OD and Cultural Values (1 of 4)
Cultures low in power differences are more compatible with organization development, with more decentralized, flatter, and collaborative organizations.
Cultures low in uncertainty avoidance are more compatible as indicated by more collaboration, rejection of Theory X, and greater gender equity.

Advice for the Global OD Practitioner (1 of 2)
Conduct a “cultural diagnosis” about the nature of change and perceptions of OD in the client environment.
Consider stability of the cultural values, within-country variation, and organizational cultural differences.

Advice for the Global OD Practitioner (2 of 2)
Consider what interventions might work in the given context for the relevant problem, and “evaluate the problem-appropriate interventions rankings on the dimensions of culture.”
Consider the match between culture and intervention choice.
Adapt as necessary.
