New organizational architectures oriented in the search for sustainability require a new thinking on the organizational and personal values as well as the coherent behaviors in this cultural context. Thus, the current study aimed to investigate the organizational and personal values as well as the individual ecological behavior in a company included in this sustainability context. An exploratory and descriptive research was adopted by using a quantitative approach. By means of a survey with the employees, it was applied an instrument composed of three scales, the Inventory of Organizational Values, by Oliveira and Tamayo (2004), the Questionnaire of Value Profiles (QVP, in Portuguese), by Tamayo and Porto (2009) and the Scale of Ecological Behavior (ECE, in Portuguese), by Pato and Tamayo (2006). The predominant company and people s values were identified along with the ecological behaviors that they present. The results also pointed out that many behavior acts are not usual habits although they state that they are aware about this theme but do not act effectively on it. Among the main findings there are the relationships found in these organizational and personal values. Concerned to the relations between the ecological values and behavior only the personal values showed relations with these behaviors and they showed to be different from the initial presumed values.
