if you were to visit Israel or do business there you will have to know where Israel stands on Geert Hofstede’s scale of cultural dimensions. Specifically in the categories of high/lower power distance and high/low uncertainty avoidance. According to “Intercultural Communication in the Global Workplace” Power distance is “the degree to which less-powerful members of an organization tolerate unequal distribution of power, say, between managers and employees. Also according to Intercultural Communication in the Global Workplace” Uncertainty avoidance is “the tendency to behave so as to arrange things in a way that minimizes unforeseen consequences; uncertainty tolerance results in behavior that is less concerned with unforeseen consequences.”
