Cultural consequences of IHRM on company’s values, behavior, institutions, or...Masum Hussain
The objective of the study is to investigate and analyze the influence of culture on human resource management practices. The research is expected to answer the importance question: Are HRM practices influenced by national culture or not? It is generally accepted that the practices of management is considered to be universal until Hofstede (1980:42) published the seminal work: Culture’s Consequences: International Differences in Work Related Value in 1980. Hofstede’s work is the most popular in cross culture management studies so that his framework in national culture will be used in this research. Structural equation model (SEM) with Two Step Model Building Approach is used to test structural theory. It is used to test the hypotheses model statistically to determine the extent to which the proposed model is consistent with the sample data. SEM incorporates both confirmatory factor analysis and multiple regressions to estimate a series of interdependent relationship simultaneously. The results of descriptive analysis indicate that the national culture dimensions tend high for collectivism, power distance, masculinity and uncertainty avoidance, quite different from Hofstede (1980) findings that Indonesia has high collectivism, high power distance, and moderate in masculinity and low in uncertainty avoidance. While in Second Order Confirmatory Factor Analysis, collectivism, power distance and uncertainty avoidance are confirmed as a dimension of national culture but masculinity are not.
In structural testing, it indicates that two hypotheses i.e. the influence of national culture on career development and compensation are supported but the influence of national culture on staffing and participative management are not supported. Organizational culture also shows influence on staffing and participative management. One of human resource management practices i.e. career development influence on organizational performance but others such as staffing, participative management, and compensation does not. This study shows that national culture and organizational culture influence on some of human resource management practices. Therefore, this research supports the divergence theory that human resource management practices are culture-bound.
Cross cultural management involves managing work teams in ways that considers the differences in cultures, practices and preferences of consumers in a global or international business context. Many businesses have to learn to modify or adapt their approaches in order to compete on a level in fields no longer bound by physical geography with online interactions more common in business and other situations.

Essay on diversity in the workplace - aiu(final)Donasian Mbonea
The world’s increasing globalization requires more interac¬tion among people from diverse backgrounds. People no longer live and work in an insular environment; they are now part of a worldwide economy competing within a global framework. For this reason, profit and non-profit organizations need to become more diversified to remain competitive. Maximizing and capitalizing on workplace diversity is an important issue for management (Betchoo, 2015)
Supervisors and managers need to recognize the ways in which the workplace is changing and evolving. Managing diversity is a significant organizational challenge, so mana¬gerial skills must adapt to accommodate a multicultural work environment. (Agarwala, 2010)
It is a known fact that diversity is gaining more importance nowadays than ever before given that the world better accommodates people with differences since it has transformed into a global village, a term that looked distant in the past but looks more apparent today than ever before. This calls for acceptance of differences which are, in essence, the elements of diversity. Traditionally, diversity could mainly focus on gender, age and ethnicity issues but there are new concepts like HIV/AIDS workers, dual – career couples, mobile workers that have become part of the workplace and have their role to play in the society (Betchoo, 2015).
Then comes the foreign employee. There are two trends that are identifiable. Firstly, people from the developing world moved in large numbers to rich countries that were their former colonists. Secondly, top executives are moving to developing nations to sell their managerial expertise. Foreign employees might also invoke the issue of cultural diversity and tolerance. Acceptance of diversity also covers the issue of race relations which are easy tough to manage despite struggles won in many parts of the world.
Workplace diversity exists when companies hire employees from various backgrounds and experiences. Many companies see workplace diversity as an investment toward building a better business. Although workplace diversity provides many benefits, it also poses many challenges to employees and managers. To reap the benefits of workplace diversity, employees and managers must understand the challenges and know how to effectively deal with them.
The essay explore the meaning of diversity as a concept, managing diversity, a model for diversity, HRM in workplace diversity, tools for managing diversity, benefits of diversity in the workplace, challenges of diversity in the workplace, strategies for managing diverse workforce, Literature review on managing workplace diversity as well as reviewing one case study on the topic.

Besides, genuine global leadership perceives the effect of their activities on surrounding groups and the entire society. They comprehend that individual success is subordinate upon the thriving of others and that they assume a part in changing their organizations, as well as the social orders in which they work.

