Globe stands for global leadership organizational behavior effectiveness. The study “verified definite leadership patterns across cultures, the main finding was that leader effectiveness is contextual—a leader’s efficacy is drawn from the norms of a society and its organizations, as well as the values and beliefs of its people” (Tuleja, 2022, p.270). House, Javidan, Hanges, and Dorfman (2002) highlight one such issue, arguing that the GLOBE study's dependence on self-
reported data may introduce biases and limits. The article discusses how a range of biased factors, such as social desirability and self-enhancement preferences, could impact self-report data. Additionally, respondents from various cultural backgrounds may perceive scales and questionnaire items differently, creating issues with measuring consistency. (House et al., 2002) This is significant because depending on cultural differences people may perceive the way questions are asked differently or their culture may affect their norms in response. Another criticism is the potential for cultural homogenization. The meaning of "cultural homogenization" describes the process of cultural convergence, in which various cultural practices, beliefs, and customs converge or standardize across many countries. (Insan, 2023) This shows an oversimplification of cultural diversity which is very significant because, by recognizing and appreciating the richness of cultural diversity it promotes acceptance, collaboration, and understanding between people and communities everywhere.
