SECTOR ANALYSIS AND USE OF MULTI-CRITERIA DECISION-MAKING TECHNIQUES IN THE SELECTION OF MANAGEMENT TOOLS: AN APPLICATION FOR HEALTH TOURISM INTERMEDIARY BUSINESSES WITH HYBRID ENTROPY-TOPSIS METHOD
Abstract
Management tools help companies to improve their performance. It’s not possible for businesses operating in environmental conditions to develop in all directions simultaneously. It’s a critical decision problem to determine which tools should be applied by selecting the priority directions. This research aims to provide a framework for selecting the most appropriate management tools based on Porter's five forces framework-based environmental analysis. Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods are used in this direction. The entropy method is used to determine the importance weights of Porter's five forces framework, and the TOPSIS method is used to determine the most appropriate management tool. The study has an original approach in that it combines Porter's five forces framework and management tools in the same context. The application was made for health intermediary businesses. In addition to guiding findings for healthcare intermediary businesses, it provides a detailed explanation of the implementation of this algorithm, allowing researchers to reproduce this methodology in other scenarios. The results indicate that the threat posed by the presence of new entrants is the strongest criterion. Agile management, total quality management, digital transformation, and change management tools have high suitability values according to the sector's characteristics.
