This document summarizes a master's thesis that studied how 18 Swedish multinational companies in Shanghai and Beijing develop the next generation of Chinese leaders. It involved interviews with top executives and high-potential Chinese employees. The thesis found significant gaps between how these groups viewed leadership and leadership development. For example, executives saw money as the main motivator for high-potentials, while they valued personal development more. Executives also underestimated the importance of work-life balance and visionary leadership to high-potentials. The study provides recommendations on how companies can better develop future Chinese leaders and bridge cultural differences, such as establishing mentorship programs and providing more international assignments.

DMR BLUE TRANSFORMATION & PEOPLEMANAGEMENT (FOKUS: GLOBAL LEADERSHIP)Marc Wagner
BEST-PRACTICE TRANSFORMATION & PEOPLEMANAGEMENT - FOKUS: GLOBAL LEADERSHIP
Many companies find themselves trying to deal with a market environment of overwhelming
complexity and maximum dynamics, moving at such a velocity that rigid local large corporate
structures and hierarchical “command and control” management methods cannot keep pace.
Established companies are being shunted to the side more and more often. Enterprises designed
to focus on constantly increasing efficiency are losing ground in competition with innovative
startups or are disappearing completely from the radar screen. This is primarily a cultural rather
than a strategic problem. A well-known Stanford professor once said: “Corporate culture without
strategy is meaningless. And a strategy without corporate culture is powerless.”
So what ingredients do companies, especially their management, need to secure their success in
the future? What can be done to ensure that transformation and innovation capability become
firmly established in the corporate culture, the cultural DNA? And what are the features of successful
transformation programs and their orientation in which efficiency and innovation are not
mutually exclusive?
In our search for the answers to these questions, we initiated dialogs with transformation experts
from various enterprises, seeking to determine the common success factors and lessons learned
which would enable us to present a range of examples showing how transformation competence
can be anchored in a company – whether in the form of transformation programs such as those at
E.ON or of a separate unit like “Group Transformation Change” at Deutsche Telekom AG. Our
special attention was devoted to the new, intercultural challenges which the leaders must confront
head-on in these novel and agile structures. For instance, we cast an intense spotlight on the
cultural
differences between the Asian and European regions and went into especially deep detail
while examining the European differences between France and Germany. As we did so, it was
important
to us to differentiate in our perspective and to see cultural differences as strengths and
enrichment – far removed from any classic stereotypes. Taking as our model diversity
management
at Otto Group, we show how the created diversity (which is not restricted to the single criterion
of
the various nationalities) can be exploited and steered. We describe the tried and tested method of
“organizational energy”, which reveals toxic and corrosive developments in companies, as a means
of making cultural changes and transformation requirements visible.
Come along with us on our “transformation journey” as we explore global leadership, cultural
change, and transformation best practice! I trust you will find inspiration as you read these articles
and wish you the best of success in applying what you learn from them!

Module 1 Assignment 1.1: Proposed Research Topic/Question
RESEARCH TOPIC QUESTION- A Study on the Impact of Leadership Style on Job Satisfaction and Performance Levels of the Employees
After taking a look at the guidelines for the final project (Mini Qualitative Study, due in Module 10), please submit a brief description of a proposed topic you can feasibly study through general qualitative inquiry (an interview, a field observation, and analyzing some documents or artifacts) during the term. This means, for example, a topic where you can easily contact someone for a valuable interview, can readily access the field (e.g., campus space, etc.) for an observation, and can view documents or other artifacts relevant to your understanding of the topic. For instance, a study interviewing multiple college presidents and observing closed-door state coordinating committee meetings is probably outside the scope of our work this term. You might, however, have a contact at your institution who can grant an interview and share some documents and recommend public spaces to observe related to a question about campus leadership more generally.
The purpose of this initial assignment is to propose a topic on which to focus your work this term, and receive feedback and guidance as to its feasibility in order to best set you up for success at the outset of our work together. As a result, you should submit approximately 500 words outlining the following:
· Research question or topic/focus area
· 3-5 citations of scholarly resources you will use to support your topic/focus area
· Institution or other setting, specifically, where you will situate the study
· 3-5 potential interview participants who would best shed light on the types of information you are seeking to understand
· Types of artifacts, symbols, documents, reports, or other existing materials you can realistically access to complement your analysis
While this is a mini qualitative study – intended as a realistic practice round rather than a high-stakes endeavor – it is not intended to be your capstone research. Therefore, you should have a different research question for this project than the one you developed in HED 650 for your ultimate capstone work. You are encouraged, though, to consider how the work you do in RES 654 can add value to your capstone, and whether an adjacent or tangential topic to explore qualitatively in our class might be useful.
Assignment requirements:
· Your assignment should be approximately 500 words in length (typically, two double-spaced pages), not counting cover page, reference list page, appendices, figures, or tables.
· Your assignment should include a title page and a reference list page (if using references), and be completed in Times New Roman 12-point font, double-spaced, with appropriate header, page numbers, one-inch margins, and meet all other requirements of APA Stylebook.
· References are not required but if included, please format them in the most current APA ...
