Q DISCUSSION BOARD FORUM 5 INSTRUCTIONS Hofstede Analysis Using the Hofstede national management dimensions of culture, you will conduct and discuss a comparative analysis of 3 foreign nations and the USA. The Discussion Board Forum assignment consists of 3 parts. Part 1 - Reservation Your instructor will provide a list of nations for this Discussion Board Forum. After reviewing the provided list of nations, select the 3 foreign nations you wish to compare national management dimensions with the USA and post a thread reserving the nations you select. Be sure to check the Discussion Board area prior to posting your reservation to ensure no one else has reserved those 3 nations. In the event any of the nations you wish to explore is already reserved by someone else, simply move on to another nation on the list. Duplicate postings will not earn credit under any circumstance (this includes posting work submitted in a previous course).

Kuwait has a higher score in PDI in comparison with Argentina and South Africa meaning that a hierarchical order is already accepted by almost all citizens of Kuwait. Therefore, the level of inequality is high in Kuwait and the citizens are satisfied with it without questioning the level of inequality. In case of Individualism, Argentina’s citizens mostly take care of themselves alone, have some obligations towards their families, and calculative relations with employers. South Africa’s citizens are promoted in organizations mostly because of talent and there are contract-based relations with employers. The in-group dynamics is considered mostly for promoting employees in Kuwait as the citizens prefer to show loyalty towards their in-group members privately and professionally. There are more feminine characteristics shown by the citizens of Kuwait in managing conflicts with emotion and negotiation. There is more focus on surviving professionally and well-being of all individuals. South African citizens have scope of making mistakes by not adhering to legal rules and getting away with such non-compliance because of high level of tolerance and flexibility. LTO does not apply for the culture of Kuwait.
