Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Management Styles, grade: 1,7, University of Applied Sciences Münster, language: English, abstract: This paper focuses on the scope of leadership in China and Germany. This intensive investigation will be used in this paper to research Chinese and German leadership preferences and challenges that may occur when working cross-culturally in one of the two countries. Leaders must understand the differences of cultures and learn how to successfully adapt and chose adequate leadership styles since ideas of leadership differ across cultures. It is getting even more critical due to the boosted global integration and the evolving challenges of international corporation and collaboration. If international businesses ignore culturally specific needs, corporations fail because of intercultural misinterpretations. The challenges of international collaboration can be solved by addressing culturally necessary actions and managing cross-cultural relationships with suitable sets of behavioral and emotional approaches. Therefore, this paper will firstly focus on different approaches and models that compare cultures. The Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness (GLOBE) Project and its specific cultural dimensions will be introduced afterward. Secondly, leadership will be defined and viewed from the perspective of GLOBE. Thirdly, the cultural dimensions and leadership styles of GLOBE, will be applied to China and Germany. Possible issues when working in these countries, as well as proposals to prevent these obstacles, will be discussed lastly.

Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 2,0, University of applied sciences, Düsseldorf, course: Soft Skills and Leadership, language: English, abstract: Executive Summary This assignment will provide a short overview about the GLOBE project and is based on different research in books, papers, master thesis and professorial dissertations. The Global Leadership and Organizational Behaviour Effectiveness Research Program has started in 1993 and continues until today. The aim of the GLOBE project was to develop societal and organisational measures of culture and leadership attributes that could be used across cultures (House, Hanges, Ruiz-Quintanilla, Dorfman, Javidan, Dickson, Gupta et al., 1999). Before starting the project a common understanding and definition of Leadership and Culture was achieved. GLOBE researchers agreed to define the LEADERSHIP: “Leadership is the ability of an individual to influence, motivate and enable others to contribute towards effectiveness and success of the organizations of which they are members” (House et al. 2004; 15). The GLOBE team used the four leadership attributes developed by Geert Hofstede: uncertainty avoidance, masculinity femininity, individualism-collectivism, and more recently future orientation (Hofstede 1980, 1991) as a basic and developed nine leadership characteristics: Performance Orientation, Uncertainty Avoidance, Humane Orientation, Institutional Collectivism, In-Group Collectivism, Assertiveness, Gender Egalitarianism, Future Orientation, Power Distance. The cultural differences of attribute influences are analysed in the research project. The questionnaire is to be answered from middle mangers and white collar workers coming of the following industries: food processing, financial services, and telecommunications services. The research was split into four parts. As first step the two pilot projects was initiated in order to prepare the questionnaire and to test the stability of the analysis method. Based on the results seven hypotheses were developed and investigated in the second step. Both first steps are finished. Depending on confirmation of all seven hypotheses the implicit leadership theory has to be developed in the third phase of project. This third phase is in the process. The last part of project must test the theory items in laboratory and in the field. Some preliminary findings are shown at the end of this assignment.

Book excerpt: Along with the process of globalization, the need of multinational companies to manage business activities abroad is steadily increasing. The book "The Influence of Trust on Leader-Member Exchange in Culturally Diverse Leader-Member Dyads" addresses this need on the dyadic leadership level, examining in depth how trust is influencing working relationships and their professional output in cross-cultural leader-member dyads. Due to their greatly differing management practices, focus is laid on German-Chinese dyads, which constitute a particularly rich example of cultural diversity. Going beyond the mere importance of trust, the book identifies differences in the trust-building process between Germans and Chinese, thus highlighting the general weight of culture in international leadership practices. Through profound research and numerous references the book provides a broad overview over the areas of LMX, German and Chinese leadership practices as well as cultural diversity. It addresses both researchers and managers who deal with cultural diversity in leadership.

Book excerpt: Culture, Leadership, and Organizations reports the results of a ten-year research program, the Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness (GLOBE) research program. GLOBE is a long-term program designed to conceptualize, operationalize, test, and validate a cross-level integrated theory of the relationship between culture and societal, organizational, and leadership effectiveness. A team of 160 scholars worked together since 1994 to study societal culture, organizational culture, and attributes of effective leadership in 62 cultures. Culture, Leadership, and Organizations: The GLOBE Study of 62 Societies reports the findings of the first two phases of GLOBE. The book is primarily based on the results of the survey of over 17,000 middle managers in three industries: banking, food processing, and telecommunications, as well as archival measures of country economic prosperity and the physical and psychological well-being of the cultures studied.

Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Frankfurt am Main, language: English, abstract: Today’s business environment is more global than ever. The multinational and cross-cultural business activities have increased tremendously over the last decades, a trend that is about to continue. “Global Village” is a term often used in this context. Due to the fact that people’s consume and buying preferences increasingly converge throughout the globe (manifested by the worldwide success of brands such as Apple, BMW, Coca Cola but also the entertainment industry – Holly-/Bollywood, Pop music etc.),one might get the impression that differentiation in regard to cultural differences becomes less important. The question is to what extent and in which areas this mindset is valid in business life. Is it reasonable to assume that successful leadership styles can be universally applied, no matter in which country and cultural setting the leader fulfills his/her job? The objective of this paper is to discuss, depict and elaborate on the question of appropriate leadership styles in the three different countries: USA,Germany and India. The aim is to examine – based on an analysis of the cultural differences – if and how leadership styles need to be adapted in order to be successful in each of the three countries.
