Title:	Is it the Brazilian way? extending the comparison of public and private organizations
Authors:	Renata Simões Guimarães e Borges Jonathon Mote
Abstract:	This study investigates the differences in select organizational charac- teristics, managerial practices and work attitudes among 670 public and private sector workers in Brazil. The results indicate that in some aspects there is a moderation effect by type of organization. For example,when public employees score high on autonomy and task significance, perceive organizational practices as favourable, and keep membership in the same organization, they tend to be more satisfied than private sector workers. Overall, the findings highlight the need for more international comparisons to gain a better understanding of the public-private distinction.
