PDI represents five beliefs that discourage innovation. They are hierarchy, vertical discourage innovation. They are hierarchy, vertical communication, centralization of power, tight control communication, centralization of power, tight control over employees and resistance to changes in power over employees and resistance to changes in power distribution. Therefore we can formulate the following distribution. Therefore we can formulate the following proposition:proposition:
