organizational culture. As organizations are embedded within nations, organizations
will likely develop and evolve in ways that are in line with the surrounding national
culture (Sagiv, Schwartz, & Arieli, 2010). In particular, research has shown that the
individualism/collectivism national culture dimension influences organizational processes.
Bell’s (2007) meta-analysis shows that collectivism is one of the strongest
predictors of team performance. In other words, these findings suggest that members
in the organization are more likely to value cooperation and a team orientation in collectivistic cultures compared with individualistic cultures
