Good topic, badly written

[edit]

I tried to make it more accessible for the average reader but it needs more work. Too many buzz words and bad sentence construction. I think the basic concept is sound however and the improvements worth doing.--ZadieTwinge (talk) 09:31, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Should there be a separate page on Power Distance Index (PDI)? It seems to be an appropriate topic.

Paragraph of Geert Hofstede feels out of place in introduction.

[edit]

The paragraph beginning "Dutch Psychologist Geert Hofstede is a well renown professor of organizational anthropology and international management, as well as the director for the Institute for Research on Intercultural Cooperation" feels weird and out of place. It seems unusual to give a biographical sketch about him and his work in the introduction, even if he did make contributions to the field of study of the topic of the article.

I feel like it would suffice to say something like "Research into power distance relationships at IBM and across cultures has led researchers including Geert Hofstede to propose multiple dimensions to power relationships in culture, and develop the Power Distance Index."

More detail could be given subsequently. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.193.188.165 (talk) 00:54, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Copyeditor passing by

[edit]

Care should be taken to avoid stating conclusions in Wikipedia's voice, as that can lead some editors to believe that it is improper synthesis. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 23:42, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism Section?

[edit]

Most of this appears to be tripe akin to "evolutionary psychology", and an effort should be made to compile a criticism section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.88.98.234 (talk) 15:58, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
