This study examined the relationships between attitudes toward diversity management and cultural preferences. A total of 225 students in undergraduate and graduate programs at a private Texas university agreed to take part in the study which included a diversity questionnaire consisting of ten questions designed to measure attitudes toward diversity management. Students were then asked to complete the GLOBE research survey. Sections 1 and 3 asked about their society and rated their perception of leaders and leadership. In sections 2 and 4, students were presented with a list of behaviors and characteristics that a leader might display. They were then asked to rate these behaviors and characteristics using the scale 1-7 (greatly inhibits to contributes greatly). Section five consisted of the demographic questions. The dependent variable was attitudes toward diversity management. To measure diversity management, a pilot study with 19 Ph.D. students was conducted to determine the appropriateness of the 8-point Likert scale instrument. The independent variables included nine GLOBE study cultural preferences and the six GLOBE leadership dimensions. The data for this study were analyzed using correlation and regression analyses. Study results indicated that there was a relationship between attitudes toward diversity management and the nine cultural preferences. None of the control variables were statistically significant. Results also showed that there were relationships between attitudes toward diversity management and the six GLOBE leadership dimensions. Again, none of the control variables were significant. Finally, results of the study indicated that there were relationships between the nine GLOBE cultural preferences and the four leadership dimensions of team-oriented leadership, charismatic leadership, autonomous leadership, and self-protective leadership. Gender was the only control variable that was statistically significant when team-oriented leadership or self-protective leadership was an independent variable. No control variables were significant when charismatic or autonomous leadership was an independent variable.
