Social representation theory posits that individuals are influenced not only through the collective behaviour of their friends and colleagues but also through their life experiences (Penz, 2002). Because the working environment constitutes a large proportion of an individuals life it is interesting to explore how perception of work experiences may evolve in the business context where hierarchical influence shapes performance and work-related attitude. Management behaviour may evoke positive or negative effects on the way employees approach the tasks that are set through organisational strategy. This is believed to be influenced by personality.
