“…At this stage, the previous period's excitement begins to decrease, and the short-term application results appear negatively in terms of benefits and costs. At this stage, doubts about the approach's validity begin to spread, and even the approach is criticized (Bilginoglu and Yozgat, 2017;Bondarouk et al, 2019). The fourth stage is the disappointment stage.…”

“…Management fashions generally start with an understanding away from the scientific approach to management, then become widespread and continue for a certain period and disappear over time following all fashions' nature. It must be admitted that the history of science is the theory cemetery; however, fashionable approaches seem to emerge seasonally and then disappear, very different from scientific theories (Klincewicz, 2017;Madsen et al, 2017;Bondarouk et al, 2019). When it is seen that fashionable approaches that emerged with the aim of rationalization and specialization have no equivalent in the field, their validity is gradually abandoned by making them a subject of discussion in academic circles.…”

This conceptual study's main purpose, conducted with an interpretative and critical understanding, is to draw attention to fashionable approaches carried out with rhetorical language without using the factual language of scientific knowledge. The approaches produced by this rhetorical language, which has been recently classified as fashion approaches, are unfortunately carried out with the concern of publishing, far from scientific concerns. Management fashions, which are carried out with the concern of quantity without paying attention to quantity, do not mean anything other than a waste of labor and time. Fashion approaches produced by taking the concepts out of context and using them arbitrarily do not make any sense other than a waste of effort and mind and do not contribute to the literature and practice.

“…However, every effort made in scientific activity can continue its existence as long as it finds an application area and has an accurate response. The importance of scientific activities, especially in a technical and rational field such as management, is measured by their operational value (Abrahamson, 1996;Bondarouk et al, 2019;Klincewicz, 2017;Piazza and Abrahamson, 2020). If any scientific activity is not just for intellectual enthusiasm, the activity in question must have a corresponding response in practical life.…”

“…Based on the half-century experience of management fashion, this study's results confirmed that fashion concepts progress in the form of continual adoption, application, insistence, disappointment, and abandonment despite the inaccuracies. There is still the risk of the emergence of fashionable approaches, which fashion industry makers have put forward and controversial management gurus as well-intentioned, resulting in disappointing time, labor, and cost losses in a relatively short period (Madsen et al, 2017;Madsen, 2020;Bondarouk et al, 2019;Zorn, 2017). It is necessary to carefully read the history of management theories against the said risk and look at the phenomenon of fashion approach with the possibilities of philosophy of science.…”

Background and purpose: Although management fashions have been discussed for nearly 30 years, a certain amount of time had to pass before the discussions were based on factual data. This research mainly aims to trace management approaches in some selected international indices over nearly half a century. In this study, the basic question of how the historical course of management fashions has developed has been answered by following the development course. Methods: The Descriptive Statistical method was preferred in the study because of its suitability to the subject’s essence, the purpose of the research, and the research question’s answer. The research was carried out based on the data collected about management trends by scanning the Web of Science and Scopus databases covering 1975-2020. Results: Management fashions follow rapid adoption, implementation, disappointment, and abandonment. Research results; show that the lack of knowledge and awareness of management fashions poses a significant waste of time and intellectual capital. This determination is crucial, especially for young researchers and new generation managers. Conclusion: In conclusion, it can be said that while new approaches that have tangible counterparts and can be grounded continue, approaches that do not have concrete counterparts disappear, causing a waste of time and mental effort.

“…Further, most of studies have been done in developed countries to identify the factors that influence the adoption of HRIS systems, in recent years. The interest in HRIS has grown in developed countries and a certain number of HRIS researches have been undertaken by scholars in US and Europeon context (Bondarouk, Ruël, & Roeleveld, 2019). Since there are few studies have been done in developing context (De Alwis,.…”
