Globalization of leadership development: An empirical study of impact on German and Chinese managers

Globalization of Leadership Development: An Empirical Study of Impact on German and Chinese Managers
Journal · pp. 1-426
Abstract

It is generally understood that some effective leadership behaviors of Chinese managers differ from those of Western managers. It has also been debated controversially whether Chinese learners can benefit from Western learning approaches. Taking these two aspects into consideration, Jingjing Wang examines whether a global leadership development program from Western countries has as much impact on Chinese managers as on Western managers. She conducts the empirical study within one global corporation originating from Germany and the data were collected from Germany and China. Based on the core results of the study, implications for the globalization of leadership development are discussed. © Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden 2015.