Global leadership can be considered as emerging. The emerging nature of global leadership has attracted numerous inputs from diverse and multidisciplinary dimensions. The growth in interest in global leadership can serve as a curse or as a blessing to its promising but young and relatively naïve and open field. Per a review of the literature on global leadership, various distinctions point to the understanding that cultural dynamic involving multiculturalism, cross-cultural, intercultural, and cultural differences are critical to the understanding and advancement of global leadership towards global leadership competencies, effectiveness and so forth.

New Meanings in Global Leadership Competence: Discovering Approaches of Conceptualizing and Operationalizing Multicultural Leadership in Global Occupational Settings
Cultural dynamic-cultural diversity, intercultural, cross-cultural, and multicultural-is increasing in its criticality towards global leadership competencies and effectiveness (Mendenhall, Osland, Bird, Oddou, & Maznevski, 2008). Leaders within organizations oriented towards multiculturalism are expected to be multiculturally competent (Canen, & Canen, 2008). These leaders are, for example, required to be multiculturally accountable towards the institutionalizing of cultural flexibility and diversity (Canen, & Canen, 2008). Moreover, multiculturally competent leadership has been identified as a potential source of conflict management in organizations (Canen, & Canen, 2008). Globally oriented companies are also cautioned to consider as critical and integral to their efforts multicultural leadership (Muna, 2011) if they intend to sustain their global competitive advantage since “multicultural leaders are cosmopolitan and worldly, they have acquired the cultural sensitivity necessary to bridge cultures (even when working within the same country) and can conduct business effectively across national borders” (Muna, 2011, p. 90). In addition to the criticality of effective global leadership to the success of global organizations (Butler, Zander, Mockaitis, & Sutton, 2012; Tung & Varma, 2008, as cited in Lisak & Erez, 2015: Mendenhall et al., 2008) leaders who develop the potential to emerge within a multicultural occupational settings or teams are seen to be more oriented towards global identity, cultural diversity, and cultural intelligence (Lisak & Erez, 2015). Regarding stakeholder issues in organizations, there has arisen the need to manage ethnocentrism and ethnorelativism challenges via ethnopluralism (Snaiderbaur, 2012).

The world as we know it is constantly in a state of change and still changing fast. Majority of the changes experienced are not technically bad, however, they have come with diverse rooms for adjustment, and are not suggestive, but necessary if we are to survive the waves of new ones happening around us by the second?. Before now, our distinctive features are what separate us, and pushing us apart, as people, organizations, and as countries (Setyaningrum, 2017). However, these distinctive and unique features have become a strength, bridging the gaps between usus, and causing us to rely and depend on one another (Tran, 2012). Now, as much as the strengths are not new, their discoveries or the potential buried in them are becoming more obvious and showcased for the world to see. This is true in every aspect of life, but more especially in the business and leadership world. One thing difficult to deny is, result. Quality leadership is obvious, and people will gravitate towards them, as we are in a global world where there is visibility, we are able to see leadership with results around us.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
Artificial intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities to radically reinvent the way we do business. This study explores how CEOs and top decision makers around the world are responding to the transformative potential of AI.
Specific ServPoints should be tailored for restaurants in all food service segments. Your ServPoints should be the centerpiece of brand delivery training (guest service) and align with your brand position and marketing initiatives, especially in high-labor-cost conditions.

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the study:
The present report mainly deals with the aspects of cultural diversity as well as the
management issues which are formed while considering the cultural diversity. The
general business scenario observed in the hospitality and tourism industry is also well
explained along with the related areas of motivation and leadership as well. The entire
globe is getting reshaped or restructured by the advancements in the field of
technology and science as well. These scientific as well as technological developments
have also resulted in the reshaping of the processes of business also. The productivity
as well as the bottomline of the process of business have also been elevated to a great
extent. The attributes like fast pace, potentials, accuracy etc have been enhanced with
the introduction of technological advancements, which became reasons for the
enhancement in the productivity of the business (Stephanie, 2012).
The industry of service which mainly concentrates on the lodging, planning of events,
transportation etc within the industry of tourism, is importantly reflected on the
hospitality industry. The food and accommodation as well are arranged by the
hospitality industry. The tourism as well as the hospitality industry are well related and
inter connected to each other. The growth of one industry would lead to the growth of
the other industry also. The wider segment of the tourism could be regarded as the
business tourism industry, which mainly involves tow prominent segments, which are
business tourism meetings and business tourism events as well. The meeting,
exhibitions, conferences etc are included in the business tourism meetings while the
other segment, business tourism events involve non-event meetings like concerts,
sports events etc (Cox, 2009).
With the advancements in the technology as well as globalization, the rate of growth
of cultural diversity has also occurred to the maximum. The concept of diversity could
be defined as the aspect of having a blend of mixed qualities, in case of humans, the
individuals hailing from different parts of the world who are having different cultures,
coming into contact with each other. The attributes which include age, gender, origin,
class, etc vary from one another in the diversity (Mary and Virginia, 2010).
The concept of diversity in all the aspects are dealt through the development of an
ideology called the diversity management. The ability as well as the talents of the
employees of a firm hailing from different cultures is enhanced through the concept of
the diversity management. These employees are well motivated by making them

understand the salient features of their own cultural significances. This would
ultimately result in the enhanced productivity of the firm by enhancing the skills of the
employees of the concerned firms. The heterogeneity in the culture, would be the
main focus area which is concentrated by the cultural diversity management (Bernd,
2009).
The phenomenon of convincing and directing an individual towards the aim and goal of
any firm, is reflected by the term, ‘Motivation’. This is a concept which is considered to
be cent percent goal oriented. This is a very important as well as a complicated
concept. The profits and gains of a firm mainly depends upon this concept, which is
required to enhance the performance level of the employees of the concerned firm, by
stimulating them to attain the goals of the firm (Gary, 2010). The motivation could be
categorized into two types, which are internal motivation and external motivation as
well. The concept of leadership also plays an important role in the motivation of the
employees of the firm towards the goals. The importance of the relationships is
maintained in the leadership and the plans are done according to this. The
management takes risks for the sake of its employees and cares these employees much
so that they are always kept in a comfort zone. Highly innovative ideas are created in
the concept of leadership (Andrew, 2012).

2. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
2.1 Introduction:
The examination and analysis of the previous works related to the current topic, done
by many researchers, are included in this section. The literature works which are
related to the aspects of management of cultural diversity, motivation and the
associated theories, as well as the role of leadership in motivation etc are well detailed
in the present section.
2.2 Management of cultural diversity:
According to Stefanie (2006), the cultural diversity could be considered as the mixing
or blend of different individuals who hail from different cultural backgrounds. Since,
the concept of cultural diversity is very much complicated, the management of cultural
diversity is also a complex process which needs well attention and focus as well, as per
the conclusions of Jean (2009). As per the statements given by Matthew (2009), there
are chances for the development of strong conflicts as there is a big observable gap
between the cultural backgrounds of the individuals involved. In order to avoid or
prevent these conflicts, a concept of clarity must be compulsorily established.
According to Bernd, respecting one another’s cultural features is the best way to avoid
the issues and conflicts as well. According to Mary and Virginia (2010), the
management practices which one culture would accept would not be easily accepted
as well as appreciated by the other culture. The concept of cultural diversity has
become well complicated which seriously could affect the productivity, when the
business process of a firm is considered, says Cox (2009). Thus, it is very much required
to deal and manage these cultural differences for the maintenance and stabilization of
the productivity of these firms. According to Stephen (2010), the persons dealing with
the management of the cultural diversity should be well known of the merits and
demerits of the concept. They should be capable of motivating the employees in spite
of the cultural differences, suggests Stephen and David (2010). Leadership should be
the basic quality which they supposed to possess in order to increase the productivity
of the firm, which leads to the profits and benefits of the employees as well as the
firms.
2.2 Leadership across cultures:
As stated by Andrew (2012), for the purpose of attainment of the objectives of a firm, a
person should take the responsibility and lead others to attain the goals, and this

