Values of Russian Managers and Their Relationship With Corporate Values

Authors

Abstract

This article continues a discussion on personal and corporate values in management which was begun in the article “Corporate Values in Management of the Russian Companies”. Focus is made on values of managers and their comparison with values of the companies in which they work. The empirical base of research consists of survey data of 83 top, middle and low level managers which were collected in the spring of 2013. Results of research indicate the potential conflict of value orientations of managers and the companies that calls into question the implementation of management-by-values in the Russian companies. Results also point out a need of additional research concerning the degree of organizational commitment and involvement of the managers who implement the companies’ strategies.

Keywords:

personal and corporate values, terminal values, instrumental values, work values, business values, values congruence and conflict
