Culture

    My wife and I went to the Siam Niramit theatrical show in Bangkok, a cultural extravaganza of elegant dancing, joyful music, spectacular costumes, creative sets and delightful special effects. This is culture for tourists. Real culture is something quite different. It’s still about what and how we celebrate, but also our beliefs and values. Living culture is more like what we teach our MBA students about the World Values Survey and Hofstede’s six cultural dimensions. It’s about our attitude to uncertainty, whether masculine or feminine values dominate, how tolerant we are of inequality, and how much we respect hierarchical authority.
