1. The Meanings and Dimensions of Culture
Understanding the cultural context of a society, and being able
to respond and react appropriately to cultural differences, is
becoming increasingly important as the global environment
becomes more interconnected.
In 1980 Dutch researcher Geert Hofstede identified four
original, and later two additional,
dimensions of culture
that help explain how and why people from various cultures
behave as they do.
Utilizing
only the original four dimensions of culture
, define them and list a country that fits within each dimension
and give an example of how.
This assignment must be submitted in APA format with title
page, body of paper, references page, and the paper must
contain in-text citations for anything you write that is not
originally yours.
