Abstract

Aim of the research is to reveal the antecedents and consequences of boreout syndrome in managers and to develop solution suggestions. In this context, a qualitative research was designed and feelings and thoughts of individuals working as managers in Karaman were consulted. The data obtained from the interviews were examined with content and descriptive techniques and analyzed with Maxqda software. As a result, additional antecedents and consequences different from which found in the literature were identified for the factors leading to boreout syndrome in managers. Antecedents were identified as seeing the same faces all the time, working at a desk/indoors, technical disruptions, environmental pressure, and virtuality, while consequences were identified as daydreaming/planning. Finally, a model was developed based on the findings, some theoretical and practical contributions were presented, and recommendations were made.Bu araştırmanın amacı boreout sendromunun öncül ve ardıllarının yöneticiler özelinde ortaya konularak çözüm önerilerinin geliştirilmesidir. Bu kapsamda nitel bir araştırma tasarlanarak Karaman’da yöneticilik görevinde bulunan bireylerin boreout sendromuna yönelik duygu ve düşüncelerine başvurulmuştur. Mülakatlardan elde edilen veriler içerik analizi ve betimsel analiz tekniği ile incelenerek Maxqda programıyla analiz edilmiştir. Analizler sonucunda yöneticilerde boreout sendromuna yol açan etmenlere, literatürde bulunandan farklı ek öncül ve ardıllar saptanmıştır. Saptanan öncüller sürekli aynı yüzleri görme, masa başı/kapalı alanda çalışma, teknik aksaklıklar, çevre baskısı ve sanallık; ardıllar ise hayal kurma/planlama olarak belirlenmiştir. Son olarak araştırmanın ortaya koyduklarıyla bir model geliştirilmiş, birtakım teorik ve pratik katkılar sunulmuş ve öneriler geliştirilmiştir.
