    Intersectional dimensions of hubris and power: a linguistic analysis of female executive discourse in Turkey
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2025) Arslan, Aykut; Akturan, Abdulkadir; Yener, Serdar
    PurposeThis study aims to investigate the intersectional dimensions of gender, familial affiliation, socioeconomic status and industry sector in shaping the linguistic manifestations of hubris and power among female CEOs and senior executives in Turkey. By applying intersectionality theory to leadership communication, the research examines how overlapping identities influence executive rhetoric, specifically expressions of hubris, within a context that blends Eastern collectivist cultural values and Western corporate governance practices.Design/methodology/approachThe research uses qualitative linguistic discourse analysis of 44 secondary-source interviews with female CEOs and senior executives in Turkey, published between 2017 and 2025 in reputable business magazines and company publications. The analysis is grounded in intersectionality theory and examines multiple identity dimensions including gender, familial affiliation, socioeconomic status, educational background, international exposure and sectoral context. Python programming was used for text pre-processing, keyword frequency extraction and pattern matching to facilitate robust and reproducible data parsing, with two independent coders manually identifying hubris markers and speech style indicators.FindingsThe study reveals distinctive patterns in how intersecting identities shape the rhetorical construction of hubris and power in female executive discourse. Family-affiliated female leaders leverage dynastic legitimacy in their rhetoric, enhancing perceived authority, whereas nonfamily female leaders rely more heavily on professional achievements and adaptive communication strategies. Educational background and international exposure significantly influence leaders' rhetorical styles, with internationally educated executives using more sophisticated, globally oriented language. Sectoral contexts further modulate leadership communication, with female executives in traditionally male-dominated sectors adopting more assertive, metrics-driven language compared to those in consumer-oriented sectors.Originality/valueThis research extends traditional analyses of gendered discourse by revealing how overlapping identities influence executive rhetoric in a non-Western context. By applying intersectionality to leadership communication in Turkey's unique corporate landscape, the study contributes to the broader understanding of hubris and power in leadership communication while enriching intersectional scholarship in management and organizational studies. The findings provide valuable insights for understanding how women leaders navigate complex identity intersections in their communication strategies across different organizational contexts and cultural settings.

    Moral identity and the ethics of digital piracy: a self-regulatory model of contextual reasoning andreligious norms
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2026) Arslan, Aykut; Yener, Serdar; Akturan, Abdulkadir
    PurposeThis study aims to discuss the joint influence of moral identity, religiosity and situational ethics on digital piracy intentions. It proposes a self-regulatory model whereby moral identity sets up the main motivational structure in guiding moral behaviour, supported by two further dimensions: firstly, religiosity inputting culturally based normative content into the structure; secondly, situational ethics, representing the individual's context-dependent reasoning about morality.Design/methodology/approachA cross-sectional inquiry has been taken up with 1,020 Turkish university students as a sample. Validated scales measured the dimensions of situational ethics (relativism), religiosity, moral identity and digital piracy intentions. It is proposed to test the hypothesis through moderated mediation analysis whereby moral identity would act as a moderator and religiosity would be a mediator in the relationship of situational ethics with piracy intentions.FindingsThe results show that situational ethics does not directly predict piracy intentions. However, religiosity significantly mediates this relationship, and this mediation effect is conditional upon the level of moral identity. Specifically, the more central morality is to one's identity, the more likely religious norms translate into reduced piracy intentions, even when situational justifications are present.Originality/valueThe study offers a novel hierarchical framework for understanding digital piracy as a morally negotiated act, not simply a legal transgression. By centring moral identity as a self-regulatory mechanism, it advances the literature on digital ethics and moral psychology and offers implications for educational interventions, religious messaging and digital platform policy design.

    Organizational Learning in Complex AI Environments
    (IGI Global, 2025) Kilinç, Sebahattin; Akturan, Abdulkadir; Yener, Serdar
    This chapter describes how the dynamic and rapidly changing business world develops, loses or reshapes its dynamic capabilities with the support of AI using an organizational learning approach. In today's world, businesses are experiencing tough transformations, especially with the rapid spread of AI. Today, organisations need to improve their dynamic capabilities (DC) to gain sustainable competitive advantage. DCs are defined as a firm's ability to integrate, build, and restructure internal and extrinsic competencies, and require effective resource use in the face of environmental change. AI can increase the data processing and analysis capabilities of businesses in fiercely competitive conditions, their ability to recognize complex patterns in large data sets, and their ability to generate insights from data. © 2026 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.

    The Dark Side of ESG Ratings: Future Challenges for Corporate Strategies
    (Natl Research Univ Higher Sch Economics, 2025) Arslan, Aykut; Yener, Serdar; Akturan, Abdulkadir
    This paper critically examines the methodological inconsistencies of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) ratings and their impact on financial decision-making. While ESG scores are intended to guide investors and policymakers toward responsible business practices, discrepancies in rating methodologies raise concerns about their reliability and strategic value. Using a conceptual and theoretical framework, the paper integrates perceptions from institutional theory, signaling theory, and the sociology of valuation to explore how ESG ratings shape corporate sustainability narratives. It also draws on empirical studies to demonstrate inconsistencies in ESG scores and their consequences for financial markets. The study identifies three primary flaws in ESG ratings: (1) Divergent methodologies lead to inconsistent scores across rating agencies; (2) Firms prioritize ESG disclosure over actual sustainability improvements, fostering greenwashing; and (3) The lack of transparency in ESG rating methodologies distorts investment signals, leading to mispricing risks and misaligned sustainability incentives. Additionally, the absence of strong social indicators within ESG frameworks may contribute to the ineffectiveness of these ratings in truly capturing corporate sustainability. T he paper does not provide primary empirical analysis but synthesizes existing literature to propose a refined understanding of ESG ratings. It highlights the need for future research on regulatory standardization, AI-driven ESG assessments, and independent verification mechanisms. The findings suggest that investors should not rely solely on ESG ratings when making financial decisions. Instead, they should combine multiple sustainability metrics and qualitative assessments to avoid misleading investment choices. A lack of ESG rating standardization risks undermining public trust in sustainable finance and corporate responsibility efforts. Furthermore, the insufficient emphasis on social indicators within ESG ratings may hinder their ability to promote genuine corporate accountability and social progress. This paper contributes to the growing critique of ESG rating methodologies by arguing that without regulatory intervention, ESG scores will continue to serve as unreliable indicators of corporate sustainability.
