Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to investigate the regulatory role of job stress in the relationship between sustainable leadership and innovation strategies. In the studies conducted in the literature, there is no study in which the regulatory role of job stress in the relationship between sustainable leadership and innovation strategies is measured. This situation is important as it constitutes a priority and originality factor for the study. The population of the study consists of employees working in the information and communication sector operating in Turkey. The sample is 402 employees working in the information and communication sector in the Ataşehir region of Istanbul province, selected by convenience sampling method. In the study, scale scores were calculated and kurtosis and skewness coefficients were analyzed to determine the suitability of the scores for normal distribution. Since the scores showed normal distribution, parametric test techniques were used in the study. The t-test and ANOVA test were used to analyze the differences in scale scores according to demographic characteristics. In addition, while analyzing the relationship between the scales with the correlation coefficient, the Process macro developed by Hayes was used for the regulatory role of the job stress scale in the effect of the sustainable leadership scale on the innovation strategies scale. As a result, in this analysis, it was observed that job stress did not have a significant regulatory effect on the relationship between sustainable leadership and innovation strategies.
