Özet:

The purpose of the study is to investigate the impact of employees’ intrapreneurship trends on their organizational commitment levels and the mediating effect of democratic-participative management style perceptions about their managers. The universe of the research is the banking sector. The sample data is formed with the participation of 215 people working in bank branches in Istanbul. Two separate methods have been used in the research for two separate hypotheses. The effect of intrapreneurship on organizational commitment is analyzed by hierarchical regression method. The mediating role of the democratic-participative management style is analyzed by structural equation model analysis. The results obtained from research findings indicate that; the proactivity dimension of intrapreneurship has an effect on affective commitment; while the proactivity and the innovation dimensions of intrapreneurship have effects on continuity commitment. According to the results of mediating analysis, it seems that the democratic-participative management style does not have a mediating role.
