Personal Values and Managerial Behaviour: A Comparative Analysis from Central Europe

Description

This book investigates the influence of personal values on managerial behaviour in modern organizations, and how this impacts upon company performance and relationships.

Providing a new methodological and contextual framework which goes beyond established measurements, the book offers insights into the most important studies in the area and will provide valuable reading to academics in the fields of management, organization and HRM, as well as practitioners and policy-makers.
