenson have an nverse

correlaton wth complance based commtment

Accordng to ths result wth the applcatons

made to empower the employees complance ba-

sed commtment n other words external com-

mtment reduces and employees provde hgherlevel of partcpaton to organzatonal system

Empowerment of employees s possble wth pr-

zng the employees makng the employees feel the

prze enfranchsng and protectng ther nterests

and needs Empowerng the employees need to

lnk employeesrsquo emotonal energy wth care n the

work envronment Admnstrators should convert

the unversty envronment more exble more

learnng-orented and more collaboratve envron-

ments to strengthen teachng sta s stuaton

needs the presence of employees who combneemotonal ntellectual and physcal energy and

show hgh-level of commtment organzatonal

success

Fnally ths research hghlghts the postve eect

of team-orented learnng and shared systems d-

menson of learnng organzaton on organzato-

nal commtment It s remarkable that especally

dmenson of shared systems among these dmen-

sons have more powerful eect on commtment

at the level of dentfcaton Identfcaton means voluntary assocaton wth organzaton as t was

stated before From ths perspectve dentfcaton

s based on beng n sharng wth others and nteg-

raton wth the system Showng postve correla-

ton of both teams-orented learnng and shared

systems dmenson sgnfcant wth dentfcaton

s meanngful Because team-orented learnng

creates a collectve learnng culture throughout

the organzaton then collectve learnng culture

feeds the shared vsons through dalogue Adm-

nstrators who want to keep the employees n the

system wth a commtment at least at the level of

learnng and shared systems n hgher educaton

Because the eectve system-level problem solvng

requres hgh level of dentfcaton wth the orga-

nzaton and dentfcaton requres team-orented

learnng and sharng what s learned

On the other hand t was seen that faculty mem-

by unversty admnstratonsrsquo eorts to create a

the nsttuton reduces the sense of organzatonal

commtment the feelng of ntense concts occurs

snce employeesrsquo needs n such an envronment are

not met adequately by the managers and employe-

es cannot partcpate to decson-makng process

so that t can be put forward that lower levels of

organzatonal commtment (commtment basedon a hgher complance) are derved from t It s

due to ths reason that there s a sgnfcant rela-

tonshp between low organzatonal commtment

and bureaucratc structure of the unversty that

creates the percepton of pressure and oblgaton

Because poor communcaton bureaucratc ndo-

lence and slowness can be estmated to negatvely

aect the organzatonal commtment on rules and

regulatons reducng the satsfacton Indeed due

to the strongly centralzed structure of publc un-

verstes faculty members oen have bureaucratc

dsadvantages they cannot partcpate to decsons

related to ther work and they cannot use ther n-

tatve the percepton of commtment based on

hgher-level complance (lower dentfcaton and

nternalzaton) s derved from t to a large extent

e results of research done on ths subject are

n support of the above comments Accordng to

the lterature commtment based on complance

s related to weak and superfcal organzatonal

commtment Indvdual at ths level of commt-ment comply wth the organzaton but ths comp-

lance s not done voluntarly and wholeheartedly

In other words ths complance s not based on

convergence (dentfcaton) between ndvdual

and organzaton and the purpose and value share

(nternalzaton) Unwllng complance refers to

the oblgaton e oblgaton requres moblzng

the authorty rules and organzatonal procedures

erefore forced complance s based on control

not trust In ths way the organzaton assures the

realzaton of organzatonal behavor wthout ta-kng nto consderaton the nterests and expecta-

tons of employees (Brockner Tyler amp Schneder

Smlar results were observed n studes of compa-

rson of prvate and publc schools on ther orga-

nzatonal commtment In Balayrsquos (2000) research

whch was examned school commtment of ad-

mnstrators and teachers workng n prvate and

publc hgh schools t was found that admnstra-tor and teachers of prvate hgh school felt more

commtment n both dentfcaton and nterna

lzaton dmensons than those workng n publc

hgh schools whereas t was found that admnst-

rator and teachers workng n publc hgh schools

felt more commtment manly commtment level

based on complance

In addton n ths research t was examned to

what extent faculty membersrsquo perceptons of lear-

nng organzaton predcted ther derent levels of

organzatonal commtment At the result of the re-

search t was seen that only renforced employees

dmenson from learnng organzaton dmensons

predcted organzatonal commtment based on

complance s result can be explaned by the

qualty of ther organzatonal commtment wth

strengthenng of employees wthn organzaton

Because Brockner et al (1992) have put forward

that commtment based on complance s related tothe lowest partcpaton and support of employees

