Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The spectral management type inventory (SMTI) is an analytical instrument designed to enable people to identify their personal management style. Examines the reliability and the validity of the SMTI questionnaire and the associations between the different management styles and work-related variables of managers in various organizations. The SMTI was found to be a reliable and a valid tool for assessing management types. It may serve to enhance self-awareness in the individual manager as well as improving organizational effectiveness. Discusses future opportunities for research and applications.
