Title: Examining the Effect of Macroeconomic Variables on BIST100 Index Returns Using ARDL Approach
Publication-Status: Published
Abstract: This study focuses on macroeconomic variables believed to be related to stock market indices, drawing on both domestic and international sources. In this context, the effects of the Bond Index (BONO), Consumer Price Index (CPI), Deposit Index (MEV), and the US Dollar to Turkish Lira Exchange Rate (USDTR) on the BIST100 Index (BIST) were analyzed for the period from 2005 to 2023 on a monthly basis. Using this data, we applied the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) method to derive empirical results. The research findings indicate that over the long term, the BONO, CPI, and MEV variables have a statistically significant impact on the BIST index. However, the influence of USDTR on the BIST is statistically insignificant. While the BONO and CPI variables positively affect the BIST, the MEV variable has a negative impact.

Title: How Organizations Address Resistance: Understanding Change Management
Publication-Status: Published
Abstract: This paper critically examines the types of resistance encountered during organizational change and explores how organizations address these challenges through the change management process. It provides practical examples to enhance the understanding of resistance, as well as the stressors induced by both resistance and change. Furthermore, it discusses how effective training programs can help individuals navigate these phases. Successful change management integrates strategies to support both individuals and organizations in adapting to evolving circumstances. Since the mid-20th century, frameworks like Kurt Lewin’s “Three-Stage Model” and William Bridges’ “Transition Model” have outlined key approaches for managing change. Despite these contributions, resistance remains a significant challenge, arising from personal, intellectual, and cultural factors. As primary agents of change, organizational leaders must utilize structured processes, tools, and models—such as ADKAR and McKinsey’s 7S—to effectively address resistance and implement change. This paper delves into the complexities of organizational change, the critical role of leadership, and strategies to mitigate resistance, highlighting the importance of cultivating a culture of adaptability to ensure long-term success in a dynamic business environment.
