a professional academic audience (PhD-Level)

This research paper is for a professional academic audience (PhD-Level), so please use the appropriate wording and references. Please use clear formulations and write on point. Its essential that you work with the book: Culture, leadership, and organizations: The GLOBE study of 62 societies. Please take your time to work thoroughly. This work is a scientific debate on leadership in a cultural context. In the course of this work, the following question will be discussed: Which differences exist between the leadership-styles and leadership philosophy of the west and the east, in particular Germany and Taiwan? The theoretical framework will be the GLOBE-Study (Culture, Leadership, and Organizations: The GLOBE Study of 62 Societies) and its Construct. Its important that you use this book for the work; I will provide it for you. House, R. J., Hanges, P. J., Javidan, M., Dorfman, P. W., & Gupta, V. (Eds.). (2004). Culture, leadership, and organizations: The GLOBE study of 62 societies. Sage publications. The paper globesummary-by-michael-h-hoppe that I will provide for you as well is a good first step to get a good overview over the topic of the GLOBE-Study. 1 Introduction (not more than 350 Words) This part shall include: 1. The relevance of the topic of culture and Leadership. Why I want to compare East and West? (this question shall be answered later in the conclusion) (40%) 2. The general introduction to the GLOBE Study (40%) 3. Methodology and structure of this paper (Introduction, Theory 50% [The GLOBE Study], Empirical Part 40% [Comparing the leadership styles and philosophies of Germany and Taiwan], Conclusion) (20%) 2 Global Leadership and Organizational Behaviour Effectiveness (GLOBE) Study (only Theory!) (1500 Words) This chapter should be only theoretical, dont use empirical findings. In fact only use the theoretical framework from the GLOBE study (Culture, Leadership, and Organizations: The GLOBE Study of 62 Societies). First of all I need you to write down the theoretical basement of the GLOBE Study, builds on findings by Hofstede (1980), Schwartz (1994), Smith (1995), Inglehart (1997). (approximately 200 Words). Then you can start with the cultural dimensions. Those are theoretical Constructs (use this term). 2.1 Cultural Dimensions (40%) Before you start with the first cultural Dimension write an introduction to this part (What are cultural Dimensions? Who mentioned them first in the literature? Who defined the term in its current interpretation?) (100 Words). You will find each dimension in part IV (from p. 235) of the book (Culture, leadership, and organizations: The GLOBE study of 62 societies) 2.1.1 Power Distance For example: The degree to which members of a collective expect power to be distributed equally etc. 2.1.2 Uncertainty Avoidance 2.1.3 Humane Orientation 2.1.4 Collectivism I (Institutional) 2.1.5 Collectivism II (In-Group) 2.1.6 Assertiveness 2.1.7 Gender Egalitarianism 2.1.8 Future Orientation 2.1.9 Performance Orientation 2.2 Culture Clusters (20 %) Before you start with the first cluster write an introduction to this part (What are Culture Clusters? Who mentioned them first in the literature? Who defined the term in its current interpretation?) (100 Words) In General: This first step allowed GLOBE to place countries into country clusters. Cultural similarity is greatest among societies that constitute a cluster; cultural difference increases the farther clusters are apart. For example, the Nordic cluster is most dissimilar from the Eastern European. Important: Focus on the two most important Clusters, Confucian and Germanic. Together they should make up about 50 % of the Culture-Cluster-chapter. Try to find out only the most outstanding features for the rest. You will find each cluster part IV (from p. 235) of the book (Culture, leadership, and organizations: The GLOBE study of 62 societies) you have to use the book. 2.2.1 Anglo 2.2.2 Germanic (Germany) (25 % of this part) 2.2.3 Latin European 2.2.4 African 2.2.5 Eastern European 2.2.6 Middle Eastern 2.2.7 Confucian (Taiwan) (25 % of this part) 2.2.8 Southeast Asian 2.2.9 Latin American 2.2.10 Nordic 2.3 Leader Styles (35%) Before you start with the first Leader Style write an introduction to this part (What are Leader Styles? (100 Words). As in previous parts of the paper you shall only focus on theory, no empirical findings! Try to describe all styles as theoretic as possible by using scientific journal articles. The small description under each Leader Style is just for the first understanding; you have to write them by yourself. You will find each Style in part IV (from p. 235) of the book (Culture, leadership, and organizations: The GLOBE study of 62 societies) and in other leadership literature. 2.3.1 performance-oriented style The performance-oriented style (called “charismatic/value-based” by GLOBE) stresses high standards, decisiveness, and innovation; seeks to inspire people around a vision; creates a passion among them to perform; and does so by firmly holding on to core values. 2.3.2 team-oriented style The team-oriented style instills pride, loyalty, and collaboration among organizational members; and highly values team cohesiveness and a common purpose or goals. 2.3.3 participative style The participative style encourages input from others in decision-making and implementation; and emphasizes delegation and equality. 2.3.4 humane style The humane style stresses compassion and generosity; and it is patient, supportive, and concerned with the well-being of others. 2.3.5 autonomous style The autonomous style is characterized by an independent, individualistic, and self-centric approach to leadership. 2.3.6 self-protective (and group-protective) style The self-protective (and group-protective) style emphasizes procedural, status-conscious, and ‘face-saving’ behaviors; and focuses on the safety and security of the individual and the group. 3 Compering the Leadership Style and Philosophy of Taiwan and Germany (Empirical Part) (1150 Words) In this part you have to compare Germany and Taiwan based on the theoretical framework of the parts before. As we want to compare Taiwan and Germany its important that you have to focus on the Germanic and the Confucian clusters. Also mention the information of the previous sentences in the introduction of this chapter (100 Words). In this part you can finally use empirical findings as concrete examples about both countries and the clusters. The fowling part shall include: 1. Its important to underline all the question below with specific example you find in other research papers: 2. Which manifestations does the cultural dimension have on Germanic (Germany) and Confucian Cluster (Taiwan)? 3. What are the characteristics of Germany and Taiwan in considering of the Culture Clusters? 4. What are the typical leader styles of Germanic (Germany) and Confucian Cluster (Taiwan)? 3.1 Germany (40%) 3.1.1 Cultural Dimensions 3.1.2 Culture Clusters 3.1.3 Leader Styles 3.2 Taiwan (40%) 3.2.1 Cultural Dimensions 3.2.2 Culture Clusters 3.2.3 Leader Styles 3.3 The main differences in leadership style and philosophy between Germanic (Germany) and Confucian (Taiwan) Cluster (20%) Here you have to compare both clusters directly. Try to find the most outstanding features of both clusters and confront them. Her you can get philosophical and creative. 4 Conclusion (300 Words) Respond to the introduction (30%) Summary of main statements of the paper (60%) Show the limitation of this work limitations of the GLOBE Study Thank you very much!
