Formalized ethics in organization becomes the basis of rigid social control, pressure and negative authorization.

The author considers contempropary ways of personnel recruitment in the organizations and stresses that the creation of a private, national management system, based on the integration of features of the national mentality, using aspects of global management experience is very essential point.
