Session eight (Power and Change) and session 10 (Cross-Cultural Influences on
Change) of this course discusses the topic which can derail most change programs if
incorrectly used - power.
Your task is to compare Singapore and Australia in terms of Hofstede’s cultural
dimensions, and then discuss how national culture influences French & Raven’s
‘Five Bases of Power’.
From there, argue a case that the use of power in change programs may more
efficient, or less efficient, if the organisational change is happening in Singapore or
Australia.
