How Authority and Decision-Making Differ Across Cultures

Erin Meyer, professor at INSEAD, discusses management hierarchy and
decision-making across cultures. Turns out, these two things don’t
always track together. Sometimes top-down cultures still have
strong consensus-driven decision-making styles — and the other way
around. Meyer helps break down and map these factors so that
managers working across cultures can adapt. She’s the author of the
article, "Being the Boss in Brussels, Boston, and Beijing" in the
July-August 2017 issue of Harvard Business Review.
