Atatürk'ün vizyoner liderliği ve tam bağımsız Türkiye Cumhuriyeti vizyonunun Westley ve Mintzberg'in vizyoner liderlik modeli çerçevesinde değerlendirilmesi

Abstract

Environments where uncertainty and change are necessary pave the way for the emergence of visionary leadership, which is a leadership understanding unique to the situation. Great Leader Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, who illuminated the environment like a torch at a time when the Ottoman Empire came out of the World War I and a nation was in despair, uncertainty and hopelessness, presented a vision of the future to his nation and emerged as a visionary leader. So much so that this vision is to establish a new fully independent Turkish state based on national sovereignty. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk made important decisions and activities during his journey from Damascus to Istanbul and from there to Samsun and Anatolia. Atatürk's leadership approach as a guide in today's political ground and the uncertainty and change-intensive environment experienced by organizations contains important notes. In this context, the development of the vision of the Independent Republic of Turkey put forward by Atatürk was handled within the framework of the Visionary Leadership Model of Westley and Mintzberg at the point of historical events, and an evaluation was made on the theoretical ground regarding the origins of the Republic, which completed its 100th anniversary. In this way, it is aimed to contribute to the visionary leadership literature by raising awareness about the visionary aspect of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of the Republic of Turkey, which is emphasized by the world, and by presenting information about the establishment of the Republic in a systematic way in the historical process.
