Description
Summary:This study explored the relationship of influence tactics used by managers and the resulting degree of commitment that they saw in their subordinates as moderated by organizational power distance. The participants of this study (n = 260) are Filipino managers who are occupying middle and upper management levels in Philippine industries. The results using multiple regression analyses provide evidence that when managers use high degree of consultation, subordinates’ degree of commitment becomes low when power distance is high. Implications of the findings, limitations, and future research directions are provided.
