Abstract
A significant part of management literature deals with the personal characteristics of managers, attemptingto define what is required of a good manager. Further to this work, there has been some investigationof the extent to which differences in managerial functioning might be due to differences between the managersthemselves rather than the nature of their jobs or the type of organization in which they work. As part ofa larger study results were obtained for samples of public service and private enterprise managers on theGordon Survey of Personal Values. While personal factors such as age, area of work or educationalbackground did not correspond with differences in personal values, the public sector/private sector variablewas related to a difference in values, on one of the six scales in particular.
