The Islamic Work Ethic in Arabia

Pages 507-519 | Published online: 04 Nov 2012
 

ABSTRACT

In an examination of the Islamic Work Ethic and the Individualism Scale (Ali, 1988) among 117 managers in Saudi Arabia, I found that the managers were highly committed to the Islamic Work Ethic and showed a moderate tendency toward individualism. In addition, the results provided further evidence of the reliability of both measures and that they were significantly and positively related to each other. Demographic and organizational variables had a minimal influence on managerial orientations.
