Implications of individualistic and collectivistic orientations for management developmentPiek, Johannes Jacobus 06 1900 (has links)
The Apartheid Philosophy resulted in creating a heterogenous society in South
Africa, with each group having its own distinctive culture and value-orientation.
Organizational values, influenced by personal value-orientation employed by
White managers, could be challenged by appointing members of this
heterogenous society into positions previously held by White managers,
thereby emphasizing the need for congruence between organizational and
personal value-orientation.
The literature study revealed not only the existence of both Individualism and
Collectivism, but the co-existence thereof in individual value-orientation and the
existence of Ubuntuism as another form of collectivism - the latter being
analogous to humanism. Through this empirical study the value-orientations of
managers from either Black or White cultural backgrounds, were assessed,
using a value-orientation questionnaire. The findings of the present study,
although inconclusive, demonstrated that Black and White managers do not
differ significantly in terms of their value-orientation at work. / Industrial and Organisational Psychology / M.A. (Industrial Psychology)
