28 w w w. h a m k. f i The 5 Cultural Dimensions of Hofstede…
29 w w w. h a m k. f i Suomi/Finland vs. Kiina/China
30 w w w. h a m k. f i Power Distance High power distance score 1 (China 80, Asian average 60, Finland 30) –A measure of how much influence or interpersonal power someone has (as perceived by the subordinate) –Can bee seen in tall organizational structures –Chinese corganizations often have a very top-down management style Subordinates are expected to listen to and follow mangers orders ©Paljakka Hofstede (1991; 2005)
31 w w w. h a m k. f i Individualism (IDV)/Group Orientation Very low individualism score 1 –Chinese are family and group oriented to a great extent –Ones status is not derived from personal achievement but from the position within a group –Family members are expected to take care of each other –Face culture can be derived from low individualism Relations and success require effort and social structures, and the loss of face can occur when acting against these norms ©Paljakka Hofstede (1991; 2005)
32 w w w. h a m k. f i Masculinity Masculine 1 –Highly masculine cultures expect men to be assertive and focused on material success, while women are expected to be modest and concerned with the quality of life. –Feminine countries have overlapping gender roles, masculine societies aim for high performance China, Japan and United States are examples of masculine countries; Finland, Norway, Costa Rica and Sweden among others are feminine. ©Paljakka Hofstede (1991; 2005)
33 w w w. h a m k. f i Uncertainty Avoidance Relatively low uncertainty avoidance score 1 –Measures how well organizations and their members deal with unexpected situations –People of low scoring countries are expected to deal with uncertainty as a part of daily life Based on the history of the country, in China laws were a series of broad strokes, not exact codes –Also means emotional outbursts, aggression and conflict are not desirable ©Paljakka Hofstede (1991; 2005)
34 w w w. h a m k. f i Long-term Orientation Highest rank on Long-term orientation 1 –The Chinese culture is by definition persevering, thrifty and adaptive –Work is not expected to be completed immediately This makes sense when you consider uncertainty a part of daily life, and that you need to build personal relations; that kind of work cannot be finished quickly Hofstede added Long-term orientation to his studies as he was critiqued on excluding China –It is no wonder China ranks #1 when the scale was built with China in mind ©Paljakka Hofstede (1991; 2005)
35 w w w. h a m k. f i Long-Term Orientation (LTO) Geert Hofstede analysis for China has Long- term Orientation (LTO) the highest-ranking factor (118), which is true for all Asian cultures. This Dimension indicates a society's time perspective and an attitude of persevering; that is, overcoming obstacles with time, if not with will and strength.
