| Abstract: | In a global marketplace, managers often face major difficulties when it comes to handling ethical problems within a different
cultural context. Whistleblowing is one possible response to ethical problems. This study considers the differences in culture
between a United States sample of managers and a Jamaica, West Indies sample of managers using Hofstede's (1991) theory of
International Cultures. The study explores how those cultural differences may help in our understanding of the differences
in reported whistleblowing tendencies.
