Abstract

With the advent of transnational organisations, research aimed at finding psychological universals common to various cultures and their differences has become extremely relevant. Of great interest in this regard are sociocultural studies of the characteristics of the psychological influences of managers, ensuring the coherence of the work of the production group. The aim of our study: using the example of Russian and British managers to study the characteristics of their manipulative influences on subordinates. The paper lists and explains sociocultural differences in the choice of manipulation tools by managers and the attitude of their subordinates towards them. The study confirmed that the choice of a manipulative way of interaction is determined by a combination of internal and external causes, including cultural differences. The presence of internal causes of manipulation makes possible the emergence of 'manipulators' in any culture, and sociocultural differences determine the characteristics of the implementation of their manipulative inclinations.

易于操纵的管理者对下属影响的社会文化分析

随着跨国组织的出现，旨在寻找不同文化的心理共性及其差异的研究变得极其重要。在这方面，对管理人员心理影响特征的社会文化研究非常有兴趣，以确保生产小组工作的连贯性。本文的研究目的是:以俄罗斯和英国的管理者为例，研究他们对下属的操纵影响的特点。本文列举并解释了管理者对操纵工具选择的社会文化差异及其下属对操纵工具的态度。该研究证实，操纵互动方式的选择是由包括文化差异在内的内因和外因共同决定的。操纵的内在原因的存在使得“操纵者”在任何文化中都有可能出现，社会文化差异决定了他们操纵倾向的实施特征。