Accordng to them employees at the complance

level superfcally support ther organzatons Ac-

cordng to Handy (1985) the operaton of the rules

and procedures s usually related to commtment

at the level of complance Complance s based

on control not trust As such t does not gve the

rght to choose to employees As t s clear from ths

nformaton commtment based on complance

(superfcal commtment) decreases n the system

of strengthened employees and employees tend to volunteer actvtes and ntegrate more wth the

system As long as employeesrsquo are trusted on cont-

rol on the level of organzaton decreases emplo-

yees partcpate more n decsons and fnally ther

organzatonal commtment are based on an nnate

adopton above and beyond a formal framework

On the other hand t was observed that dmen-

OrsquoRelly and Chatman (1986) put forward n ther

studes that commtment based on dentfcaton

s closely related to the desre to be close to others

n the organzaton ths stuaton creates a hgh

attractveness and satsfacton on ndvdual and

employees who assocate themselves wth other

members of the team act more responsbly

Fnally t was found that none of dmensons of

learnng organzaton has a sgnfcant mpact on

organzatonal commtment based on nternalza-

ton s result can be nterpreted that learnng

opportuntes provded to employees n the organ-

zaton are assocated wth especally whch level of

organzatonal commtment e research results

state that learnng opportuntes oered n the

commtment does not convert to nternalze f t s

not based on a normatve bass (Chatman 1991

Handy 1985 Wener 1982) Accordng to these

results t can be explaned that faculty members

dmenson of shared systems among these dmen-

sons have more powerful eect on commtment

at the level of dentfcaton Identfcaton means voluntary assocaton wth organzaton as t was

stated before From ths perspectve dentfcaton

s based on beng n sharng wth others and nteg-

raton wth the system Showng postve correla-

ton of both teams-orented learnng and shared

systems dmenson sgnfcant wth dentfcaton

s meanngful Because team-orented learnng

creates a collectve learnng culture throughout

the organzaton then collectve learnng culture

feeds the shared vsons through dalogue Adm-

nstrators who want to keep the employees n the

system wth a commtment at least at the level of

learnng and shared systems n hgher educaton

Because the eectve system-level problem solvng

requres hgh level of dentfcaton wth the orga-

On the other hand t was seen that faculty mem-

the nsttuton reduces the sense of organzatonal

commtment the feelng of ntense concts occurs

snce employeesrsquo needs n such an envronment are

not met adequately by the managers and employe-

es cannot partcpate to decson-makng process

so that t can be put forward that lower levels of

organzatonal commtment (commtment basedon a hgher complance) are derved from t It s

due to ths reason that there s a sgnfcant rela-

tonshp between low organzatonal commtment

and bureaucratc structure of the unversty that

creates the percepton of pressure and oblgaton

Because poor communcaton bureaucratc ndo-

lence and slowness can be estmated to negatvely

aect the organzatonal commtment on rules and

regulatons reducng the satsfacton Indeed due

to the strongly centralzed structure of publc un-

verstes faculty members oen have bureaucratc

dsadvantages they cannot partcpate to decsons

related to ther work and they cannot use ther n-

tatve the percepton of commtment based on

hgher-level complance (lower dentfcaton and

nternalzaton) s derved from t to a large extent

e results of research done on ths subject are

n support of the above comments Accordng to

the lterature commtment based on complance

s related to weak and superfcal organzatonal

commtment Indvdual at ths level of commt-ment comply wth the organzaton but ths comp-

