History

Background and Brief History of the GLOBE Project

The idea of a global research program concerned with leadership and organization practices (form and processes) was conceived by Robert J. House (The Wharton School: University of Pennsylvania) in the summer of 1991. A grant proposal was written in the spring of 1993 which followed a substantial literature review and development of an item pool containing 753 questionnaire items. GLOBE was funded in October of 1993 and the project formally began.
