Abstrakt: The existence of different models of national culture could be considered as a keystone for the research on cultural differences in management for the last century. The scientific approach on cultural differences has been facilitated and hindered by these models. On both a conceptual and empirical level, serious research on cultural differences in organization and management has been facilitated but in the same time inhibited by the existence of multiple - and often conflicting - models of national culture. In this paper we offer a review of the most known models of national culture, with the purpose of identifying the convergences and divergences among them. The purpose of our paper is to provide a mature reflection upon these different models by tracking various subtleties in their evolution and dispelling prevalent misconceptions.
