Importance of RESPECT in Various Cultures
P Owen, USA
I believe respect for authority, age, position, has blurred and decreased - over time, sometimes because people have proven themselves unworthy of respect. Some cultures retain greater respect for adults, males, people in position, older people, etc. and interactions reflect this. Even language choices reflect respect - formally and informally. How is respect in differing cultures seen in management, business, raising children, coaching executives, managers, leaders, subordinates and children? Long term vs short term, male vs. female may be easier to define than power distance and uncertainty avoidance.
