| Power Distance: I prefer smooth hierarchies. It makes more sense that there is someone to lead the team, but everyone should be equal. Individuality: I would prescribe myself here at about 50/50. Because I like to pursue my own goals, but also like to let others take precedence. I also like to move in groups.
Tolerance of Uncertainty: I love to have a safe enviroment in which I know that I will be safe in terms of sickness or anything in the future. Also I do not need to know what exactly I will do in my future but I enjoy having the saftey that Germany will secure my living cost etc.
Masculinity vs. feminity: I am into Feminism
Long Term vs. Short Term: I like to plan my life just in short Term.

| 1. Individualism-collectivism: This really depends on the kind of situation I am in. For instance when it comes to working on tasks that require more creativity I prefer to work on my own and not usually involve people. A perfect example would be making music, which I do it on my own. And when there is a requirement for strategy making or something that requires through collective thinking, I would then collaborate on with people. But again it depends on the situation, because I also work with people a lot and sometimes it is very much productive equally.
2. Power distance- This is a little tricky because there has to me some sort of power distance but not in a control manner rather supportive manner. For instance, I would like to have control of myself and perform tasks with guidance or support from the senior level. And instead of pushing someone to do work, I think its always good to encourage and provide feedback.
3. Uncertainty avoidance- This is definitely me. I do not like to take risks when it comes to life decisions. Because I have seen and experienced things, and it sometimes works out when I do not take a major decision. But I also love to take risks when it comes to fun or something casual. That could be skydiving or scuba diving. What's important to note for me personally is avoiding uncertainity with constructive thinking. Maybe think about the outcomes of the situation before making a decision.
4. Masculinity-femininity- I think I would like to have more female leaders today than men. It is simply the fact that good minds are not used properly. I have had supervisors who were female professionals and I had a really resourceful time working with them. I am not saying that working with male professionals didn't turn out to be productive, but it's just that I like how they perceive things in a different way. And the stereotype in many countries where women must remain at home and take care of children must change. Hopefully, in the coming years we see even more women leaders and professionals in various areas of work, and discipline. |

| power distance: i prefer to work in flat hierarchies. I would like to have the feeling of having a boss who knows what she/he wants, but supports me and gives me the space for my own ideas.
uncertainty avoidance: Thats a bit tricky. I think I separate decisions into important and unimportant ones. When it comes to the unimportant ones, e.g. what I'm going to take with me on vacation or what clothes I'm going to wear to the party tonight, I like to let things come to me. But when it comes to important ones, e.g. what city I want to live in or whether I should get a dog, I tend to think about it for a very long time and plan everything in detail.
individualism/collectivism: I think here it will be hardest for me to decide. I love to be with people and decide for all, but I also want to be independent and make my own decisions. I always get advice from my family when I have to make an important decision, but I also know that sometimes i want to do it different to what they say.
masculinity/femininity: As a woman I want to see more women in leadership positions. Women have always had to fight and stand up for their rights more than men. Women in Germany still earn less than men, why?
short-term/ long-term orientation: I actually plan more for the short term than the long term. Of course I have ideas where I would like to be someday, but on the whole you know that life always comes differently than planned, so why should i over think my future?

| Power Distance: I would position myself moreso egalitarian, though I would not completely rule out positioning myself as somewhat hierarchical. I think having room to work independently, without constant oversight, is vital. As well as feeling comfortable enough to approach your collegues who may be in higher-up positions. Though a clear sense of who you report to, or who may be responsible for certain projects/divisions/teams/etc. can also be beneficial for efficacy.
Emotionality: I would definitely position myself as neutral. I believe I have a great sense of self-awareness, as well as a strong capability of self-control. I value these characteristics in others, especially in a profession and serious setting. However, I am not callous! I do believe I am a very empathetic person, and personally feel as though I myself emote very much. I just simply do not display that in all environments. Rule Oriented: I would position myself as rule-oriented, though definitely far from the extreme if you were to look at it as a spectrum. I believe rules and laws that are justified, can be good guidance for a civil society.
Time Orientation: I would position myself as being more short-term oriented as I see it as being more manageable and likely that I can control. Though it is good to plan for the long-term, in the sense that you know where it is you would like to be in the future, say, career wise, family, education; you can only plan so far ahead. Not to mention any unanticipated life events that can completely change your plans. I have always been quite flexible and capable of adapting to new situations, which I think is necessary in an ever-changing world.

