TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated three distinct models of business culture found in present-day Russia: the state-oriented "bureaucratic entrepreneurship", the black-marketoriented "predatory entrepreneurship", and global-market-oriented competitive entrepreneurship.
Abstract: This paper investigates three distinct models of business culture found in present-day Russia: the state-oriented “bureaucratic entrepreneurship,” the black-market-oriented “predatory entrepreneurship,” and global-market-oriented “competitive entrepreneurship.” Using the results of an exploratory survey of cultural values of 450 Russian managers conducted in the framework of the multi-national project GLOBE (Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Research Program), we consider the relative strength of these models at present and possible future changes. We find that respondents' perception of the current business environment in Russia best fits bureaucratic and predatory models of entrepreneurship. At the same time, competitive entrepreneurship is generally viewed as a more desirable model for the future. Based on these findings the paper offers some practical recommendations to Western entrepreneurs and managers doing business in Russia.
