| Tiivistelmä: | Drawing on person-environment fit and national identity theory, the paper proposes that person-national culture fit is likely to influence the promotability of host-country nationals in multinational firms. It is suggested that the parent companys national culture influences managerial expectations of host-country nationals in foreign subsidiaries. The study conducted contrasted ingratiation, exchange of benefits and coalition, and directness influence tactics of host-country nationals in domestic Ecuadorian forms with American and German multinationals in Ecuador. Compatible with our hypothesis, data from a sample of 79 firms suggest that exchange of benefits and coalition are more likely to be associated with promotability in German than in domestic Ecuadorian firms. |