| Power distance: Here I think I lean more towards the hierarchical mode because I believe that this is the only way to make the right decisions, a lot of people don't have the same decision, and there will always be misunderstandings, that's why we need a person at the top to put the last point.
Emotionality: I'm kind of a sensitive person, but knowing me you won't be able to say this, I was taught that only my pillow at home knows my tears. I really like to fold my emotions according to the people with whom I am surrounded.
Rules-oriented: Honestly, I am a very perfectionist person and I love rules, my life itself is based on some rules that I like to respect. I don't like disorder, neither physical nor moral.
Orientation in time: I am a person with big achievable goals, maybe in a much longer time, but the plans I have are always for a short term, because I believe that this is the only way I will be able to control them for sure, so if you ask me how I see myself in five years I will say that I don't know, but if you ask me how I see myself in the next year, I will definitely tell you a lot.

| Uncertainty avoidance: I have a habit of having everything planned so I can feel comfortable that everything is going to go well. I see myself fitting right in between risk-taking and safety-loving, because I definitely enjoy taking risks if they are worth it and think that in order to be successful you'll need to take some calculated risks in life. Although having the safety of knowing what's coming is something I really appreciate. I enjoy to plan things, because I'm very time conscious person and want to make the best learning outcome out of evert situation. Sometimes it is important to just take it easy and trust others, because having control over everything is not possible and trying to have it is consuming.
Achievement Orientation: I see myself as an achievement-oriented person, because of my determination and tendency to make the best out of every moment. Performing well is important to me and sometimes I put a lot of pressure on my shoulders for it. It can be stressful sometimes and I also understand that these expections are easily transmitted to others in a negative way wy expecting others to perform on the same level. While pushing others to perform it also gives me motivation to not let them down. To achieve you need the help of others, so understanding other peoples limits and emotions is important.
Power Distance: This is higly dependable on the situation, but I would lean towards hierarchical, because from my previous experiences a team will not be able to work efficiently if there isn't a one to collect all the opinions and make the decision. My opinion is affected by my time serving in the army, because there I saw both situations and how efficient does a team work without a good leader. Good leader takes everybody in consideration when making the decision and puts themself on the line.

MORARIU M. ROXANA-MIHAELA

| Uncertainty avoidance: I have always been a spontaneous person. As a result, I live my life in a way that might seem pretty risky or stressful for people who like to plan everything ahead. This mindset has helped me navigate life easier as I was able to take on a new adventure whenever I would discover one, it also made it easier for me to adapt whenever something would not go as planned, and helped me maintain an overall positive towards life as I understood that there will always be new opportunities coming up and that a mistake or failure is just another lesson learned. Individualism-colectivism: I am a highly individualistic person. I like to try thing by myself, and make decisions based on my own experiences and understanding rather than to follow the norm and values existing in my surroundings. I like to think for myself, I like to challenge myself, and to make my own decisions that have my own happiness and wellbeing as end goal. Power distance: I understand the need for some hierarchy as I know that great power comes with great responsibility and not everyone is willing to take on that much responsibility on their shoulders. However, I believe that no matter your place within the hierarchy, mututal respect should exist at all levels and between all existing parties. Masculinity-feminity: I believe that for a well balanced life, a combination between masculinity and feminity is needed. I like some competitiveness as it helps bringing innovation, however, I also like a more relxed atmosphere where we work to live a happy and content life. So for this cultural dimension, I want to position myself somewhere in the middle of the two. |

| Uncertainty avoidance: I see myself representing both risk-taking and safety-loving poles of dimensions. My risk-taking side comes from my family and my sporting community where they encourage you to seek out new heights and challenges. My family has also traveled a lot and they have always been supportive of that. The safety-loving side is simply from being a Finn. We love that things are on solid grounds and you know there is something to fall back on if everything goes south.
Individualism: Individualistic is more accurate word when people try to describe me. I have been working alone my whole life and usually get the best result when there are no people in the way. I have done this in sports, academic career and with my work where I was a entrepreneur. It suits me and I find peace in that. It doesn´t mean that I´m not social, because my battery is very hard to deplete.
Emotionality: It´s not about that I don´t have emotions, but I have been taught to focus on the job and do your best. That is why in my day to day life I might seem unsocial on time to time. I still feel like the spontaneus comes out when there is a challenge a head or someone who can show me something new. So I feel like I can be very restraint and have a self-control and it might be hard to approach me.
Rule orientation: This comes totally from the Finnish roots. There are no other explanation for that, no way. I´m absolutely terrified to drive in Italy for example. I feel like they have zero regard for their lifes.
Context orientation: I do feel like I lean on the fact-oriented side on this occation. I need some proof if someone is trying to make a point and as the text said I like it when people ¨Get to the point!¨. I believe in science and do not have many beliefs so it is interesting to discover new cultures with different customs.

