I didn't want to say that. But I agree from my observations.
So you take an acheivement culture person and suggest that his culture needs a "haircut", and guess what? He starts defending his culture. Sound familiar? Much of the heated threads have been based on this cultural difference. You don't get an acheivement culture to yield to the wishes of a non-acheivement culture just by requesting it. You have to provide a reason for that culture to acheive in a different direction. Otherwise, all you're going to have is conflict. Acheivement cultures pay no attention to the status of the person making the requests, there is no respect for "social lock-in". And vice versa.
