linkages between ten individual-level subdimensions of values from SVS and the outlined characteristics of managers’ behaviour;

linkages between four individual-level high-order dimensions, which are based on ten dimensions of values and the outlined characteristics of managers’ behaviour;

linkages between two individual-level values dimensions, namely individualism and collectivism, and the outlined characteristics of managers’ behaviour.

These associations offer foundations for empirical research on the impact of personal values on managers’ behaviour and formulation of research questions and/or hypotheses in that frame.

In the context of recommendations for utilization of the proposed framework, it is necessary also to include several of the most important personal and organizational drivers of managers’ behaviour in organizations, due to their possible impact. According to the research practice and acknowledged impacts of various personal and organizational drivers on individuals’ behaviour, we would suggest inclusion of the following control variables, namely: (1) age, (2) gender, (3) education, (4) position in organization, (5) organization size, (6) industry of organization. Inclusion of personal and organizational demographic characteristics in the research will also provide an answer to the question of whether managers’ behaviour is either more value driven or more influenced by various personal and organizational characteristics.

In the next section, we outline the proposed instrument for surveying and the related measures, which will be used for examining the managers’ behaviour and their values in Slovenia (in Chap. 5) and in Austria (in Chap. 6). Reliability analysis results as well as detailed reliability coefficients for latent variables are reported in these next two chapters.
