The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has a very small population of national citizens, so it relies on foreign workers who bring a range of cultures with them, resulting in a unique multi-cultural context. Unlike Western countries, such as the UK, Canada and Australia, workers are unable to permanently migrate to the UAE, so instead they hold temporary, expatriate status. This exploratory study focuses on the experiences of internationally qualified, expatriate nurses in hospitals in Al Ain, gathered by qualitative interviews. Twenty-one registered nurses participated in this study. The nurses faced challenges associated with language requirements and differing cultural expectations, and displayed limited acculturation, which compromised their ability to provide appropriate care for patients. The temporary nature of the work, cultural expectations, language difficulties and potential improvements are discussed. The findings have important implications for organizations that employ large groups of staff from overseas in all sectors. This article contributes to knowledge of expatriates’ challenges in the UAE and highlights the difficulties of working in a diverse environment, leading to a range of actions being recommended for managers.
阿拉伯联合酋长国(UAE)的国民人口非常少,因此它依赖于带来一系列文化的外国工人,从而形成了独特的多元文化背景。与英国、加拿大和澳大利亚等西方国家不同,工人无法永久移民到阿联酋,因此他们只能持有临时的外籍人士身份。本探索性研究的重点是通过定性访谈收集的具有国际资格的外籍护士在Al Ain医院的经验。21名注册护士参与了本研究。护士面临着与语言要求和不同文化期望相关的挑战,并表现出有限的文化适应,这损害了他们为患者提供适当护理的能力。讨论了工作的临时性质、文化期望、语言困难和可能的改进。研究结果对所有部门雇用大量海外员工的组织具有重要意义。本文有助于了解外籍人士在阿联酋面临的挑战,并强调了在多样化环境中工作的困难,从而为管理人员提供了一系列建议。

In this paper, leadership tasks and stakeholder response during transboundary crisis management are analyzed based on findings from Hofstede’s study, GLOBE Project, and theoretical concepts in cross-cultural management. Accordingly, a conceptual model of transcultural crisis management is proposed. Seven propositions (P) and sixteen sub-propositions (SP) are developed and then tested using the case method. The case of the COVID-19 pandemic is studied to note the effects of cross-cultural differences and intercultural communication in the pre-crisis, crisis, and post-crisis stages. Cross-cultural differences are found to affect sense-making, decision-making, sense-giving and meaning-making during pre-crisis and crisis management stages. Implications of these findings and further research agenda are discussed.
本文根据Hofstede的研究成果、GLOBE项目以及跨文化管理的理论概念,分析跨界危机管理中的领导任务和利益相关者反应。在此基础上,提出了跨文化危机管理的概念模型。提出了7个命题(P)和16个子命题(SP),然后使用案例方法进行了测试。以2019冠状病毒病大流行为例,研究了危机前、危机中和危机后阶段的跨文化差异和跨文化交流的影响。在危机前和危机管理阶段,跨文化差异会影响意义的形成、决策、意义的给予和意义的形成。讨论了这些发现的意义和进一步的研究议程。

This study examines the influence of perceived organisational support (POS) on expatriates’ cross-cultural adjustment, assignment completion and job satisfaction in the sub-Saharan African context. While multinationals depend on expatriates to manage their foreign subsidiaries, successful expatriation is influenced by expatriates’ cross-cultural adjustment to their host country’s environment. Survey responses from 229 expatriates were analysed using partial least squares path modelling. The results reveal that support from their organisations relates positively to expatriate adjustment, assignment completion and job satisfaction. The empirical results also demonstrate that expatriate adjustment partially mediates the relationship between POS and assignment completion and job satisfaction. Furthermore, findings suggest that assignment completion positively influences job satisfaction and partially mediates the association between POS and job satisfaction. The findings of this research have important theoretical and practical implications for multinational companies operating in sub-Saharan Africa.
本研究考察了感知组织支持(POS)对撒哈拉以南非洲地区外派人员跨文化适应、任务完成和工作满意度的影响。虽然跨国公司依靠外派人员来管理其外国子公司,但成功的外派受到外派人员对东道国环境的跨文化调整的影响。使用偏最小二乘路径模型分析了229名外籍人士的调查回复。结果显示,来自组织的支持与外派调整、任务完成和工作满意度呈正相关。实证结果还表明,外派调整在工作满意度、任务完成度和工作满意度之间具有部分中介作用。此外,研究结果表明,任务完成对工作满意度有正向影响,并在POS与工作满意度之间起到部分中介作用。本研究的结果对在撒哈拉以南非洲经营的跨国公司具有重要的理论和实践意义。

Inclusive scholarship: why you should submit your work to International Journal of Cross Cultural Management 包容性奖学金:为什么你应该把你的作品提交给《国际跨文化管理杂志》

