Summary: | Globalization is an extremely important phenomenon for understanding the current economic and cultural relations around the world, as well as the new forms of administration available and demanded of executives. Its very international nature, however, implies a diversity of interpretations, influenced by the “mental programming” of national cultures. Individuals subject to the values of their social groups carry with them ways of acting and thinking that are reflected in their strategic actions, a core question in the study of organizational behavior. The present study is based on a questionnaire given to university students at two leading business schools, one in Brazil and the other in Germany. Analysis of the results shows that despite the similar pattern of many responses, there are factors that set the two groups of students apart. The Brazilians tend to perceive a more direct influence of globalization on their daily lives, while a larger number Germans believe in the intrinsic equity of the globalizing process. They also feel that their country has conditions to face a globalized economy, a feeling not shared by the Brazilian students. |

A sua natureza internacional, porém, implica em uma diversidade de interpretações, influenciadas pela “programação mental” das culturas nacionais. Indivíduos sujeitos aos valores de seus grupos sociais carregam consigo formas de agir e pensar que se refletem nas suas ações estratégicas, questão nuclear no estudo do comportamento organizacional. A pesquisa consistiu em um questionário aplicado a alunos de cursos universitários de duas instituições de destacada posição no ensino de negócios, uma no Brasil e outra na Alemanha. A análise dos resultados demonstra que apesar da semelhança no padrão de muitas respostas, há fatores que diferenciam ambos os grupos de estudantes. Os brasileiros tendem a perceber uma influência mais direta da globalização sobre seu cotidiano, enquanto um maior número de alemães acreditam na eqüidade intrínseca do processo globalizador. Também, estes julgam que seu país está em condições de enfrentar uma economia globalizada, ao contrário dos respondentes brasileiros.FUCAPE Business Shool2005-07-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo revisado pelos paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://www.bbronline.com.br/index.php/bbr/article/view/46810.15728/bbr.2005.2.2.4Brazilian Business Review; Vol. 2 No. 2 (2005): July to December 2005; 138-154Brazilian Business Review; v. 2 n. 2 (2005): Julho a Dezembro de 2005; 138-1541808-23861807-734Xreponame:BBR.

Globalization is an extremely important phenomenon for understanding the current economic and cultural relations around the world, as well as the new forms of administration available and demanded of executives. Its very international nature, however, implies a diversity of interpretations, influenced by the “mental programming” of national cultures. Individuals subject to the values of their social groups carry with them ways of acting and thinking that are reflected in their strategic actions, a core question in the study of organizational behavior. The present study is based on a questionnaire given to university students at two leading business schools, one in Brazil and the other in Germany. Analysis of the results shows that despite the similar pattern of many responses, there are factors that set the two groups of students apart. The Brazilians tend to perceive a more direct influence of globalization on their daily lives, while a larger number Germans believe in the intrinsic equity of the globalizing process. They also feel that their country has conditions to face a globalized economy, a feeling not shared by the Brazilian students. |
