 Egalitarian (decentralized)
Equality, people should get the same, be treated the same and respected the same.
 Hierarchical (centralized)
Bureaucracy, the nature of a hierarchy, arranged in order of rank.
 Person (informal)
 Task (formal)


3.Cultural mindset (universalism, ethnocentrism, parochialism)
Universalism
 The philosophical and theological concept that some ideas have universal application or
applicability (relevance). A belief in one fundamental truth is another important tenet
(principle, opinion) in universalism. (Christian universalism refers to the idea that every
human will be saved in a religious or spiritual sense.)
 Whoever you are and wherever you are, you should be treated fairly and equally.
 States that individuals should uphold certain values, like honesty regardless of the results.
The important values are the ones society needs to function.
