Trompenaars' model of culture

Trompenaars' model of culture identifies how people's behaviors, values, and ways of working differ across cultures. It highlights seven key dimensions, such as how societies handle hierarchy (hierarchy vs. equality), attitudes toward uncertainty and change, and the importance of individual versus group goals. Understanding these differences helps people better communicate, collaborate, and succeed in international settings by recognizing underlying cultural norms and preferences. Essentially, it provides a framework to understand why people from different backgrounds may approach work and social interactions differently.
