Cross - individual versus collective cultural leadership and remote management

for people without extensive exposure to cultures apart from their own, it comes as a surprise to the degree to which foreign cultures show to an individual or collective social and cultural ethics. and individualistic culture tend to value personal achievement , and individual responsibility, and the accumulation of private wealth. America, a shining example of the culture of an individual, and is often called the land of "individuality and rugged." Individual and prevalent in Western cultures.

By contrast, collective cultures tend to achieve a value of collective responsibility, and social harmony. China, a shining example of the collective culture, going so far as to suppress the expression of personal criticism of the government for the collective stability and social control.

Because both individual and collective culture contains elements that are very useful not important to determine cultural orientation is the "best." Instead, it is helpful to understand that anyone with a cultural orientation singles will find personal fulfillment and to identify the most stimulating of people from mass culture. Similarly, the person with the cultural orientation of collective excellence find more stimulating group of people from individualistic culture and social harmony.

and the awareness of the different cultural orientations allows the international director for the design of recognition and reward, which respects the cultural background of their teams while cross-border coordination of incentives to support the goals of the organization as a whole systems.

Regardless of individual or collective context, the water cooler is an excellent place to catch up with co-workers. Grab lunch every week allows a kind of intimacy and face-to-face, which lost through e-mail conference calls exchanged. Meeting with people "personality" your experience with them and make it a full three-dimensional object.

with workers in remote areas, there is a constant risk that you may lose this respect and convergence. Since the tone and the tone is absent in e-mail, business correspondence often reads as a formal and impersonal. In fact, one of the central risks in dealing with distributed teams is the issue by removing the diagnostic team members in remote locations. When people are stripped of personality traits, they tend to be seen more as if they were gears in a machine that co-workers struggled to cope with the regulatory challenges the same as you. It can be seen as obstacles rather than our valued partners in the business.

To address this issue, corporate meetings, field visits and videoconferencing, video presentations, and "books and his face" (phonebook with personal information Photos and employee) works wonders to return to personal and team orientation for workers is so distant and far away. Will save the workers in remote areas to participate in the decision-making process to help them to feel more closely aligned to the objectives of the organization as a whole.