lance s not done voluntarly and wholeheartedly

In other words ths complance s not based on

convergence (dentfcaton) between ndvdual

and organzaton and the purpose and value share

(nternalzaton) Unwllng complance refers to

the oblgaton e oblgaton requres moblzng

the authorty rules and organzatonal procedures

erefore forced complance s based on control

not trust In ths way the organzaton assures the

realzaton of organzatonal behavor wthout ta-kng nto consderaton the nterests and expecta-

tons of employees (Brockner Tyler amp Schneder

whch was examned school commtment of ad-

mnstrators and teachers workng n prvate and

publc hgh schools t was found that admnstra-tor and teachers of prvate hgh school felt more

commtment n both dentfcaton and nterna

lzaton dmensons than those workng n publc

hgh schools whereas t was found that admnst-

rator and teachers workng n publc hgh schools

felt more commtment manly commtment level

based on complance

In addton n ths research t was examned to

what extent faculty membersrsquo perceptons of lear-

nng organzaton predcted ther derent levels of

organzatonal commtment At the result of the re-

search t was seen that only renforced employees

dmenson from learnng organzaton dmensons

predcted organzatonal commtment based on

complance s result can be explaned by the

qualty of ther organzatonal commtment wth

strengthenng of employees wthn organzaton

Because Brockner et al (1992) have put forward

that commtment based on complance s related tothe lowest partcpaton and support of employees

Accordng to them employees at the complance

level superfcally support ther organzatons Ac-

cordng to Handy (1985) the operaton of the rules

and procedures s usually related to commtment

at the level of complance Complance s based

on control not trust As such t does not gve the

rght to choose to employees As t s clear from ths

nformaton commtment based on complance

(superfcal commtment) decreases n the system

of strengthened employees and employees tend to volunteer actvtes and ntegrate more wth the

system As long as employeesrsquo are trusted on cont-

rol on the level of organzaton decreases emplo-

yees partcpate more n decsons and fnally ther

organzatonal commtment are based on an nnate

adopton above and beyond a formal framework

On the other hand t was observed that dmen-

s closely related to the desre to be close to others

n the organzaton ths stuaton creates a hgh

attractveness and satsfacton on ndvdual and

employees who assocate themselves wth other

members of the team act more responsbly

Fnally t was found that none of dmensons of

learnng organzaton has a sgnfcant mpact on

organzatonal commtment based on nternalza-

ton s result can be nterpreted that learnng

opportuntes provded to employees n the organ-

zaton are assocated wth especally whch level of

organzatonal commtment e research results

state that learnng opportuntes oered n the

commtment does not convert to nternalze f t s

not based on a normatve bass (Chatman 1991

results t can be explaned that faculty members

was found that learnng organzaton perceptonsof faculty members workng n prvate unversty

ons of learnng organzaton used n the researchWhen an evaluaton of ths nformaton s made

t can be sad that faculty members workng n pr-

vate unversty evaluate ther unversty n a better

poston than those workng n publc unversty

and ther hgh perceptons of learnng organzaton

s derved from ths

On the other hand t was seen that faculty mem-

bers workng n prvate unversty compared wth

colleagues workng n publc unversty generally

have shown more commtment to the unverstywhch they worked s result can be explaned

by unversty admnstratonsrsquo eorts to create a

sutable workng envronment for employees and

(1993) research fndngs support ths approach

Accordng to these authors a far and adequa-

BALAY Effect of Learning Organization Perception to the Organizational Commitment

the nsttuton reduces the sense of organzatonal

commtment the feelng of ntense concts occurs

snce employeesrsquo needs n such an envronment are

not met adequately by the managers and employe-

es cannot partcpate to decson-makng process

so that t can be put forward that lower levels of

organzatonal commtment (commtment basedon a hgher complance) are derved from t It s

