Tiivistelmä: | This study explores how national culture affects employees' reaction to different modes of implementing high-stretch performance standards. An experiment was performed using Chinese and U.S. nationals to represent cultures that diverge on two relevant dimensions: power distance and individualism/collectivism. Consistent with culturally based expectations, Chinese nationals more readily accepted imposed high-stretch performance standards - relative to U.S. nationals - as manifested by the degree to which they performed up to those standards. Also, differences were found between Chinese and U.S. nationals' satisfaction with high-stretch performance standards under autocratic vs. consultative participation in the standard-development process. |
