Question Description
Leadership and Culture
There are examples of individualistic and collectivist cultures found in every group or community. However, each nation is typified by one or the other types of cultures (Hofstede, 1980). In the early 1990s, the United Kingdom (UK) debated over accepting the Euro as its currency, eventually opting out of adopting it as the common currency in 1992. In June of 2016 a new vote was taken regarding the option to exit the European Union spearheaded by the Prime Minister and his political party.
Preliminary steps:
Define the differences between Individualism vs Collectivism
Analyze how the UK is more of an individualistic culture versus a collectivist culture (Read Chapter 12 in your text, Box 12.3, Can You Be Comfortable with Conflict?) based on the present UK relationship with the European Union. (SEE ATTACHED)
Read “Managing and Moving” in your text on pages 266–268. (SEE ATTACHED)
Read about “Brexit” concerning the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom’s leadership involvement. (SEE ATTACHED)
Checklist:
- Briefly summarize what happened.
- Analyze the following:
- The individualistic culture of the U.K. versus a collectivist culture and how that possibly influenced the “Brexit” vote.
- How could the Prime Minister have more successfully communicated and led his nation to achieve his desired goal based on the individualistic culture?