due to ths reason that there s a sgnfcant rela-

tonshp between low organzatonal commtment

and bureaucratc structure of the unversty that

creates the percepton of pressure and oblgaton

Because poor communcaton bureaucratc ndo-

lence and slowness can be estmated to negatvely

aect the organzatonal commtment on rules and

regulatons reducng the satsfacton Indeed due

to the strongly centralzed structure of publc un-

verstes faculty members oen have bureaucratc

dsadvantages they cannot partcpate to decsons

related to ther work and they cannot use ther n-

tatve the percepton of commtment based on

hgher-level complance (lower dentfcaton and

nternalzaton) s derved from t to a large extent

e results of research done on ths subject are

n support of the above comments Accordng to

the lterature commtment based on complance

s related to weak and superfcal organzatonal

commtment Indvdual at ths level of commt-ment comply wth the organzaton but ths comp-

lance s not done voluntarly and wholeheartedly

In other words ths complance s not based on

convergence (dentfcaton) between ndvdual

and organzaton and the purpose and value share

(nternalzaton) Unwllng complance refers to

the oblgaton e oblgaton requres moblzng

the authorty rules and organzatonal procedures

erefore forced complance s based on control

not trust In ths way the organzaton assures the

realzaton of organzatonal behavor wthout ta-kng nto consderaton the nterests and expecta-

tons of employees (Brockner Tyler amp Schneder

1992 Handy 1985 Kelman 1958 OrsquoRelly amp Chat-

man 1986)

Smlar results were observed n studes of compa-

rson of prvate and publc schools on ther orga-

nzatonal commtment In Balayrsquos (2000) research

whch was examned school commtment of ad-

mnstrators and teachers workng n prvate and

publc hgh schools t was found that admnstra-tor and teachers of prvate hgh school felt more

commtment n both dentfcaton and nterna

lzaton dmensons than those workng n publc

hgh schools whereas t was found that admnst-

rator and teachers workng n publc hgh schools

felt more commtment manly commtment level

based on complance

In addton n ths research t was examned to

what extent faculty membersrsquo perceptons of lear-

nng organzaton predcted ther derent levels of

organzatonal commtment At the result of the re-

search t was seen that only renforced employees

dmenson from learnng organzaton dmensons

predcted organzatonal commtment based on

complance s result can be explaned by the

qualty of ther organzatonal commtment wth

strengthenng of employees wthn organzaton

Because Brockner et al (1992) have put forward

that commtment based on complance s related tothe lowest partcpaton and support of employees

Accordng to them employees at the complance

level superfcally support ther organzatons Ac-

cordng to Handy (1985) the operaton of the rules

and procedures s usually related to commtment

at the level of complance Complance s based

on control not trust As such t does not gve the

rght to choose to employees As t s clear from ths

nformaton commtment based on complance

(superfcal commtment) decreases n the system

of strengthened employees and employees tend to volunteer actvtes and ntegrate more wth the

system As long as employeesrsquo are trusted on cont-

rol on the level of organzaton decreases emplo-

yees partcpate more n decsons and fnally ther

organzatonal commtment are based on an nnate

adopton above and beyond a formal framework

On the other hand t was observed that dmen-

sons of team learn983145ng and shared systems predc-

ted postvely organzatonal commtment based

on 983145dent983145f983145cat983145on especally dmenson of sharedsystems had a stronger eect on commtment based

shared systems on employeesrsquo commtment s re-

markable Studes n ths subject clearly quoted that

se of organzatonal commtment and good fath

OrsquoRelly and Chatman (1986) put forward n ther

studes that commtment based on dentfcaton

s closely related to the desre to be close to others

n the organzaton ths stuaton creates a hgh

attractveness and satsfacton on ndvdual and

employees who assocate themselves wth other

members of the team act more responsbly

Fnally t was found that none of dmensons of

learnng organzaton has a sgnfcant mpact on

organzatonal commtment based on nternalza-

ton s result can be nterpreted that learnng

opportuntes provded to employees n the organ-

zaton are assocated wth especally whch level of

organzatonal commtment e research results

state that learnng opportuntes oered n the

organzaton consttute of commtment based on

dentfcaton by means of creatng a sense of com-

petence n employees and usng and developngsklls (Frestone amp Pennel 1993 Maero 1988