You should submit your article to IJCCM if your work contributes significantly to cross-cultural management scholarship. We believe we are the only scholarly journal that has this as our main criterion for acceptance front and foremost. International business, international management and general management scholarly journals have a different intention: to contribute to knowledge in those general areas. Although we believe in the integration of knowledge and scholarship, our journal is a specialist one advancing scholarship in cross-cultural management. Period. At the same time, we do not believe our area, cross-cultural management studies, is mainstream enough. We do not believe it yet stands with other streams of specialisation. It gets lost in current mainstream journals amongst more dominant specialties. Our approach over the last 20 years has gained us a reputation as a niche journal. Yet this is part of cross-cultural management studies not being seen as fully integrated into the mainstream. This, in part, is a problem of under-development. There is a need to further develop our scholarship, and to do this within a journal that specialises in doing just that. And, in doing this in an inclusive way, and in a developmental way (without prescribing a preset view of what scholarship should be).
如果你的工作对跨文化管理学术有重大贡献,你应该把你的文章提交给IJCCM。我们相信,我们是唯一一个将此作为我们的主要接受标准的学术期刊。国际商务、国际管理和综合管理学术期刊有不同的意图:为这些一般领域的知识做出贡献。虽然我们相信知识和学术的融合,但我们的期刊是一个推进跨文化管理学术的专业期刊。时期。同时,我们不认为我们的领域,跨文化管理研究,是足够的主流。我们认为它还不能与其他专门化流派相提并论。它在当前的主流期刊中迷失在更占优势的专业中。在过去的20年里,我们的方法为我们赢得了一个小众期刊的声誉。然而,这是跨文化管理研究的一部分,并没有被视为完全融入主流。这在一定程度上是欠发达的问题。有必要进一步发展我们的学术研究,并在一本专门从事这方面研究的期刊上开展这项工作。并且,以一种包容的方式,以一种发展的方式(而不是预先规定什么是奖学金)来做这件事。

Cross-cultural management scholars traditionally use country boundaries to study societal culture, while recognizing that regions within many countries show cultural differences. We review survey studies published in business journals between 1991 and 2021 that assess within-country cultural differences among administrative regions. We classify the articles according to their theoretical bases, methodological approaches, and outcomes. We use a functional, institutional, and critical event framework to suggest direction for theory that is and can be used to seek and explain within-country cultural regions. We also evaluate currently used databases, measurement, and analysis approaches to suggest ways forward.
跨文化管理学者传统上利用国家边界来研究社会文化,同时认识到许多国家内部的地区表现出文化差异。我们回顾了1991年至2021年间发表在商业期刊上的调查研究,这些研究评估了行政区域之间的国内文化差异。我们根据文章的理论基础、方法和结果对其进行分类。我们使用一个功能性、制度性和批判性事件框架来为理论提出方向,该理论现在和可以用来在国家文化区域内寻求和解释。我们还评估了目前使用的数据库、测量和分析方法,以提出前进的方向。

Despite the vital role that trailing partners play for successful expatriation, we still know very little about what actually causes partners to thrive and integrate effectively into the new cultural context. However, as indications have emerged that the personality of partners could be key to a favorable acculturation trajectory, we set out to explore this further. More specifically, we assess the role of expatriate partners’ dispositional affectivity, that is, positive and negative affectivity. We examine this in relation to internal acculturation (in the form of interaction and general adjustment) and external acculturation (in the form of local community embeddedness and intentions to stay or to return home). Drawing on the data of 123 trailing partners, full support was found for three out of four hypotheses regarding the effects of positive affectivity. Further, a marginally significant negative association was identified for the relationship between positive affectivity and repatriation intentions. For negative affectivity, two hypotheses were met. Interestingly, no significant influence of negative affectivity on community embeddedness was found. The association between negative affectivity and interaction adjustment was marginally significant indicating some tentative support. In sum, this study corroborates that dispositional affectivity is an overall important concept to explain trailing partners’ acculturation. However, the role of positive and negative affectivity seems to vary along the different proxies of internal and external acculturation.
尽管随行合伙人在成功的外派中发挥着至关重要的作用,但我们仍然知之甚少,究竟是什么让合伙人茁壮成长,并有效地融入新的文化背景。然而,有迹象表明,伴侣的性格可能是一个有利的文化适应轨迹的关键,我们开始进一步探索这一点。更具体地说,我们评估了外派合伙人的性格情感,即积极和消极情感的作用。我们将其与内部文化适应(以互动和一般调整的形式)和外部文化适应(以当地社区嵌入和留下或返回家园的意图的形式)联系起来进行研究。根据123个跟踪伴侣的数据,我们发现关于积极情感影响的四个假设中有三个是完全支持的。此外,确定了积极情感与遣返意图之间的关系的显著负相关。对于消极情感,满足两个假设。有趣的是,负面情感对社区嵌入性没有显著影响。负性情感与相互作用调节之间的关联是边际显著的,表明有一些初步的支持。综上所述,本研究证实了性格情感是解释尾随伴侣文化适应的一个整体重要概念。然而,积极和消极情感的作用似乎随着内部和外部文化适应的不同而变化。

Using a cultural and social identity lens to understand pandemic responses in the US and India 用文化和社会认同的视角来理解美国和印度的大流行应对措施

