The study has examined the work values and organizational commitment of public and private sector executives in Pakistan. The sample included 210 middle level executives from various public and private sector organizations. The instruments used were: Survey of Work Values (Wallack, Goodale, Wilting, & Smith, 1971) and the Organization Commitment Questionnaire (Tayyab & Tariq, 2001). It was assumed that private sector executives will be more committed to their organizations and will show intrinsic orientation toward work compared to public sector executives. The results indicated significant differences between the two sectors on variables of work values and organizational commitment. The private sector executives had higher mean scores on intrinsic work values. There was a significant positive correlation between intrinsic work values and organizational commitment of private sector executives. The results have been discussed in the context of prevailing social values of different strata of Pakistani society.
