Abstract
The businessman's role in politics is an old question which resurfaces unfailingly each election year. Both those who favor and those who disfavor executive political involvement give many compelling reasons. The real dilemma, however, belongs to those within the corporation who determine policy: what course should the corporation take either to elicit or prohibit political participation in its executives? What are the sources of executive influences? The authors sampled 465 middlelevel executives in five medium to large industrial corporations. The research revealed that the majority of executives are influenced by their organizational peers and superiors. The authors then go on to discuss the implications of this influence for corporate policymakers.
