HOW DO CULTURAL FOOTPRINTS MARK
SPECIFIC BEHAVIOR AT WORK IN INDIA?
Our exposure to western influences is very unlikely to be stronger than
the influence of our cultural values received during the formative years.
The orientation of being rather than doing, along with high power
distance may hamper effective teamwork and acceptance of self-
managing teams as a work form.
