The definition of Crossvergence was first established by David A. Ralston and colleagues in the 1993 JIBS article, "Differences in Managerial values: A study of U.S., Hong Kong and PRC managers (Ralston, Gustafson, Terpstra & Cheung, 1993). Crossvergence theory stands for the synergistic process of values/behavior evolution resulting from the interaction of socio-cultural influences and business ideology influences (Ralston, 2008). Crossvergence is a synergistic perspective of values formation and evolution that addresses the ... incomplete explanation of the previously proposed convergence and divergence perspectives (Ralston, 2007).

Crossvergence is a theory which takes multi-level factors into consideration to develop a model to predict how values and ethics in societies change over time and what are the dominant driving forces behind it and furthermore relates this cross-cultural research back into international workplaces.
