Abstract

Value orientations are the key components important for the development of the individual; they reflect their characteristics as individuals, and they are also regulators of behavior. In the context of the current changes in social, economic and political spheres of the Russian society the question of studying value orientations in different social groups becomes especially essential. The social stratum of young managers is of the particular interest. The paper studies the issue of value orientations development among the social and professional group of young managers of business organizations.

The paper analyzes the main concepts describing the process of formation of value orientations. The author also examines the main approaches to the concept of “value” within the framework of the sociological theory. Based on the analysis, comparison and generalization the concept of “value” is considered as the personification of the best, desirable and necessary for the individual, which determines the choice of means and goals of action. The author describes a model of the mechanism of value orientations formation in young managers of business organizations. It is presented as a process influenced by a complex of various factors. Each element of the researched mechanism is revealed. The distinctive characteristics of the concept of “value orientations” are presented: they are situational, selective and individual.

The author comes to the conclusion that young managers should be viewed as a social and professional group under the age of 40 with a specific value system that affects professional activity as well as personal and social relations. Depending on the stage of the managerial career, the ratio of the key factors influencing the formation of value orientations changes, which determines the behavior of the manager.
