| Title |
Motivational Orientation of Canadian Anglophone and Francophone Managers
|
| Abstract |
The authors explored similarities and differences between Francophone and Anglophone managers in two Montreal-based companies in the mid-1970s with respect to perceived importance of and levels of satisfaction with various job factors. Questionnaire data were collected from 219 Francophone and 115 Anglophone lower to middle level managers of one "Anglophone" and one "Francophone" corporation. Results reveal that Francophones tended to consider certain job factors such as security, promotion opportunity, and technical supervision to be more important. Anglophones, however, tended to emphasize other job factors such as recognition, achievement, and interpersonal relations. Francophones tended to express a higher level of satisfaction with their job outcomes than Anglophones. There was some evidence of organizational selection and/or socialization of Francophone employees in the Anglophone organization. Results are interpreted by the authors in terms of the cultural differences that exist between the two groups.