Matheu amp Zajac 1990 Rosenholtz 1989) but ths

commtment does not convert to nternalze f t s

not based on a normatve bass (Chatman 1991

Handy 1985 Wener 1982) Accordng to these

results t can be explaned that faculty members

are satsfed wth opportuntes of learnng and self

development but ths commtment of ther nst-

tutons s not at the level of nternalzaton whch

means ntegraton wth the organzatonrsquos goals and values

n Turkey n recent years s stuaton has created

a new compettve envronment among the un-

It was also found n the study that perceptons

of prvate unversty employeesrsquo on organzato-nal commtment (except for commtment based

on complance) and learnng organzaton n all

dmensons are found to be more postve than

publc unversty employeesrsquo s result shows that

perceptons of learnng organzaton of prvate un-

ses that moblze the employee learnng research

members workng n publc unverstes should be

motvated wth dentfcaton and nternalzaton

wth the motves mean hgher partcpaton rather

than complance means the system of partal par-

tcpaton It s clear that one of the most eectvetools durng the process of motvaton s culture of

learnng organzaton and the need to mprove t

On the other hand ths study showed one of the

dmensons of the learnng organzaton especally

renforced employees dmenson have an nverse

correlaton wth complance based commtment

Accordng to ths result wth the applcatons

made to empower the employees complance ba-

sed commtment n other words external com-

mtment reduces and employees provde hgherlevel of partcpaton to organzatonal system

Empowerment of employees s possble wth pr-

zng the employees makng the employees feel the

lnk employeesrsquo emotonal energy wth care n the

work envronment Admnstrators should convert

menson of learnng organzaton on organzato-

dmenson of shared systems among these dmen-

sons have more powerful eect on commtment

at the level of dentfcaton Identfcaton means voluntary assocaton wth organzaton as t was

stated before From ths perspectve dentfcaton

s based on beng n sharng wth others and nteg-

raton wth the system Showng postve correla-

ton of both teams-orented learnng and shared

systems dmenson sgnfcant wth dentfcaton

s meanngful Because team-orented learnng

creates a collectve learnng culture throughout

the organzaton then collectve learnng culture

feeds the shared vsons through dalogue Adm-

nstrators who want to keep the employees n the

system wth a commtment at least at the level of

learnng and shared systems n hgher educaton

Because the eectve system-level problem solvng

requres hgh level of dentfcaton wth the orga-

BALAY Effect of Learning Organization Perception to the Organizational Commitment

the nsttuton reduces the sense of organzatonal

commtment the feelng of ntense concts occurs

snce employeesrsquo needs n such an envronment are

not met adequately by the managers and employe-

es cannot partcpate to decson-makng process

so that t can be put forward that lower levels of

organzatonal commtment (commtment basedon a hgher complance) are derved from t It s

due to ths reason that there s a sgnfcant rela-

tonshp between low organzatonal commtment

and bureaucratc structure of the unversty that

creates the percepton of pressure and oblgaton

Because poor communcaton bureaucratc ndo-

lence and slowness can be estmated to negatvely

aect the organzatonal commtment on rules and

regulatons reducng the satsfacton Indeed due

to the strongly centralzed structure of publc un-

verstes faculty members oen have bureaucratc

dsadvantages they cannot partcpate to decsons

related to ther work and they cannot use ther n-

tatve the percepton of commtment based on

hgher-level complance (lower dentfcaton and

nternalzaton) s derved from t to a large extent

e results of research done on ths subject are

n support of the above comments Accordng to

the lterature commtment based on complance

s related to weak and superfcal organzatonal

commtment Indvdual at ths level of commt-ment comply wth the organzaton but ths comp-

lance s not done voluntarly and wholeheartedly

In other words ths complance s not based on

convergence (dentfcaton) between ndvdual

and organzaton and the purpose and value share

(nternalzaton) Unwllng complance refers to

the oblgaton e oblgaton requres moblzng

the authorty rules and organzatonal procedures

erefore forced complance s based on control

not trust In ths way the organzaton assures the

realzaton of organzatonal behavor wthout ta-kng nto consderaton the nterests and expecta-

tons of employees (Brockner Tyler amp Schneder

1992 Handy 1985 Kelman 1958 OrsquoRelly amp Chat-

man 1986)

