Individualism–Collectivism
This dimension is the extent to which needs and aspirations of individuals get priority and importance compared to needs of others and of collectivities. In individualistic cultures, personal autonomy, freedom, individual achievement, and right to privacy are valued. Collectivist cultures emphasize “we” awareness, loyalty to groups and clans, security and order from organizations, and group decisions. Australia and Great Britain are examples of Individualistic societies and Pakistan, Greece, and Peru are perceived to be Collectivist cultures.
