Maslows theory rests on a number of basicassumptions:
Lower-level needs must be satisfied beforehigher-level needs become motivators
A need that is satisfied no longer serves as amotivator
There are more ways to satisfy higher-level thanthere are ways to satisfy lower-level needs

International Findings: Haire study indicated allthese needs were important to the respondentsacross cultures
International managers indicated the upper-level needs wereof particular importance to them
Findings for select country clusters (Latin Europe, UnitedStates/United Kingdom, and Nordic Europe) indicatedautonomy and self-actualization were the most important and least satisfied needs for the respondents
Another study of managers in eight East Asian countriesfound that autonomy and self-actualization in most cases alsoranked high

International findings:Two categories of International findings relate tothe two-factor theory:
One type of study consists of replications of Herzbergsresearch in a particular countryDo managers in country X give answers similar to those in Herzbergs original studies?
The others are cross-cultural studies focusing on jobsatisfactionWhat factors cause job satisfaction and how do these responses differ from country to country?

Cross-cultural satisfaction studies Motivators tend to be more important to job
satisfaction than hygiene factors
For MBA candidates from four countries rankedhygiene factors at the bottom and motivators at thetop
For lower- and middle-management personnelattending management development courses inCanada, the United Kingdom, France, and Japan jobcontent may be more important than job context

International Findings:
Achievement motivation theory must be modified to meet thespecific needs of the local culture:
The culture of many countries does not support highachievement
Anglo cultures and those that reward entrepreneurial effortdo support achievement motivation and their human
resources should probably be managed accordingly

International Findings: Employees in Asia and the Middle East often readily accept
inequitable treatment in order to preserve group harmony
Men and women in Japan and Korea (and Latin America) typicallyreceive different pay for doing the same work due to years of cultural conditioning women may not feel they are treatedinequitably

Equity Theory
When people perceive they are being treatedequitably it will have a positive effect on their
job satisfaction
If they believe they are not being treated fairly(especially in relation to relevant others) theywill be dissatisfied which will have a negativeeffect on their job performance and they willstrive to restore equity.

Unlike many theories of motivation, goal setting has beencontinually refined and developed
There is considerable research evidence showing thatemployees perform extremely well when they are assignedspecific and challenging goals that they have had a hand insetting
Most of these studies have been conducted in the UnitedStates few have been carried out in other cultures

International Findings :
Norwegian employees shunned participation and preferred tohave their union representatives work with management in
determining work goals
Researchers concluded that individual participation in goalsetting was seen as inconsistent with the prevailing Norwegianphilosophy of participation through union representatives
In the United States employee participation in setting goals ismotivational it had no value for the Norwegian employees inthis study

Expectancy theory predicts that high performance followed by highrewards will lead to high satisfaction
Does this theory have universal application? Eden found some support for it while studying workers in Israel
Matsui and colleagues found it could be successfully applied in Japan
Expectancy theory could be culture-bound international managersmust be aware of this limitation in motivating human resources sinceexpectancy theory is based on employees having considerablecontrol over their environment (a condition that does not exist inmany cultures)
