ABSTRACT
This chapter begins with an overview of New Zealand’s historical development, and the cultural themes that have emerged since European settlement in the 1800s. The GLOBE methodology in New Zealand is then described, and New Zealand’s pattern of responses to the GLOBE cultural scales is discussed. The next section provides a summary of research into organizational leadership, followed by presentation of the qualitative and quantitative findings of the GLOBE study. The concluding section summarizes the results, provides suggestions for expatriate managers in New Zealand, and identifies limitations of the study.
