Our article will address this issue from the point of a suitable management approach and appropriate team construction. Suitable management approach will be studied by calculating the correlations between country's Power Distance, Uncertainty Avoidance and Innovation Index. The aim of this empirical research will be to examine whether certain cultural dimensions are related to innovation creation, and whether certain managerial approaches empowers creativity or suppress it.
