| View Comments | No TrackBacks

Fons Trompenaars and Charles Hampden-Turner built upon Geert Hofstede's initial model of 5 dimensions of culture but came up with 7 slightly different ones.

Different in that reconciliation is possible. There is no longer black and white only. The presentation above compares Fons Trompenaars dimensions to the initial 5 cultural dimensions:

  1. Individualism/ Collectivism: Individualistic or selfish?
  2. Time Orientation: On time?
  3. Masculinity/ Femininity: Distinction between male and female?
  4. Uncertainty Avoidance: Minimizing uncertainty?
  5. Power Distance: Different levels of power?
