I
39、 was told that most of you are either engaged or interested in business, and your participation in this series of lectures indicates that all of you may have realized the importance of culture to success in international business. As our lecture today is the first one, we are going to briefly look a
40、t some basic types of culture.The Dutch researcher and business consultant, Geert Hofstede, has developed a useful framework that il- lustrates the four major issues that define and classify national cultures. Facts show that each issue has a very real effect on how people process information and in
41、teract, either personally or with business colleagues. During the remaining part of the lecture, lets explore these issues one by one.First and foremost, we need to look at the conflict between individualism and collectivism. Does a society cherish individualism, the independent thinker, the person
42、who values personal success over group success, or does it function in an orderly fashion only when individuals sacrifice their needs to those of the group? The values that a society holds will determine how an individual defines himself or herself-as free individual or as a member of a group. Deter
43、mine the answer to this most basic of questions about a societys cultural values, and you will obtain a valuable clue as to how to proceed in successfully concluding a business negotiation and managing a business relationship in the future.Understanding the contrast between the group and the individ
44、ual is very important for business. In an individualist culture, decision making may be more rapid, but the implementation of a change in policy may be much slower than in a collectivist culture. On the other hand, it may take longer to come to a consensus in a collectivist environment, but once the
45、 decision is made, implementation is generally quicker.The second issue in the study of cultural types is power distance. Power distance actually refers to how individuals in a society view power as well as their own role in decision making. In cultures with a low power-distance, individual employee
46、s will seek a role in decision-making and question decisions and orders that they have made no contribution. By contrast, in high power distance societies, employees seek no decision-making role. They accept the bosss decision simply because the boss is the boss and is supposed to give orders. Emplo
47、yees in this kind of cultures need direction and discipline, and they look to management to provide it. In low power distance cultures, workers will accept more responsibility. Low power distance cultures tend to be more individualistic in nature.OK, so much for the second issue, power distance. Next lets move on to the third point, uncertainty-a- voidance. It is a measure of a societys ability to tolerate ambiguity and uncertainty.
