Abstract
This study explores the universality of collaborative modes of consultancy intervention as a means of securing organisational improvement. Collaborative modes of intervention have been found to be effective in low power distance cultures (UK and US). The efficacy of collaborative and non‐collaborative interventions in a high power distance culture (India) were compared and it was found that the non‐collaborative intervention resulted in greatest organisational improvement, indicating that culture may be a factor which affects the efficacy of particular models of intervention.
