Importance of power distance




Power distance is a very important issue in terms or intercultural relations because there are countries with a big level of power distance, and in countries like these ones employees are very afraid of speaking to their bosses because they are the ones that give them orders and they can not go against their bosses ideas because they think they are going to be fired if they do that and they are not thinking in a wrong cause that is the truth.



Most of the latinamerican countries have this problem or this issue if we can call it a problem but this power distance explains why there are more poor people in countries with high power distance than the ones that have low power distance, this is because there are not to many bosses in those countries, differently from latin america where if you just started in a new job you are going to have like ten different bosses, and each one of these bosses has a boss. I dare to say that low power distance is a very good thing for a country because almost all of the people in countries like these ones have a good profit and this profit is almost the same if you are the president or the vice-president of a company because you are not afraid of speaking to your boss and because there is a low power distance in these countries.














In low power distance countries a normal employee would not be afraid of talking to his highest boss because they can talk just like friends and they can start a good conversation because they have a very small number of supervisors that is why there is not a big hierarchical distance between them.