| Uncertainty avoidance- I can say it's fifty-fifty. I like to take risks and try something new even if I don't know what experiences and difficulties await me. But I am also cautious and I try to find out in advance at least a few things about the activity so as not to put my life in danger and have no way back. Individualism- I like to work in groups, but most of all I prefer to do things individually because I don't always trust the people I work with and for this reason, I question the final result. Emotionality- when I speak in public, I also try to communicate through body language, facial expressions and gestures, because I believe that in this way you capture attention and you can more easily express what you want to convey to the public Rule orientation- I'm not always rule-oriented, but I trust that laws, legal rules, and regulations will make coexistence as fair as possible for everyone. Laws and standards should apply to everyone, regardless of status and relationship.

| Power distance: I definitely prefer hierarchial structure. Just from my personal experience, I've noticed that this works the best in any kind of team work. However, I don't think that any persons ideas should be supressed so even tho there is structure and a leader, everyone should be involved in decision making to some degree.
Individualism: I lean more towards individualism here. I've always been comfortable relying on just myself and usually like to work alone as well.
Uncertainty avoidance: I am so much safety-loving in this dimension. I've always been more calculating person. I like to stick to what I know and prefer not to find myself in new situations that make me uncomfortable. Although, I do wish sometimes I knew how to be more of a "risk-taker".
Achievement orientation: I would say I am more achievement-oriented, although I think it could even be fifty-fifty here. I like to focus on myself, my hobbies and my career. However, in the recent years I think I've become more socially-oriented and have learned to value relationships more than personal achievements.

| Uncertainty avoidance: I think as everybody naturally I am more like safety-loving, but also part of me wants to take risks because otherwise nothing is done and nothing is experienced. You got to get out of your comfort-zone to blossom.
Individualism: I find myself identified more as individualistic than collectivistic person. I tend to live as keeping in mind the fact that you got to put your own mask before you help others. You need to be independent to hang on.
Emotionality: It depends on people around me whether I'm emotional or neutral. If they are trusthworthy of course I rely on them but otherwise not. For instance in teamwork the output is better when teammembers feels themselves accepted the way they are, which is attributed to they can show their feelings. Usually i tend to be more neutral since I don't want to make a fuss about my emotions.
Achievement orientation: I'm truly achiement orientated person. It gives me more satisfaction to get my individual tasks done that having others acceptance. In the same time I dont have any difficulties having a good relationship with others. I'm just being myself and the people meant to be will gather around me. I don't have to struggle making friends with everyone.

| Power distance: I value equality and democracy.I think both juniors and subordines are free to question or challenge the authority.
Individualism: I think we tend to get lost in a big mass of people, that we lose our authentical self ,so I tend to isolate myself, to protect myself.I like to doemd time with people but most of the time I like to do things on my own.
Short term/long term: It is hard to say cause I have an idea on a ling germ about what I want to do but on the short term I always do what I feel at the moment.I like to be spontanous. Feminine/masculine: I think gender roles should be fluid and flexible: men and women don't have necessarily separate roles so they should be able to change whenever they feel like it.

Uncertainty avoidance: I comply to this. I want to know that is happening and I want to do only the things which I'm good at and which I like to do. I try and push myself out of my comfort-zone. Individualism: I like working as a team, but I prefer more indepentendly working. I am used to do thing by myself and i prefer that too. In my opinion it is very important to do decisions on my own, rather than with a group. Short term/long term: I want to know guidelines, for at least, which tells me what and when is happening. I like that things can be done without planning, just with a gut feeling. I notice too, that I'm more productive when I have planned and schedueled my work. Rules-oriented: I'm rule-oriented. I think that it is important to follow rules, because society needs rules to go by with. Even the most horrible things in life, like war, have rules, because otherwise we would destroy our us all.

| Individualism and Masculinity: I prefer doing things on my own because I think that a have a claer focus on my own objectives. This is the reason why I can get quaite competitive when it comes to achievement and succes.
Uncertainty avoidance and Long term orientation: these two cultural dimension are strictly connected from my point of view. I don't like surprises: everything I do has to be planned far in advance in order to get where I want to. The objectives i set myself are always on the long term because in this way I have a complete overview.

