Abstract

Building organizational behavior for managements in businesses is rather challenging. Although in some cases, due to the external forces such as competition, risk of unemployment, balance of payments etc. it happens itself in the right way, in many more cases managers should handle it carefully delicately. For this purpose the leader plays an important role, when s/he directs the whole organization with his/her words and instructions. On the other hand, thanks to the developing machine learning algorithms and data available on line, text mining has been used for information extraction and semantics. There are plenty of successful studies done via text mining for business. In this study we used text mining tools to analyze leaders words at universities in Turkey. We extracted meaningful key words used by university rectors in their main speeches and clustered universities around those words. Then again, we ranked and clustered the same universities with parameters like publications done, citations, number of students per professors etc. We overlaid two clusters to see if they any match. Our study has showed that top 15 and bottom 15 universities in the ranked table make two different clusters again when it is done with universities rectors words. Our study simply says that leaders words may give clue both about the organizational behavior and general profile of the organization.