quality is referred to as the leadership. The workplace could be easily affected if it
involves a number of diverse backgrounds. The main quality of the leader is his ability
to direct as well as motivate the employees, irrespective of their cultural background,
to attain the goals of the firm, says Andrew (2009). Diversity has been observed in the
styles of leadership across the globe and several studies have been done on the
relationship between the cultures and leadership, according to Richard et al (2010).
According to the studies performed by Watt and James (2010), the concept of
leadership could be basically classified into two main types, which are Task Oriented
Leadership and People Oriented Leadership as well. The findings suggest that both of
these two types of leadership cultures have got salient features in their own way. Still,
when compared to each other, People Oriented Leadership could be regarded to be
much better than the Task Oriented Leadership, since the former style concentrates on
the provision of direction as well as instructions to the employees, while the latter
focuses on the understanding of the attitudes of the employees, state Watt and James
(2010).
As per the opinions of Neville (2010), there are some theories which clearly explain the
concept of leadership. Among all these, theory XYZ constitutes the most prominent
one. According to theory X, the concept of manager is that all the employees are lazy
and they require punishments to perform well. A manager, who thinks that the
employees do hard works with a feel of responsibility and commitment under the
suitable conditions, is explained by the theory Y. Theory Z explains that the manager
believes in the well performance of the employees through motivation (Bessie et al,
2010). As per the statement given by Brenda (2012), whatever may be the adopted
leadership style, the basic required quality of an ideal leader should be the ability to
motivate the employees to attain the goals of the organization.
2.3 Motivation across cultures:
According to the opinions of Brian (2012), the psychological direction provided to the
employees for the attainment of the goals. As per the conclusions made by Stepahine
(2010), the basic processes of motivation arises from the unsatisfied needs, which
direct towards the goals to satisfy these needs, which results in the final attainment of
the goals. The concept of motivation could vary from place to place, and thus it could
be regarded as culture variant, says Mark (2011). Based on the nature of the
motivation processes, two broad types of theories have been designed, which are
Content theories of Motivation and Process Theories of Motivation as well, finds and

concludes Lois (2009). The reasons for the motviaiton are explained in the Content
Theories of Motivation, while the Process Theories of Motivation very well explains the
ways or methods by which the motivation processes are implemented, supports Gary
(2010) also. As per the findings of Marina (2011) and Stephanie (2012), various need
theories have been created to explain the process of motivation, which includes
Maslow’s need theory, Herzberg’s Two factor theory of motivation, Achievement
Motivation theory, Expectany theory etc.

3. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
3.1 Introduction
The process of ‘Research Methodology’ involves the assessment as well as the analysis
of the problems of the research, according to the findings of Jan and Collin (2010). As
per the conclusions of Anderson (2009), various techniques, approaches, models,
methods, strategies etc are included in the research methodology so as to achieve the
aims and objectives of the research.
3.2 Research Method
According to the statements of Anderson (2009), there is a definite set of steps and
procedures which could be employed to make the research work end in success. There
are two main types of research method, which are explained below:
a) Quantitative Research Methods:
This is the data which is mainly expressed in arithmetical format and this needs to be
transformed into the readable text format. The quantitative data are generally
collected from the persons who are directly or indirectly related to the study, says
Wayne et al (2011).
b) Qualitative Research Method:
According to Wayne et al (2011), the feelings and views of the common people are
generally expressed in this type of research method.
The quantitative type of research method is applied in the present research by the
researcher. The data are collected from the staffs of All Bar One. The questionnaire is
used to collect the required information for the completion of the research work.
3.3 Methods of Data Collection
The selection of the proper way to collect the data is very crucial and it mainly depends
on the nature of the research work. There are two main type of data which are primary
data as well as secondary data.
a) Primary data collection:
According to the perceptions of Boone and Kurtz (2011), the data which is being
collected for the first time and which is fresh, is referred to as primary data. This type
of data is collected directly from the people.

