ORGANIZATIONAL IDENTIFICATION AND ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE IN FOOTBALL TEAMS REVIEW OF THE IMPACT ON TEAM SUCCESS (TFF LEAGUE 1 EXAMPLE)

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine the impact of organizational identification and organizational culture on team success. The universe of the research is the 18 teams in the TFF 1. League. The sample of the study consisted of 324 people from 14 teams who agreed to participate voluntarily in the study. A mixed method model was used in the research. In order to measure the organizational identification levels of the participants, the "Organizational Identification Scale" developed by Mael and Ashforth (1989,1992) was utilized to evaluate the organizational culture levels, and the "Organization Culture Assesment Instrument" developed by Cameron and Quinn (1999-2006) was used as well. According to the quantitative analysis results of the research, the concept of organizational identification has no statistical effect on team success. In terms of organizational culture, apart from Clan culture, the sub-dimensions of Market, Hierarchy and Adhocracy cultures were also found to have an impact on team success. It was concluded that the quantitative and qualitative data used in the research support each other.
