Values system and Management Behaviours of the Monotheistic Druze community's managers based on the Schwartz theory of human basic values

Radwan Mansour

The study is discussing the values that are belonging to the Druze community managers and do the values they arise in still route them in managerial style. The Monotheistic "Druze" community is a unique group of ethnic, religious, cultural, and geographic aspects. It is having some incredibly unique characteristics, possessing an identity based on a mystic emotional connection which originates from heart and soul, a cross-border connection that brings together the ancient past, the present and the future without territorial identity. Values of tradition, conformity, benevolence, universalism, and security have negative correlation coefficient with many other values. These values reflect social values with responsibility and loyalty to the collective and compatible with the religious values directing the laws and statutes of the monotheistic "Druze". Strong, positive correlations were found and in direct ratio between some values and age. Reverse ratio to age was found in hedonism and stimulation values so that young managers (aged 20-50) had more stimulation. Most of Monotheistic “Druze” managers, in their daily routine, were on the axis between transformational leadership and transactional leadership. A charismatic leadership phases were shown sometimes among young managers. Religious managers were with many instances of social leadership to transformational leadership passing in transactional leadership. The conclusion is that the managers of the monotheistic Druze community maintain the values they were raised and educated by, even when they are in a managerial status. And still holding the values that preserve their unique character and the values that characterize their survival elements.
