The demographic correlates studied in the present research are management level, mode of recruitment, number of years in service, type of organization, age, education, type of family and wife's working position. The sample consists of 200 managers of level-II and level-III from manufacturing and service sectors. For assessing the Triguna of the managers, Vedic Personality Inventory by David B. Wolf (1998) was used. The Hindi version of Vedic Personality Inventory was also prepared by the researcher. The findings suggest that organizational variables have a more profound role in influencing Triguna as compared to personal variables. The organizational variables which have yielded the most significant effect on Triguna are the management level, type of organization and years in service. Among personal variables, the level of education has yielded significant effect on Triguna. Family structure has a significant effect on Sattva and Tamas gunas.
