RT Article T1 Executive values and the ethics of company politics: Some preliminary findings JF Journal of business ethics VO 8 IS 1 SP 15 OP 29 A1 Zahra, Shaker A. LA English PB Springer Science + Business Media B. V YR 1989 UL https://www.ixtheo.de/Record/1785599070 AB A model of correlates of executives' views of organizational politics was presented. The model incorporated three sets of variables: executives' background, values and attitudes. Data collected from 302 managers were used to validate the model. The results showed that precursors of executive perceptions of the ethics and effect of company politics were different. Values were stronger than background variables in explaining executives' views of company politics.
