In this study, it is aimed to
investigate the relationships between cultural dimensions of power distance and
collectivism with dimensions of organizational silence. The sample of the study consisted of 462 employees of
900 employees who work at a multinational company headquartered in Istanbul.
Data were
collected through a questionnaire. Regression analysis
was used to test hypotheses. Research results showed that power distance
increased acquiescent (β = .413, p <.05) and defensive (β = .363, p <.05)
silence, but it had no effect on protective silence. The results also showed
that collectivism decreased acquiescent (β= -.116, p<.05)
and
defensive (β= -.125, p< .05) silence, but it increased prosocial (β= .134, p< .05) silence.
