It is a collectivist society. The world avg. is 45. People specialize in their field of work and group to complete a task. Masculinity (MAS) : Masculinity (MAS) Refers to how much a society sticks with, and values, traditional male and female roles A masculine culture emphasises status derived from wages and position; a feminine culture emphasises human relations and quality of life. Characteristics of MAS : Characteristics of MAS Application : Application Malaysia is highly masculine with a score of 50 whereas Sweden has the lowest measured value (5). If you were to open an office in Malaysia, you might have greater success if you appointed a male employee to lead the team and had a strong male contingent on the team. In Sweden, on the other hand, you would aim for a team that was balanced in terms of skill rather than gender World avg. is 51 Uncertainty Avoidance Index (UAI) : Uncertainty Avoidance Index (UAI) Relates to the degree of anxiety society members feel when in uncertain or unknown situations Characteristics of UAI : Characteristics of UAI Application : Application When discussing a new project with people in Malaysia, whose country scored a 36 on the UAI scale, it is sufficient to present a limited number of choices, with brief information . World average is 65. Long term Orientation : Long term Orientation Refers to how much society values long-standing - as opposed to short term - traditions and values Characteristics of LTO : Characteristics of LTO Application : Application People in the United States(29)and United Kingdom(25) have low LTO scores. World avg. is 48 This suggests that you can pretty much expect anything in this culture in terms of creative expression and novel ideas. The model implies that people in the US and UK don't value tradition as much as many others, and are therefore likely to be willing to help you execute the most innovative plans as long as they get to participate fully.
