Summary/Abstract: Authors present results of the international research GLOBE Student concerning Slovakia and Slovenia. The nine cultural dimensions, on the basis of which the comparative analysis of obtained data was realized, significantly influence various aspects of management and organizational behavior. Authors pose several research questions: How do the perceptions of Slovak and Slovenian respondents concerning the cultural practices differ? How do the cultural values of Slovak and Slovenian sample of respondents differ? Which leadership styles are preferred by the Slovak respondents? Do their preferences in this regard differ from the preferences of their Slovenian counterparts? Based on the research results, could be a cultural convergence between these two societies expected?