Smlar results were observed n studes of compa-

rson of prvate and publc schools on ther orga-

nzatonal commtment In Balayrsquos (2000) research

whch was examned school commtment of ad-

mnstrators and teachers workng n prvate and

publc hgh schools t was found that admnstra-tor and teachers of prvate hgh school felt more

commtment n both dentfcaton and nterna

lzaton dmensons than those workng n publc

hgh schools whereas t was found that admnst-

rator and teachers workng n publc hgh schools

felt more commtment manly commtment level

based on complance

In addton n ths research t was examned to

what extent faculty membersrsquo perceptons of lear-

nng organzaton predcted ther derent levels of

organzatonal commtment At the result of the re-

search t was seen that only renforced employees

dmenson from learnng organzaton dmensons

predcted organzatonal commtment based on

complance s result can be explaned by the

qualty of ther organzatonal commtment wth

strengthenng of employees wthn organzaton

Because Brockner et al (1992) have put forward

that commtment based on complance s related tothe lowest partcpaton and support of employees

Accordng to them employees at the complance

level superfcally support ther organzatons Ac-

cordng to Handy (1985) the operaton of the rules

and procedures s usually related to commtment

at the level of complance Complance s based

on control not trust As such t does not gve the

rght to choose to employees As t s clear from ths

nformaton commtment based on complance

(superfcal commtment) decreases n the system

of strengthened employees and employees tend to volunteer actvtes and ntegrate more wth the

system As long as employeesrsquo are trusted on cont-

rol on the level of organzaton decreases emplo-

yees partcpate more n decsons and fnally ther

organzatonal commtment are based on an nnate

adopton above and beyond a formal framework

On the other hand t was observed that dmen-

sons of team learn983145ng and shared systems predc-

ted postvely organzatonal commtment based

on 983145dent983145f983145cat983145on especally dmenson of sharedsystems had a stronger eect on commtment based

on 983145dent983145f983145cat983145on e mpact of team learnng and

shared systems on employeesrsquo commtment s re-

markable Studes n ths subject clearly quoted that

havng team learnng and shared systems at organ-

zatonal level strongly aects employeesrsquo organza-

tonal commtment For nstance Ves (2010) put

forward n hs research that team learnng created

a collectve dscplne n organzaton and t le the

door open to dalogue and mproved the wll to sol-

ve problems wth hgh creatvty Accordng to Ve-

s team learnng develops a sense of togetherness

the organzaton by makng the best contrbuton

to the soluton even the most complex ssues Ac-

cordng to Ves the dea of shared system s related

to shared vson shared vsons actvate the dea of

creatng a common and shared future wth shared

mages ths also creates a sense of strong commt-

ment Teare and Dealtry (1998) also put forwardthat shared vsons actvate the wll of collectve

learnng and there s a close relatonshp wth sen-

se of organzatonal commtment and good fath

OrsquoRelly and Chatman (1986) put forward n ther

studes that commtment based on dentfcaton

s closely related to the desre to be close to others

n the organzaton ths stuaton creates a hgh

attractveness and satsfacton on ndvdual and

employees who assocate themselves wth other

members of the team act more responsbly

Fnally t was found that none of dmensons of

learnng organzaton has a sgnfcant mpact on

organzatonal commtment based on nternalza-

ton s result can be nterpreted that learnng

opportuntes provded to employees n the organ-

zaton are assocated wth especally whch level of

organzatonal commtment e research results

state that learnng opportuntes oered n the

organzaton consttute of commtment based on

dentfcaton by means of creatng a sense of com-

petence n employees and usng and developngsklls (Frestone amp Pennel 1993 Maero 1988

