2INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
Introduction
The analysis in the report will be mainly based on the cultural issues that can be faced
by organizations and managers when they plan to expand their operations in a different
country. The management of human resources based on the cultural competencies of other
will be analysed with the implementation of two models Hofstede’s cultural dimensions and
Hall’s Communication contexts. The cultural contexts in the case of P&G will be analysed
based on the cultural value that I have developed in my country (Bird & Mendenhall, 2016).
Culture and analysis of cultural group
Hofstede’s cultural analysis of United States –
Power distance – The power distance score that US has gained is 40 which is able to
depict that the organizations in the society have low power distance and level of inequalities
in power is also low. The hierarchy levels in firms are based on convenience.
Individualism – The individualism score of US society is 91 and the American
society believes in “liberty and justice for all”. The managers of the organizations in US are
dependent on employees for various decisions that are related to the operations (Hofstede-
insights.com. 2019).
Masculinity – US society has received a masculinity score of 62 that is also
considered to be quite high. The behavioural patterns of the Americans are able to depict high
levels of masculinity and drive towards individual needs are also quite high.
Uncertainty avoidance – The score US society in the dimension of uncertainty
avoidance is 46 that can be considered to be below average. The Americans are able to accept
new ideas quite fast in comparison to the individuals belonging to other countries, that is
further able to reduce the levels of uncertainty avoidance (Hofstede-insights.com. 2019).
