Individualism/Collectivism I’ll now test the Individualism/Collectivism hypothesis, Hypothesis: Individualism/Collectivism validation: The New Zealand sample will score significantly higher means for the Power, Achievement, Hedonism, Stimulation, and Self-Direction subdimensions than the Guangzhou sample, and significantly lower on the Benevolence, Tradition and Conformity sub-dimensions. In the Chart and Table in Figures 5.36 and 5.37, we see that for the hypothesis concerning Individualism/Collectivism tendencies, using random samples of businesspeople, the New Zealand sample rankings are relatively atypical of an Individualist society by Schwartz’ specifications, with the Guangzhou sample ranking the motivational value dimensions of Power, Self-Direction, and Achievement higher than the New Zealand sample. Comparing Schwartz’ definition of Individualism/Collectivism with my results, results from neither sample are consistent with a Collectivist society: Dimension New Zealand Sample Guangzhou City sample Power GZ mean much higher Achievement Low rank, centred means not significantly different Hedonism Very low rank, centred means not significantly different Stimulation NZ mean much higher Self-Direction Mid-range rank, not significantly different Given that Hofstede (2001) and House et al. (2004) both indicate that New Zealand has higher mean scores for Individualism than China, it appears that Schwartz’ dimensions might measure something different than those theories when it comes to Individualism/Collectivism. Confucian Values I’ll now test the hypothesis concerning Confucian Values, Hypothesis: Confucian Values: Means for dimensions of individual level values Universalism, Benevolence, Conformity, Tradition, and Security will be higher than the remaining five for the Guangzhou, China, sample. 257
In the chart and table in Figures 5.36 and 5.37 we see that for the hypothesis concerning Confucian Values tendencies, compared to a random sample of businesspeople from Guangzhou City, China, the Guangzhou sample rankings are relatively atypical of Confucian values, with the New Zealand sample ranking the motivational value dimensions: � Universalism, Benevolence, Conformity not significantly differently from the Guangzhou sample; � Tradition and Security ranked much higher than the Guangzhou sample; The directions of the rankings of the dimensions indicate that New Zealand businesspeople tend to value Security and Tradition highly, compared to the Guangzhou sample. If the SVS dimensions do accurately assess Confucian Values, and if China still adheres to them, Chinese businesspeople tend to have value priorities different from the population in general, and values tend to be more similar to New Zealand businesspeople. Tall Poppy I’ll now test the Tall Poppy hypothesis, Hypothesis: Tall Poppy: New Zealand businesspeople will score lower means for the Self-Enhancement individual value dimensions of Power, Achievement and Hedonism than will the Guangzhou businesspeople. In the chart and table in Figures 5.36 and 5.37, the New Zealand sample does have lower average rankings for the Self Enhancement dimensions, these being the lowest ranked value dimensions. Leadership Inhibitors For Hypothesis: Leadership Inhibitors: The Guangzhou and New Zealand samples will have similar means for LBDQXII items identified as being inhibitors of leadership. Results of ANOVA tests of the Leadership Inhibitors hypothesis are depicted in Figure 5.39. The two samples have significantly different mean ranks for nine of the eleven leadership inhibitor items. The rankings of the inhibitor item means are reversed for the two samples for most items, with impatience on the part of the managerial leader being more acceptable in the NZ sample, and a more easygoing attitude is acceptable to the 258
