FAMILY ORIENTATION IN ASIAN ORGANIZATION: A
Leader’s Challenge
12. DEFINITIONS
Organizational culture refers to the beliefs and values that have existed in an organization
for a long time, and to the beliefs of the staff and the foreseen value of their work that will
influence their attitudes and behavior.
Leadership culture is how leaders interact with one another and their team members. It
important to building organizational culture. It’s the way leaders operate, communicate,
and make decisions. And it’s about the everyday working environment: their behaviors,
interactions, beliefs, and values.
Effective leadership is one of the greatest fundamentals to building great organizational
cultures. A leader can be anyone who has influence or authority, regardless of title, and
leaders set the tone for organizational culture. Leaders can reinforce values while
simultaneously holding people accountable. This influence over others can either be
positive or negative based on the leadership style and execution of strategy, but both
effective and ineffective leadership will influence and build organizational culture in the
workplace.
13. Culture and leadership are deeply intertwined. Leaders play a

17. FAMILY ORIENTATION IN ASIAN ORGANIZATION: A
Leader’s Challenge
Family orientation is a common cultural trait in many Asian societies, which can also be
reflected in how organizations operate. IN this context, a leader’s challenge is to find a
balance between maintaining strong familial ties within the organization and achieving
business objectives.
Family is important in every society. However, in developing countries, family has the
priority in people's lives. Work and family lives are closely interrelated.
Achievement at work is valued as a means of satisfying family needs and increasing
family's status in society. Family atmosphere is also created in organizational context.
18. First, organizations are expected to take care of workers as well as their families. Some
organizations institutionalize practices such as offering health and educational services to
employees' spouse and children. Moreover, employees feel entitled to absent themselves
from work for family-related reasons. Work always comes next to family, and there is nothing
more natural than this.
Second, the subordinate-superior relationship resembles that between a parent and a child.
Superiors treat their employees like their children, and this is a very common practice that is
referred to as 'paternalism'
19. One insight is that family orientation can lead to a strong sense of loyalty
and commitment among employees, which can be beneficial for the
company’s growth and sustainability. However, this can also result in
nepotism, favoritism, and resistance to change, which can be detrimental
to organizational effectiveness.
Another insight is that family orientation can also impact decision-making
processes within the organization. For instance, leaders may prioritize the
interests and needs of employees nd their families over the stakeholders,
which may negatively affect the organization’s reputation and financial
performance
20. • Therefore, leaders in Asian organizations need to be aware of the
potential benefits and challenges associated with family
orientation and work towards developing a healthy balance. This
may involve creating clear policies and procedures to address
nepotism and favoritism, promoting transparency and
accountability in decision-making, and fostering a culture of
continuous improvement and innovation. Ultimately, leaders
must find ways to leverage the strengths of family orientation
while mitigating its potential drawbacks in order to drive
organizational success.
21. BIBLE VERSE
The Lord in like a father to his children.
Tender and compassionate to those who
fear Him… the love of the Lord remains
forever with those who fear Him. His
salvation extends to the children’s children.
Psalm 103, 17
Strategic human resource leadership involves the development and implementation of HR strategies that align with the overall business strategy of the organization. It involves identifying the workforce needs required to achieve the strategic goals, developing a talent acquisition strategy, implementing effective employee training and retention programs, setting employee performance metrics, and providing HR infrastructure to enhance and support employee performance.
A strategic HR leader works closely with senior management to understand organizational objectives, challenges and opportunities and implements HR systems and initiatives that support the achievement of these objectives. This involves leveraging data analytics to make data-driven decisions and measuring the impact of HR initiatives on organizational performance. Effective strategic HR leadership helps organizations to attract, retain and develop the best talent, and drive overall business success.
An example of strategic human resource leadership is a company that wants to expand its business to a new market. A strategic HR leader would work with senior management to identify the workforce needs required for this expansion, such as identifying new skills, language proficiency, or cultural awareness. They would develop a talent acquisition strategy that targets candidates with the required skill set and experience, develop a training program to provide language and cultural training, and develop a retention program to ensure that employees are happy and motivated to stay with the organization.
The HR leader would work closely with the management team to measure the effectiveness of the HR initiatives by tracking employee engagement surveys, measuring retention rates, and monitoring employee performance metrics. By aligning HR strategies with business objectives, the HR leader could help the organization achieve successful expansion into a new market while also developing a more diverse, skilled and engaged workforce that will support future growth and expansion.
The purpose of leadership is to provide a vision and direction for a group of individuals towards the achievement of a common goal. It involves inspiring, guiding, and motivating individuals to work together to achieve their full potential and maximize their collective performance
The functions of leadership are to:
Setting goals and priorities: A CEO sets strategic goals for their company, such as driving revenue growth, expanding into new markets, or increasing customer satisfaction.
Developing and implementing plans: A project manager creates a project plan that outlines the tasks, timelines, and resources required to complete a specific project.
Organizing resources: A team leader assigns tasks, delegates responsibilities, and allocates resources effectively to achieve the desired outcomes.
Inspiring and motivating team members: A coach inspires their team to win, motivates players during tough matches, and offers support when the team is struggling.
Communication: A leader communicates effectively with employees, stakeholders, and customers to ensure that everyone is on the same page.
Relationship-building: A leader builds relationships with key stakeholders, including partners, customers, and investors, to enhance collaboration and achieve common goals.
Monitor progress: A leader tracks performance metrics, reviews progress reports, and makes necessary adjustments or improvements to achieve goals.
Problem-solving: A leader identifies problems and makes decisions that contribute to achieving goals. For example, a manager might make a decision to resolve a conflict between two team members.
Here are some leadership theories and models that are widely recognized:
Trait theory: Theory that considers personality, social, physical, or intellectual traits to differentiate leaders from Non-Leader. This theory suggests that certain innate personality traits, such as intelligence, confidence, ambition, honesty, integrity, self-confidence, intelligence, high self-monitoring, job-relevant knowledge and make someone a good leader.
Leadership Traits: honesty and integrity, self-confidence, intelligence, high self-monitoring, job-relevant knowledge
Limitation of Trait Theory
No universal trait that predicts leadership in all situations.
Traits predict behavior better in “weak” than “strong” situations
Unclear evidence of the cause and effect of the relationship of leadership and traits. Example: does self-confidence create leadership or does success as a leader build self-confidence?
Traits do a better job at predicting the appearance of leadership than in actually distinguishing between effective and ineffective leaders.
Transformational leadership theory: This theory emphasizes the importance of a leader's ability to inspire their followers through a shared vision and a sense of purpose.
Situational leadership theory: This theory posits that different situations require different leadership styles and that effective leaders are able to adapt their style to suit the particular circumstances.
Path-goal theory: This theory suggests that a leader's role is to facilitate their follower's achievement of their goals, by removing obstacles and providing support.
Authentic leadership theory: This theory emphasizes the importance of a leader's willingness to be honest and transparent, build strong relationships with their followers, and act with integrity.
Servant leadership theory: This theory suggests that effective leaders place the needs of others, including employees, customers, and stakeholders, before their own self-interest and work to support the growth and well-being of those they lead.
Leader-member exchange theory: This theory emphasizes the importance of the relationship between a leader and their followers, and suggests that a high-quality exchange of communication and support leads to better outcomes and job satisfaction.
Each theory has its own set of strengths and limitations and can be applied depending on the situation and context in which leadership is needed. Successful leaders are able to understand these theories, evaluate their applicability, and apply the appropriate leadership style that suits the situation.
