The article includes the following: first, a brief theoretical framework; second, the methodology used; third, the results of the comparative statistical analysis between Finnish and Mexican employees; fourth, general conclusions and their cultural explanation; and fifth, theoretical and practical implications of the study concerning the communicative competences required for effective communication between employees and their bosses in both national and international (global) organizations.This journal is registered under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License.
