Hello, everybody!
I am conducting a study to measure organizational culture through HR (managerial) practices . I need to find those practices that convey a series of work values adapted from the Schwartz's (1992, 1994, 2004) individual general value model, which is supposed to be comprehensive.
The issue here is that, as Hofstede (1990) noticed, there are very weak correlations between perceived managerial practices and organizational values. Yet I think that if I look to closely match the practices with the work values and then test the factor structure of the former, I should arrive to approximativelly the same dimensions structure as that postulated and tested by Schwartz for the individual system of values, except, perhaps, for some dimensions that are atypical for the business world, as we know that the work values are less differentiated than the general personal values (Sagie and Elizur, 1995).
What I wanted to ask you was to help me find a comprehensive list of HR management practices that cover all the HR function areas and, eventually, after I build the two lists of work values and HRM practices respectively, to help me match them by responding to a short questionnaire that I will construct.
This preliminary study serves exclusively academic purposes. I'm doing my PhD in HRM, with a thesis on the moderating effects of work values alignements at three levels - national, organizational and individual - upon the relationship between HR practices (systems) and the HR outcomes (and possibly, organizational outcomes. )
If there is anyone interested in this topic, I'd be glad to echange ideas with them.

Have a nice day!
