Resumo: This study aimed to evaluate the profile of personal values, predominant leadership styles, leadership effectiveness, the relationship between the balance of personal values and leadership effectiveness, the relationship between leadership effectiveness and organizational differentiation, and the relationship between the balance of personal values and organizational differentiation in a group of executives from several organizations. A closed rank order tool was developed and applied to evaluate the profile of personal values. A tool available in the market was used to identify the predominant leadership styles and leadership effectiveness of the aforementioned executives. The linear regression method for computing the linear correlation coefficient between variables was used to verify the relationship between the balance of personal values and leadership effectiveness in the 400 executives. The current Organizational Differentiation Model was applied to compute organizational differentiation, resulting in an organizational differentiation index for each of the 48 organizations involved in
this study. Linear regression was used for computing a linear correlation coefficient between the abovementioned variables to investigate the relationship between leadership effectiveness - taking the average value per organization - and organizational differentiation. The same procedure was followed to investigate the relationship between the balance of personal values - also taking the average value per organization - and organizational differentiation. The results revealed that executives are unbalanced in
their profile of personal values, in which economic and theoretical values predominate. This study also uncovered a lack of flexibility regarding leadership styles, in which styles of selling and sharing of ideas predominated. A further finding was that leadership effectiveness in the sample executives was moderate. Finally, the results demonstrated a high positive relationship between the balance of personal values and leadership effectiveness, showing that both variables have a high positive relationship with the overall success of organizations, measured by their organizational differentiation indexes.
