The objective of the present study was to extend the findings of the work of Finegan (2000) in a different set up. In this study multiple organizations from a sector spread across India are considered. The study supports the argument that different clusters of values predict different facets of organizational commitment. The results of regression analyses revealed that 'affective', 'normative' and 'continuance' commitments were each predicted by 'humanity',' vision' and 'bottom-line' value clusters separately.

Abstract


The objective of the present study was to extend the findings of the work of Finegan (2000) in a different set up. In this study multiple organizations from a sector spread across India are considered. The study supports the argument that different clusters of values predict different facets of organizational commitment. The results of regression analyses revealed that 'affective', 'normative' and 'continuance' commitments were each predicted by 'humanity',' vision' and 'bottom-line' value clusters separately.
