Abstract: Abstract The main purpose was after adapting Q-POVC and Q-MC-CSR questionnaires, to form the diagnostic instrument “Questionnaire of values congruence and management culture (Q-VC-MC)”, testing it in a relatively small sample. The formation and adaptation of the questionnaire consisted of the following stages: analysis of scientific sources; analysis of the already existing instruments, merging of selected instruments; exploratory research using the adapted instrument; psychometric analysis of the obtained results; rectification and correction of deficiencies; preparation of a basic tool for conducting surveys. In order to identify the validity of the adapted diagnostic instrument, a questionnaire survey was conducted, involving employees of 303 Lithuanian business organizations. The diagnostic instrument “Questionnaire of values congruence and Management Culture (Q-VC-MC)” was developed by adapting the following questionnaires: “Questionnaire of Personal and Organizational Values Congruence for Employee (Q-POVC-115)” and “Questionnaire of Management Culture in Preparedness of the Organisation to Become Socially Responsible (Q-MC-CSR-177)”. The identified high psychometric characteristics of the diagnostic instrument “Questionnaire of Values Congruence and Management Culture (Q-VC-MC-110)” show that it is suitable for measuring the set even in a relatively small sample.
