title = {Managerial Cultural Intelligence and Small Business in Canada},
year = {2010},
note = {This study of 122 executives in Canadian small businesses examined the
extent to which managerial cultural intelligence was a contributing
factor to the organizational effectiveness of small businesses. We
found that the cultural intelligence of small business managers
engaged in international business was higher than that of small
business managers in domestic-only firms. After controlling for firm
entrepreneurial orientation, we found that managerial cultural
intelligence was positively related to corporate reputation and
employee commitment, but not to the financial performance of small
businesses. Further, these relationships were similar for small
businesses that conducted international business and those that were
domestic-only. For internationalized small businesses, managerial
cultural intelligence was not influenced by the international scope of
business activities. One implication is that cultural intelligence is
a managerial competency that is not restricted to international
business contexts. Directions for future research on cultural
intelligence are identified.},
