Özet
This study aims to examine the relationship between authentic leadership and entrepreneurship orientation perceptions in exporting companies with increasing and decreasing export performances. Objective data was compiled from Turkish Exporters Assembly (TIM) publications between the years 2013 and 2018 to separate the exporters in the research universe into two separate export performances and the subjective data were collected by using the survey method. The sample comprises 438 mid-to-high-level white-collar employees from 21 companies operating in exporting goods. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was used for validity as the theoretical structures of the scales were revealed by the researchers who developed the scales. Then reliability analysis performed and finally the relationship between authentic leadership and entrepreneurship orientation perceptions in exporting companies with different export performances was examined by linear regression analysis. The research findings indicated that there were significant relationships between authentic leadership and the entrepreneurship orientation for the companies with both increasing and decreasing export performances. Considering authentic leadership and entrepreneurship orientation scale averages together, higher averages were observed in the group whose export performance increased. The research findings also show that, when the authentic leadership scale increased, then it causes an increase in entrepreneurship orientation scores for both groups.
