This study aims to reveal multinational company managers' perceptions of cultural difference management.

The companies in the research sample are: Coca Cola, MAN Tukiye A.S, Siemens, Real, Metro, CarrefourSA, Media Markt, IKEA, and Bauhaus. The research findings suggest that multinational company managers are aware of cultural differences, along with their advantages and disadvantages, that they believe in their significance for the advantages, and that they have the skills to turn cultural differences into advantages.
