Abstract.The subject of entrepreneurship is an area in constant evolution, is a valid form of combating the phenomenon of unemployment, representing a virtuous response against a labor market that requires high flexibility to all parties who work there. For Schwartz “value” is a concept that an individual has a trans-situational purpose, he argues that the values being desirable states transcend specific situations and depict regulatory models used to judge and choose between different ways of behaving, so act from the principles driving in people’s lives. The present study aims to investigate the presence of significant relationships between the variables related to entrepreneurial skills and values . The sample is represented by a group of 101 Italian workers including 85 men ( 84%) and 15 women (16 %), all day between the ages of 30 and 39 who work in the public transport company ATAC S.p.A. The focus of this study is represented by the subject and his being intra-company both within the working environment, with its action and its influence on the economy and the social reality in which it operates.Keywords: Intrapreneurship,organizations, valuesAbstract.Il tema dell’imprenditorialità è un’area in costante evoluzione, la quale viene coinvolta ed utilizzata sia dalla disciplina psicologica, economica,ma anche sociale per ovviare al fenomeno della disoccupazione. Un altro costrutto preso in considerazione è il ‘’valore’’il quale secondo Schwartz è un concetto che un individuo ha di uno scopo transituazionale, egli sostiene che i valori essendo stati desiderabili trascendono le specifiche situazioni e raffigurano modelli normativi impiegati per giudicare e scegliere tra diversi modi di comportarsi, e fungono, quindi, da principi guida nella vita delle persone. La presente ricerca si pone l’obiettivo di indagare la presenza di relazioni significative tra le variabili legate alle competenze imprenditoriali ed i valori, secondo la teoria di riferimento legata ai valori di Schwarz, S. H. e Bilsky, W. (1987). Partendo da quanto proposto da Lidaka (2012), ci si propone di individuare influenze significative da parte dei valori, sui tratti imprenditoriali considerati nella presente ricerca.Si vogliono pertanto esplorare i legami tra questi due aspetti fondamentali dell’essere umano: valori da una parte, tratti caratteriali e competenze imprenditoriali, dall’altra.Il campione è rappresentato da un gruppo di 101 soggetti, ai quali è stato misurato, attraverso la somministrazione del questionario, sia i valori che le competenze imprenditoriali che si inseriscono nella scelta lavorativa. I dati sono stati raccolti su un campione di 101 lavoratori italiani di cui 85 uomini (84%) e 15 donne (16%), tutti dì età compresa tra i 30 ed i 39 anni. Il focus di questo studio, dunque, è rappresentato dal soggetto e dal suo essere intraimprenditoriale all’interno del contesto lavorativo, dalla sua azione e dall’influenza sull’economia e sulla realtà sociale nella quale opera (Battistelli, Favretto, 2003).Keywords: Intrapreneurship- Entrepreneurship- Values- Locus of control- Self-efficacy-Engagment- Employ-ability- Proactive personality.

Several studies demonstrate that Schwartz’s (2006) theory of human values is valid in cultures previously beyond its range. We measured the 10 value constructs in the theory with the Portrait Values Questionnaire (PVQ), a new and less abstract method. This study explores the influence of values in a professional choose, focusing on the associations between social and professional background. The findings support the construct validity of the test. The results suggest, there is a matching between values and occupational choose, there are evident differences between gender and age. These results confirm the international literature about different gender and value system’s. Its theoretical meaning in the context of Schwartz’s culture-level value theory is discussed.