Matheu amp Zajac 1990 Rosenholtz 1989) but ths

commtment does not convert to nternalze f t s

not based on a normatve bass (Chatman 1991

Handy 1985 Wener 1982) Accordng to these

results t can be explaned that faculty members

are satsfed wth opportuntes of learnng and self

development but ths commtment of ther nst-

tutons s not at the level of nternalzaton whch

means ntegraton wth the organzatonrsquos goals and values

bodes nowadays that carry the competton n hg-

n Turkey n recent years s stuaton has created

a new compettve envronment among the un-

es to thnk on obstacles of organzatonal learnng

and to develop polces n ths drecton

It was also found n the study that perceptons

of prvate unversty employeesrsquo on organzato-nal commtment (except for commtment based

on complance) and learnng organzaton n all

dmensons are found to be more postve than

publc unversty employeesrsquo s result shows that

perceptons of learnng organzaton of prvate un-

members workng n publc unverstes should be

motvated wth dentfcaton and nternalzaton

wth the motves mean hgher partcpaton rather

than complance means the system of partal par-

tcpaton It s clear that one of the most eectvetools durng the process of motvaton s culture of

learnng organzaton and the need to mprove t

On the other hand ths study showed one of the

dmensons of the learnng organzaton especally

renforced employees dmenson have an nverse

Accordng to ths result wth the applcatons

Empowerment of employees s possble wth pr-

s based on beng n sharng wth others and nteg-

s meanngful Because team-orented learnng

creates a collectve learnng culture throughout

the organzaton then collectve learnng culture

feeds the shared vsons through dalogue Adm-

OrsquoRelly and Chatman (1986) put forward n ther

studes that commtment based on dentfcaton

s closely related to the desre to be close to others

n the organzaton ths stuaton creates a hgh

attractveness and satsfacton on ndvdual and

employees who assocate themselves wth other

members of the team act more responsbly

Fnally t was found that none of dmensons of

learnng organzaton has a sgnfcant mpact on

organzatonal commtment based on nternalza-

ton s result can be nterpreted that learnng

opportuntes provded to employees n the organ-

zaton are assocated wth especally whch level of

organzatonal commtment e research results

state that learnng opportuntes oered n the

organzaton consttute of commtment based on

petence n employees and usng and developngsklls (Frestone amp Pennel 1993 Maero 1988

commtment does not convert to nternalze f t s

not based on a normatve bass (Chatman 1991

Handy 1985 Wener 1982) Accordng to these

results t can be explaned that faculty members

are satsfed wth opportuntes of learnng and self

development but ths commtment of ther nst-

tutons s not at the level of nternalzaton whch

means ntegraton wth the organzatonrsquos goals and values

related to the derence between the tradtonal

bodes nowadays that carry the competton n hg-

her educaton onto the natonal and nternatonal

level Experence of prvate unverstes n hgher

educaton started to become ncreasngly prevalent

n Turkey n recent years s stuaton has created

a new compettve envronment among the un-

verstes partcularly between prvate and publc

to pull the well-traned teachng sta from the state

commtment factors related to the state unverst-

es to thnk on obstacles of organzatonal learnng

and to develop polces n ths drecton

It was also found n the study that perceptons

of prvate unversty employeesrsquo on organzato-nal commtment (except for commtment based

on complance) and learnng organzaton n all

dmensons are found to be more postve than

publc unversty employeesrsquo s result shows that

perceptons of learnng organzaton of prvate un-

versty employees are closely related wth the den-

mtment In ths respect f a comparson s made

members workng n publc unverstes should be

motvated wth dentfcaton and nternalzaton

wth the motves mean hgher partcpaton rather

than complance means the system of partal par-

tcpaton It s clear that one of the most eectvetools durng the process of motvaton s culture of

learnng organzaton and the need to mprove t

On the other hand ths study showed one of the

dmensons of the learnng organzaton especally

renforced employees dmenson have an nverse

Accordng to ths result wth the applcatons

made to empower the employees complance ba-

sed commtment n other words external com-

mtment reduces and employees provde hgherlevel of partcpaton to organzatonal system

