Some management theories believes that Muslim organizations have western culture and Muslim executive have internalised western values; some orgnizational theories hold a diametrically opposite view that Muslims as a community and Muslim executives as well have not given up Islamic values and their companies definitely have a strong imprint of Islamic culture.

This research investigated the internalization and application of value systems–Islamic and western–of Muslim executives in their Organizations located in countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan, India, Malaysia, Indonesia and Saudi Arabia. Further this study has also brought out all those personal values which have transcended the organizational boundaries, i.e. those values which are instrumental in shaping the corporate culture. The question of the impact of executives’ values on the styles of management was investigated as well. The findings are presented in this book.
