Would you trust your foreign manager? an empirical investigation

Article Abstract:

Firms which operate a policy of employing workers of the same nationality benefit from a higher degree of respect and trust at management level, according to research. Multinational companies benefit from establishing a clear policy of employing people of similar but not necessarily the same national background. This policy is considered to create the best environment for managers and workers to benefit from maximum trust.
