Cultural Indoctrination: A Theoretical Framework
Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to examine the potential influence of Cultural Indoctrination (CI) on organizations today in an era of global hypercompetition. It is axiomatic that one of the fundamental realities of contemporary globalism is most organizations today must be able to function successfully across cultural (and national) boundaries to sustain a competitive advantage and remain profitable over time. Achieving this goal requires management to appreciate and understand the key factors affecting global business today. However, none of these factors considers in-depth the vastly underresearched area CI we all experience from birth. This chapter examines the following factors involved in cultural indoctrination: Child Development, Cultural Intelligence, Education, Institutionalization, Nationalism and Patriotism, Religion, Self-Efficacy, Social Capital, and Values Orientation Theory (VOT). It is from these factors that a conceptual model is developed for potential future application in management theory and practice.
