Psychological Characteristics of Managers Acting in State Administration and in Municipalities

• Authors: Pavel Prunner

Abstracts

EN

The author presents the results of a research focused on finding a number of psychological characteristics of state administration and municipality managers who influence the school system at a regional level. The research, which was oriented towards determination of the value structure and preferences, comes out of the premise that values quite significantly regulate and correct human behaviour. The empiric probe signalizes that the tested persons do not show value recondition consistent with their professional roles and, at the same time, it also aspires to map mutual ties of the researched value aspects with other personality characteristics.
