Abstract
This research explores the relationship between managerial values enactment, as a construct of managerial behavioural integrity, and employee trust in management. Additionally, the effect that managerial values enactment has on several employee attitudinal and behavioural outcomes from this relationship is also presented. The employee attitudes and behavioural outcomes include employee values enactment, turnover motivation and turnover intention, affective and continuance commitment, job satisfaction, and individual and organisational citizenship behaviours. Correlation and regression analyses of questionnaire data from a sample of 222 employees at an Australian state government agency involved in major engineering project management activities found significant results among predicted relationships between managerial values enactment and employee trust in management, and employee attitudes and behavioural outcomes. These results indicate that this organisation has high levels of managerial values enactment, and that employee attitudes and behavioural outcomes have been influenced by the managerial values enactment, including trust in management.
