| Abstract: | The authors develop and test hypotheses about similarities and differences in the importance of values among managers in 12 Latin American countries by drawing upon studies from the social sciences. Using the Rokeach Value Survey, data from 1015 owner-managers of small businesses indicated convergence among values relating to group interests, but significant variation among values serving individual interests. Additionally, several groups of countries were identified as culturally similar, whereas Brazil and Mexico remained culturally discrete. |
