Résumé

Cross-cultural Competence (CC) of managers in globally dispersed MNE affiliates is one of the most effective means to overcome the liability of foreignness. Although managers high in biculturalism may have more resources than monoculturals to acquire (and deploy) CC in mitigating liability of foreignness, this has not been adequately examined. We contribute by examining the influence of two new antecedents of CC –biculturalism and Attributional Complexity. In four studies, we find that these antecedents are related to CC, effectiveness outcomes, and show incremental value over established personality traits in predicting them. We discuss contributions, limitations, future directions, and managerial implications.