DARIE I. LAVINIA TEODORA
|
| Power distance: I am leaning onto the culture of low power distance. I hardly accept hierarchies and I put large emphasis on the individual, considering that everyone should have an opinion to be taking into consideration when it comes to work or school, for example.
Rules-oriented: I consider a rigurous set of rules as restrictive and constraining to me; for this reason, I am not specifically rule oriented and I believe more in relative rules.
Low uncertainty avoidance: I do not try to minimize uncertainty by creating stabilty and a predictable timeline of events, but rather embrace new contexts and situations, being tolerant of change and, as mentiones before, keen on a less strict set of rules.

| Achievemnt Orientation: I am a person of goals. In my mind it makes sense that I try to fullfill my goals in order to not feel regrets of putting many obstacles between me and them. Personally I tend to feel regret if the finish line isn't met because of something I forced my self to do.
Rule Orientation: I feel a mix between following "generally applicable rules" and "the legal system". On one hand rules should be applied if they exist, because of them we have a supported society that grants most equality for all people. On the other hand some exceptions must be open, because we, as people and not omniscient beings, don't know every person background, and it could let to some frustrating events. Uncertainty avoidance: I more like a sefety-loving. Personally I prefer having things scheduled, because I feel more disconfort when are sudden changes, of course it may happen and we have to know how to adapt.
Power Distance: I prefer working as a team and not as a hierarchy. If all people have the same goal I view that people should share the same feeling of equality for achieving that purpose.

| Time structuring and Achievement Orientation: Time for me is crucial. I am a person who hates being late. Whether it's 1 minute, 10 minutes, whatever, I feel bad when I'm late somewhere. The same for tasks. If I am asked for something to do, I always like to do everything in my power to deliver the task before the expected delivery time. The opposite also applies. I don't like it when someone makes me wait. Arriving a few minutes later i still forgive, but much more than that affects me. My family once told me. That if they were asked to bet on someone who would never be late for something, they would bet on me
individualistic and collectivistic: I feel like I'm a mix of a person who loves belonging to a group but also feels the need to do work and live life alone. It depends on the days. I'm a very extroverted person, which means I talk to other people more often than usual. I like making new friends and being able to talk with them. But in a work context, I am a more individual person. I prefer to do my own work. Studying and working in my corner listening to my music. Sometimes, even when I go for a walk and go out, I like to go alone to reflect on everyday life, and enjoy the beauty that is solitude and silence (in a good way).
*Emotionality: I am an emotional person. I may not show it much on a daily basis, but if there is something important to me, it is my family. My friends are also important. I even have a friend who I consider family. In my daily life, I take actions mostly thinking about the people who are important to me. Sometimes I'm very impulsive, but when I'm aware, I take actions thinking more about others than about myself.

Lovre Raffanelli
|
| Power Distance: I prefer a mixture of high and low power distance. It is my belief that the best combination of a society is the one in which the hierarchical order is cleary visible, but every member is treated with respect and equality. Collectivism: Being a part of a community fulfills me because I enjoy being a part of a harmonized and loyal community and work in teams.
Masculinity and feminity : For me we should all strife towards a mixture of both aspects, such as ambition, achievements, caring for others, work-life balance and quality of life.
Uncertainty avoidance : I prefer to organise my personal and work life to achieve all goals and have fun. Long-term organisaton : I believe it is in my interest to strive towards long-term organisation so I could adapt to all circumstances.

| Uncertainty Avoidance: I try to avoid uncertainty at most times. I prefer to plan my week and list the things that I need to do, for example: planning my work and personal life to have a good balance
Individualism: I have a preference for individual work when it comes to handling my own tasks, although I do enjoy collaborating in group settings.
Power Distance: I have a preference for working within organisations that have flat organisational structures. Its a good way to communicate with the executive of a company without having different levels of middle management in between

Uncertainity avoidance- It depends, I always check what is the upside and what is the downside and can I live with the downside. I like to take risks, but calculated risks where I have done the preparation work and I belive that the odds are on my side.
Power distance- It depends, but generarly speaking I prefere hierarchical structure where all people have clear roles and responsibilities.
Individualism- I prefere working alone because I can focuse all of my attention on the task that is in front of me.
Achievement orientation- I believe in setting goals and beeing achievement oriented, but I also value relationships I have with other people.
Time structuring- Based on Hall's "Monochronic vs. Polychronic Understanding of Time", I fall in a groupe with a monochronic understanding of time. I appreciate punctuality and believe in having a work schedule.
Emotionality- I tend to express positive emotions and controll negative emotions. I am a lover of Stoicism and believe in controlling your emotions and acting rationally.
Rule orientation- I am more rule orientated, I believe laws and order are keeping our society safe.
Contex orientation- I am more fact orientated and direct in my communication. I also prefere when other people are direct with me and use facts and evidance in our discussions.
