GLOBE was an international research consortium of 170 scientists from over 60 countries, launched in 1993 at the Wharton School of Management, Pennsylvania, under the direction of Robert House. [7] In 2020, the GLOBE project expanded, with data now collected from over 140 countries, involving over 400 scientists, available for intercultural comparisons. [8] Since 2018, Brodbeck has been a member of the GLOBE Board of Directors.

In total, he has authored eight books and published more than a hundred scientific articles.
