Long term Orientation VS. Short term Orientation
This dimension describes a society’s time horizon. Short-term oriented cultures value traditional methods, take a considerable amount of time to build relationships, and in general view time as circular. This means the past and the present are interconnected and that which cannot be done today can be done tomorrow. The opposite of this is long-time orientation, which sees time as liner and looks to the future rather than the present or the past. It is goal-oriented and value rewards.
