Hofstede's framework for assessing cultures began in the late 1970's, while in the later future, the GLOBE framework for assessing cultures began in 1993.

Hofstede based his survey on IBM workers in 40 countries and found that both managers and employees vary on five value dimensions of national culture. GLOBE based their data on 825 organizations in 62 countries and they identify nine dimensions of national culture.

Hofstede dimension are power distance, individualism versus collectivism, masculinity versus femininity, uncertainty avoidance, and long-term versus short-term. Some of the GLOBE dimensions are power distance, individualism/collectivism, humane orientation, performance orientation, uncertainty avoidance, gender differentiation, and future orientation.

The two frameworks are very similar and are used to understand the differences of employees from other counties. These frameworks can also be helpful in predicting and explaining behavior of employees.
