Abstract:This study explores the influence of personal values on destructive leader behaviour (henceforth as: d-l-b). Student participants completed a managerial assessment center presenting them with ambiguous leadership decisions and problems. D-l-b. was defined as harming organizational (here as: org-al.) members or striving for short-term gains over long-term org-al. goals. It is uncovered that individuals with self-enhancement values were more destructive than individuals with self-transcendence values, with the core values of power (self-enhancement) and universalism (self-transcendence) being most influential. In addition, it is also shown that individuals defined and structured leadership problems in a way reflecting their value systems etc.