Empowerment of employees s possble wth pr-

zng the employees makng the employees feel the

lnk employeesrsquo emotonal energy wth care n the

dmenson of shared systems among these dmen-

sons have more powerful eect on commtment

at the level of dentfcaton Identfcaton means voluntary assocaton wth organzaton as t was

stated before From ths perspectve dentfcaton

s based on beng n sharng wth others and nteg-

raton wth the system Showng postve correla-

ton of both teams-orented learnng and shared

systems dmenson sgnfcant wth dentfcaton

s meanngful Because team-orented learnng

creates a collectve learnng culture throughout

the organzaton then collectve learnng culture

feeds the shared vsons through dalogue Adm-

nstrators who want to keep the employees n the

system wth a commtment at least at the level of

learnng and shared systems n hgher educaton

Because the eectve system-level problem solvng

requres hgh level of dentfcaton wth the orga-

BALAY Effect of Learning Organization Perception to the Organizational Commitment

ses that moblze the employee learnng research

and achevement motves For ths purpose the

members workng n publc unverstes should be

motvated wth dentfcaton and nternalzaton

wth the motves mean hgher partcpaton rather

than complance means the system of partal par-

tcpaton It s clear that one of the most eectvetools durng the process of motvaton s culture of

learnng organzaton and the need to mprove t

On the other hand ths study showed one of the

dmensons of the learnng organzaton especally

renforced employees dmenson have an nverse

correlaton wth complance based commtment

Accordng to ths result wth the applcatons

made to empower the employees complance ba-

sed commtment n other words external com-

mtment reduces and employees provde hgherlevel of partcpaton to organzatonal system

Empowerment of employees s possble wth pr-

zng the employees makng the employees feel the

prze enfranchsng and protectng ther nterests

and needs Empowerng the employees need to

lnk employeesrsquo emotonal energy wth care n the

work envronment Admnstrators should convert

the unversty envronment more exble more

learnng-orented and more collaboratve envron-

ments to strengthen teachng sta s stuaton

needs the presence of employees who combneemotonal ntellectual and physcal energy and

show hgh-level of commtment organzatonal

success

Fnally ths research hghlghts the postve eect

of team-orented learnng and shared systems d-

menson of learnng organzaton on organzato-

nal commtment It s remarkable that especally

dmenson of shared systems among these dmen-

sons have more powerful eect on commtment

at the level of dentfcaton Identfcaton means voluntary assocaton wth organzaton as t was

stated before From ths perspectve dentfcaton

s based on beng n sharng wth others and nteg-

raton wth the system Showng postve correla-

ton of both teams-orented learnng and shared

systems dmenson sgnfcant wth dentfcaton

s meanngful Because team-orented learnng

creates a collectve learnng culture throughout

the organzaton then collectve learnng culture

feeds the shared vsons through dalogue Adm-

nstrators who want to keep the employees n the

system wth a commtment at least at the level of

learnng and shared systems n hgher educaton

Because the eectve system-level problem solvng

requres hgh level of dentfcaton wth the orga-

nzaton and dentfcaton requres team-orented

learnng and sharng what s learned

L983145m983145tat983145ons and Proposals for Researchers

Despte the study whch ams to descrbe by com-

parng the faculty memebersrsquo perceptons of orga-

nzatons and organzatonal commtment on one

of the two unverstes ncludng prvate and publc

hghlghts mportant results t should be evaluated

wth some lmtatons Frst of all despte the re-

search carred out usng vald and relable scales

the workng group was lmted wth two unvers-

tes (one publc one prvate) and smlar facultesn these unverstes (Faculty of Educaton Faculty

of Economcs and Admnstratve Scences and Fa-

culty of Engneerng) It s remarkable that the par-

tcpaton n prvate unversty was less than expec-

ted n the study despte the eorts s stuaton

requres beng cautous about the generalzablty

of the results s research amed to analyze the

possble relatonshp between of learnng organ-

zaton and organzatonal commtment of faculty

members e study could be rehandled by ma-

kng comparson between more prvate and stateunverstes e research addtonally could be

developed around other concepts (organzatonal

creatvty dversty management leadershp etc)

related wth learnng organzaton and organzat-
