Value may be considered as a force of act behind or behaviour which comes through socialization and it is transmitted to the next generation with some modification. For example, the categories like, such as instrumental and terminal values have been used by (Rokeach, 97); Occupational values by (Kanungo & Bhatnagar, 1978); socio-cultural values by (Sinha & Sinha, 1997); and work values by (Super, 1970). These are special usage of the term values. For example, it is an individually held conception of what is desirable with respect to one’s work activity in an organizational context. It is bedrock of any organizational culture. Work values of managers and workers help in achieving the mission and objectives of any corporate sector. Keeping in view these kinds of positions with regard to eastern and western notion of value preferences for the organizational functioning, the findings clearly indicated toward the lack of validity for such polarities. The interpretation might emerge from the assertion that western values by sanatifying the divisionness of sectional interests have apparently consolidated such institutions as the Union. Since the Eastern cultures lack a historical tradition of recalcitrant labour movement the possibilities exists for management in collectivisitic Asian Societies.
