One criticism of Hofstede’s work is that the scores on each dimension reflect only an ‘average tendency’ of a particular country and, therefore, inadequately reflect the wide range of responses given within a country to the survey, particularly from subcultures. Look up the profile of your country, as given on the Geert Hofstede website (www.geert-hofstede.com) and consider its analytical value, particularly with regard to any subcultures that you are aware of within your country.