b) Secondary data collection:
Boone and Kurtz (2011) states that the data which is collected from different sources
(including journals, magazines, articles etc), is termed to be the secondary data.
Primary data would be the preferred data type used for the present research. The
required information is collected from the employees of the chain of bars, All bar one.
3.4 Research Strategy:
As per the opinions of Jackson (2010), the fundamentals of the research methodology
would be the research strategy. Depending upon the type as well as features of the
research, the research strategy is selected. Out of the many types of research
strategies (including case study, survey study, interviews, etc), the researcher prefers
the survey strategy as the apt research strategy for the present research. Since a large
group of individuals form as a source of information, survey study strategy would be
the appropriate one.
3.5 Research ethics:
While carrying out a research, the researchers are supposed to follow certain rules and
ethics. The author of the present research also follows the ethics of the research
strictly. The confidentiality of the information as well as the privacy of the employees
who participated in the survey analysis is well maintained by the researcher.

4. DATA ANALYSIS
4.1 Introduction
The information collected for the successful completion of the research work, is well
analyzed in this section of the study. The validation of the data is also done in this
section of the research. The researcher uses the data which collected at the time of the
research, which is termed to be the primary data. The initial step of the data analysis
was the design of a questionnaire which contained important queries which were
related to the aspects of management ability, leadership as well as motivation. The
employees of ‘All Bar One’ were subjected to the survey analysis using this
questionnaire.
4.1 Analysis of the primary data:
The researcher managed to collect the primary data from the workers (15 workers) of
‘All Bar One’. These employees included 5 employees each from three countries (to
study cultural diversity and the countries were selected randomly) who were analyzed
using this questionnaire.
Q1) Could you please mention the age group to which you belong to?

5. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
5.1 Introduction
This section includes the achievement of the goals of the research, after analyzing the
obtained data. The main aim of the present research is to examine the concepts of
management of cultural diversity, motivation and leadership across the culture, and
how are they related to each other. The All Bar One firm is taken for the case study.
The primary data required for the study was obtained from the employees of the firm.
The employees selected for the analysis belonged to three randomly selected
countries, Italy, France and Nigeria.
The goals of the research work were attained by the assistance of the collected data.
At the end of the study, collaboration, compilation as well as the assessment of the
findings was done by the researcher.
Objective 1: To asses the management of the cultural diversity by the managers of All
Bar One.
The employees of the firm, ‘All Bar One’ were from different cultural background.
There were differences in the age group, country, gender, level of education etc. That
is, the cultural diversity was well observed in the firm. Even though the management of
the cultural diversity was little complicated, the managers of the firm tried to given
equal opportunities to all the individuals in spite of the differences in their cultural
backgrounds. The motivation level was also given in the same level, but since there is a
difference in their perceptions, difference in the perceptions of motivation was also
observed by the researcher.
Objective 2 : To evaluate the leadership ability of the managers and to examine the
motivation level provided by the managers to the employees of the firm.
The leadership ability of the managers of All Bar One was also confirmed through the
study. An ideal leader should be the one who is capable of leading the people towards
a specific goal in spite of the differences in any aspect. According to the employees of
the firm, even though these managers direct them towards the achievement of the
goals of the firm, they could not be considered as the exact leaders as they were not
having the ability to solve the issues or conflicts which arise as a result of the cultural
diversity. But, the majority of the employees were satisfied with the motivation

provided by these managers. Since there is a cultural difference among them, the level
of perception of motivation was different for all of them. Most of the employees were
not satisfied with the employment security.
5.2 Recommendations:
After the research work, the author suggests certain recommendations which would
be useful for the betterment of the prevailing situations of the firm. Some of the
recommendations suggested by him are:
a) Securing the employment: Since some of the employees were much anxious
about the future as they were not sure about the longevity of their job, it would
be much better if the firm makes some measures to secure the employment of
these employees.
b) Enhancing the leadership ability: It would be better if some training classes
were given to the managers so that they could get an idea how to behave when
a conflict due to the cultural diversity arises. These also could lighten the
situations.
c) Provision of the motivational level according to the employees: Since there is
a difference in the cultural backgrounds of the employees, the motivation
which is being provided would be accepted by some of them and would be
rejected by some other. So, it is always better to provide the motivation
according to their needs and requirements.