The world over, countries have been racing to control the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic. Central to the mitigation of the virus spread is the ability of nations to ensure behavior of its people adheres to the constraints imposed in the wake of the pandemic. However, there has been much variation in how individuals and collectives have responded in conformance to expected behavioral changes necessitated by the pandemic. The paper offers a cross-cultural and social identity perspective based on group categorizations to understand the variation in pandemic responses in the context of two different countries, that of India and the United States. Relevant cultural dimensions of difference shaping behavior such as individualism-collectivism, power distance, and other cultural norms shaping divergent behavioral responses in the US and India are examined. Differing group categorizations relevant for each country are also explored to understand the dynamics of behavioral response, be it adherence to mask wearing and following norms of social distancing, or the migrant labor exodus in India from urban to rural areas amidst the first wave of the pandemic. Implications for managing behavioral responses considering cross-cultural differences and group categorization processes are also discussed.
在世界各地,各国都在竞相控制Covid-19大流行的传播。减缓病毒传播的核心是各国有能力确保其人民的行为遵守大流行后施加的限制。然而,在个人和集体如何根据大流行所要求的预期行为改变作出反应方面,存在很大差异。本文提供了基于群体分类的跨文化和社会认同视角,以理解印度和美国这两个不同国家在大流行应对方面的差异。差异塑造行为的相关文化维度,如个人主义-集体主义、权力距离和其他文化规范塑造了美国和印度的不同行为反应。还探讨了与每个国家相关的不同群体分类,以了解行为反应的动态,无论是坚持戴口罩和遵守社交距离规范,还是在第一波大流行期间印度的农民工从城市流向农村地区。考虑到跨文化差异和群体分类过程的管理行为反应的含义也进行了讨论。

Cultural communication style and international joint venture contract length 文化沟通方式与国际合资企业合同期限

Purpose: Culturally bound communication styles affect the length of verbal and written messages. Legal contracts are no exception. This paper aims to explore the relationship between cultural communication style and the level of written detail in international joint venture (IJV) contracts. Using a database of actual IJV contracts, we empirically test the relationship between the parties’ cultural communication styles, cultural distance, and the textual length of contracts. We apply Edward T. Hall’s high- and low-context communication construct and find that contracts are longer when made between parties of low- and high-context cultures and shorter when both parties come from high-context cultures relative to when both parties are low context. Additionally, we find that the higher the cultural distance in terms of individualism versus collectivism between partners, the shorter the text of the contracts. The results highlight the influence of culture on contract text length and, as such, on contract negotiation and design costs. This article contributes to the culture and strategic alliance literature by going beyond the assumption that low-context culture contracts are longer and high-context culture contracts shorter by testing it empirically.
目的:受文化约束的沟通方式会影响口头和书面信息的长度。法律合同也不例外。本文旨在探讨国际合资企业合同中文化沟通风格与书面细节水平之间的关系。我们利用一个实际合资企业合同的数据库,实证检验了双方的文化沟通方式、文化距离和合同文本长度之间的关系。我们运用爱德华·t·霍尔的高语境和低语境交际结构,发现低语境和高语境双方签订的契约比低语境双方签订的契约更长,高语境双方签订的契约比低语境双方签订的契约更短。此外,我们发现合作伙伴之间在个人主义与集体主义方面的文化距离越高,合同文本就越短。研究结果强调了文化对合同文本长度的影响,因此,对合同谈判和设计成本的影响。本文通过实证检验,突破了低语境文化契约较长、高语境文化契约较短的假设,为文化与战略联盟文献做出了贡献。

We apply Edward T.

Perspectives on leadership development in post-Soviet Eurasia 后苏联欧亚地区领导力发展的观点

Young people throughout Eurasia are looking for leadership that is different from what preceding generations experienced in the Soviet era and many people are still accustomed to, namely a less top-down authoritarian style by a solo leader reflecting the outdated ‘Great Man’ model of ‘strong’ leadership and for a more collaborative, participative style with more dispersed leadership. This implies the need for a significant cultural change. Leadership development programmes now need to refocus their philosophy, objectives and methods on ways of developing a culture of participation, trust, a sense of belonging, teamwork and accountability and the required know-how and skills in today’s and future leaders. We present two research projects and a case study that reveal these needs and how a new approach to ethical and effective leadership development that appropriately integrates Western and Eastern values can help to liberate and develop the culture and economies of the Eurasia region and thereby make Eurasia a new global powerhouse.

整个欧亚大陆的年轻人都在寻找一种不同于前几代人在苏联时代所经历的、许多人仍然习惯的领导方式,即一种由一个人领导的、不那么自上而下的专制风格,反映了过时的“伟人”模式的“强大”领导,以及一种更具协作性、参与性的、更分散的领导方式。这意味着需要进行重大的文化变革。领导能力发展方案现在需要将其理念、目标和方法的重点重新放在培养参与、信任、归属感、团队合作和负责任的文化以及培养当今和未来领导人所需的专门知识和技能的途径上。我们提出了两个研究项目和一个案例研究,揭示了这些需求,以及一种适当整合东西方价值观的道德和有效领导力发展的新方法如何有助于解放和发展欧亚地区的文化和经济,从而使欧亚地区成为一个新的全球强国。
