Abstract

This study analyzes the factors affecting user resistance to ERP in Vietnam, including the factors related to the cultural values of the users, which is rarely dealt in the previous ERP research. A research model is developed based on Klaus and Blanton [2010] and Hofstede [2011], consisting of the independent variables ('cultural value', 'system', 'organization', and 'process' related variables), a dependent variable ('user resistance to ERP') and a moderating variable ('self efficacy'). Major results of study include (1) users with high degree of uncertainty avoidance and femininity regard ERP as potential threat to their job and are likely to resist to ERP; (2) By training the users with high level of femininity to enhance their self efficacy, the degree of resistance to ERP can be reduced; (3) For ERP to be utilized successfully, systems should be developed in such a way in which working with ERP is not regarded as complex and difficult; and (4) communication and training play an important role in reducing the resistance of users.
