The purpose of this paper is to provide a comparative analysis of several key traits of the culture in the United States and Saudi Arabia, examine various concepts in Saudi Arabias business environment that are illustrative of its ranking, and demonstrate the continued viability of Hofstedes model as a stepping-stone to appreciation of culture.
