Sažetak
Values are guiding principles adopted by primary socialization in early childhood within the family. Theoretical discussion on education includes reflections on human values, the culture of society as well as the organizational culture of the institutions in which education takes place. Educational workers working directly with children, pupils and students influence the shaping of their values and create the culture of the institution. The aim of the research was to determine: value types and categories of higher values (self-transcendence, self-enhancement, openness to change, conservation) of educational workers; differences in value types and categories of higher values with regard to demographic characteristics and the correlation of categories of higher values and dimensions of organizational culture. Total of 715 respondents participated in the research. The results showed that educators differ in value types but share the same higher values. Women and men differ in their assessment of higher values, younger educators assess openness to change more importantly than older colleagues, and there is a positive correlation between the dimensions of organizational culture and higher value categories.
