Chapter 3 – Developing Global Managers BA 352 K&K And more

Key Questions What is culture? How do cultures differ across countries? Why do we need to worry about other cultures? How does national culture impact behavior in organizations? What difficulties arise when transferring management practices across cultures?

Culture “the collective programming of the mind.” Hofstede, G.1984.Culture’s consequences: International differences in work-related values (abridged ed.). Beverly Hills, CA: Sage. p. 13

Cultural competence The ability to act appropriately with people of different cultures while minimizing culture shock for yourself and others

Dimensions of Culture - Hall Language Low Context Cultures Things are fully spelled out: words are important. High Context Cultures More implicit communication; assume commonality of knowledge and views. Meaning based on context - body language, setting, relationships (Schermerhorn, Hunt, & Osborn, 1998)

Context LOW context HIGH context Switzerland Germany Scandinavia United States France England Italy Spain Greece Arab Countries Chinese Japanese Samovar & Porter, 1991

Time Orientation Polychronic Cultures View time as flexible and multidimensional Monochronic Cultures View time as limited, precisely segmented and schedule driven Kinicki & Kreitner, 2003

Other Dimensions - Hall Use of Space personal “bubbles” of space architecture Office spaces Town layouts Religion personal rituals, holy days, allowable foods and beverages, morals and values (Schermerhorn, Hunt, & Osborn, 1998)

Values & Cultures - Hofstede Large cross-cultural research project Between over 100,000 employees of IBM in 49 different countries Surveyed about preferences in work related values Resulted in 4 value dimensions (later expanded to 5) (Hofstede,G., 2001)

Power distance “the extent to which the less powerful members…accept and expect that power is distributed unequally.” (Hofstede, 2001, p 3.) U.S. 40 Highest Malaysia 104 Lowest Austria 11

Individualism - Collectivism the tendency of a culture to emphasize individual or self-interests versus collective or group interests. (Hofstede, 2001, p 3.) Lowest Guatemala 6 Highest U.S 91

Uncertainty Avoidance “a society’s tolerance for uncertainty and ambiguity.” (Hofstede, 2001, p 3.) Lowest Singapore 8 U.S 46 Highest Greece 112

Masculinity-feminity “ distribution of roles between the genders.” (Hofstede, p.3) tendency of a culture to value “assertiveness and acquisition of money and things” vs. “concern with relationships, …others and the overall quality of life” (Adler, 2002, p. 61) Lowest Sweden 5 U.S 62 Highest Japan 95

Long term – Short term Orientation The tendency of a culture to emphasize values associated with the future vs “devotion to work ethic and tradition”. (Adler, 2002, p. 63) Lowest West Africa 16 U.S 29 Highest China, mainland 118 Taiwan 87

U.S. culture Individualism Equality Materialism Science and technology Progress and change Work and leisure Competition Adapted from Samovar & Porter, 2001
