"Managerial reality is not an absolute; rather it is socially and culturally determined. Managers, of any nationality, do not make decisions in a vacuum. Much of the way in which managers think, behave and make decisions is influenced by countless factors determined by cultural background. Management styles tend to reflect cultural norms; those of society at large and the more specific culture of a particular organization."
