Abstract

Today’s IT service suppliers increasingly need to acquire “cultural intelligence”, or the ability to operate in a culturally-diverse environment. Based on an interview-based, qualitative case study of one of the largest IT service suppliers in China, this study explores how the offshore IT service supplier develops cultural intelligence through interaction with a portfolio of clients with diverse cultural backgrounds. Drawing on the dynamic constructivist view of culture, the study adapts the concept of cultural frame to define a set of shared interpretive schemes and practices that enable the supplier to make sense of and respond to clients from different cultures. During repeated client-supplier interaction, supplier employees’ cultural frames are continuously enacted, aligned and realigned, and eventually institutionalized into a set of cultural structures and artifacts. This emergence and embedding process is both facilitated by, and in turn enhances, the supplier’s firm-level cultural intelligence.
