Same Kentucky Chicken, Different Taste: Cross-cultural Leadership Studies at KFC in BeijingFeng, Li 08 July 1998 (has links)
This study is designed to explore a three dimensional Chinese leadership behavior model - Initiation, Consideration, and Guanxi. The Initiation-Consideration model has dominated leadership behavior research in Western literature (e.g., Yukl 1994), whereas this study recognizes that Guanxi behavior is an important concept in Chinese values and that it should be employed to develop a model of Chinese leadership behavior. This study also examines whether Guanxi is the most frequently exhibited leadership behavior, as perceived by Chinese employees, and how this type of leadership behavior, along with Initiation and Consideration, contributes to leadership effectiveness within the Chinese culture.Data is collected from 166 subordinates at 15 KFC restaurants in Beijing. The empirical data collected demonstrates that Initiation, Consideration, and Guanxi are not distinctive leadership behaviors. Instead, they are highly correlated with each other. Other main findings related to the study's hypotheses are: 1) among Initiation, Consideration, and Guanxi, Initiation is the most frequently used leadership behavior, as perceived by subordinates at those restaurants; and 2) subordinates perceive that all these three forms of leadership behavior are positively related to leadership effectiveness. However, this thesis does not have enough confidence to make any conclusion based on the above findings because of the sample's response bias and a multicollinearity problem in the empirical data. / Master of Science

Leadership And Satisfaction In Soccer: Examination Of Congruence And PlayersCakioslu, Asli 01 January 2003 (has links) (PDF)
The main purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among
preferred and perceived leadership, their congruence and satisfaction with
leadership. The second purpose was to investigate the differences among the
offensive, the defensive and the mid-field players of soccer teams in preferred
leadership, perceived leadership and satisfaction with leadership. The five leader
behaviors which were measured were: training and instruction, social support,
positive feedback, democratic behavior, and autocratic behavior. The four aspects
of leadership satisfaction, which were measured, were: individual performance
satisfaction, team performance satisfaction, training and instruction satisfaction, and
personal treatment satisfaction.
The subjects of the study were 138 male university soccer players 7 of 9
universities in Ankara Region of Turkey. The athletes consisted of 38 offensive
players, 49 defensive players, and 51 mid-field players. Data was collected through
Leadership Scale for Sport (LSS) preference version and perception version, and
Athlete Satisfaction Questionnaire (ASQ).
The study employed hierarchical regression procedures to test the congruence
hypothesis derived from the multidimensional model of leadership. Results
indicated athlete satisfaction was not dependent on the congruence between
preferred and perceived leadership behavior. Additionally, results showed that there
were no differences among the offensive, defensive, and mid-field players in
preferred leadership, perceived leadership, and satisfaction with leadership.
Further research is needed with the multidimensional theory of leadership in
varying sport groups and with greater number of participants to identify other
situational and behavioral factors associated with athletic performance.

The study discusses the organization structure, the characteristics of missions and the number of people in troops, the difference between the leadership behavior between the commanding officers.
The study tries to find a suitable leadership behavior which can be served as a reference for commanding officers in different troops in the future.
The study has found the following phenomenon:
1. To lead a huge organization which has many people and facilities and units, the most important job is to know how to control. To lead an organization which has less people and it has a professional unit, the most important job is to plan and to know how to communicate to the subordinates.

3. Due to different units, some commanding officers have too much work, some have less work. Some can not fully use his talents. Responsibility and power do not match.
