Values Survey Module

Demel (1991) and Demel and Meshkati (1989) conducted an extensive field study to explore how the performance of U.S.-owned manufacturing plants in other countries is affected by both the national culture of the host country and the organizational culture of the subsidiary plant. A manufacturing plant division of a large American multinational corporation was examined in three countries Puerto Rico, the United States, and Mexico. Hofstede s (1980a) Values Survey Module for national culture and Reynolds s (1986) Survey of Organizational Culture were administered. Performance measures (i.e., production, safety, and quahty) were collected through the use of secondary research.
