A map of how cultures shape minds

This is a smart, eye-opening read for anyone curious about why people from different countries can see the same situation so differently. Hofstede turns huge amounts of global research into ideas that feel surprisingly practical, especially around work, communication, and conflict. Readers often come away feeling like they’ve been given a new lens for understanding both organizations and everyday human behavior.

Description

Based on research conducted in more than seventy countries over forty years, Cultures and Organizations examines what shapes the way we think, feel, and act. In this revised and expanded edition, major new contributions from Michael Minkov's analysis of data from the World Values Survey, as well as an account of the evolution of cultures by Gert Jan Hofstede, are included. This edition reveals the moral circles from which national societies are built and the unexamined rules by which people think, feel, and act. It explores how national cultures differ in the areas of inequality, assertiveness versus modesty, and tolerance for ambiguity, and explains how organizational cultures differ from national cultures—and how they can be managed. It also analyzes stereotyping, language differences, cultural roots of the 2008 economic crisis, and other intercultural dynamics.
