dc.description.abstract | The research analyzed values orientation and organization effectiveness in United States and Japan compared with Nigeria. This was with the aim of understanding the Hofstede1 (1980, 2001) model of values for organizational leadership across the globe. United States and Japan are two giant economic powers which have developed their own management and leadership practice that is suitable for their culture were selected to compare with Nigeria.A meta- analytical literature search revealed that the differences between behavior and characteristics of leaders in one country are relatively the same compared to the other. There has been much criticism for the generalization of a nation's culture and its inability to represent the cultural differences within each country. Conclusions were that United States, Japan and Nigeria have the same ideology of capitalism, but the cultural value of each country has a very significant impact on their leadership style. Though the cultural dimension is treated one by one in contrasting Japan, United States and Nigeria, it is also true that those five dimensions can simultaneously affect the value and belief that is important for both leaders and followers. Suggestions were made for the use of the findings of this study by leaders and managers in organization when they are faced with situation to lead people from different cultural background. It is also not limited only in organizational level but also for personal understanding to learn and develop their leadership quality. | en_US |
