Question Description

Leadership and Culture
There are examples of individualistic and collectivist cultures found in every group or community. However, each nation is typified by one or the other types of cultures (Hofstede, 1980). In the early 1990s, the United Kingdom (UK) debated over accepting the Euro as its currency, eventually opting out of adopting it as the common currency in 1992. In June of 2016 a new vote was taken regarding the option to exit the European Union spearheaded by the Prime Minister and his political party.
Preliminary steps:
Define the differences between Individualism vs Collectivism
Analyze how the UK is more of an individualistic culture versus a collectivist culture (Read Chapter 12 in your text, Box 12.3, Can You Be Comfortable with Conflict?) based on the present UK relationship with the European Union. (SEE ATTACHED)
Read “Managing and Moving” in your text on pages 266–268. (SEE ATTACHED)
Read about “Brexit” concerning the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom’s leadership involvement. (SEE ATTACHED)
Checklist:

  • Briefly summarize what happened.
  • Analyze the following:
    • The individualistic culture of the U.K. versus a collectivist culture and how that possibly influenced the “Brexit” vote.
    • How could the Prime Minister have more successfully communicated and led his nation to achieve his desired goal based on the individualistic culture?

Unit 8 Assignment 2: Managers are plentiful…we need some leaders!
Business is often conducted through international teams physically located in one spot to work together or brought together via conference calls and the internet for short-term tasks. Leading a team, especially an international one, can be a challenge.
For this Assignment, you should make sure to read about leadership and cross-cultural training, practice with leadership styles and Hofstede’s 5 cultural dimensions tutorial in the Learning Activities. Besides your chapter reading, you can consult the Internet to assist you in completing this Assignment.
Assignment:
Scenario:
The KAPResources Consulting firm, has asked two relocated U.S. employees (1 female and 1 male expatriate) along with two newly hired male Spanish employees and the female French HR Director to assemble themselves as a team under the leadership of Carla Baskil (Puerto Rico office). Initially, Carla will meet with her team in person and then, on an ongoing basis, meet via video conferencing. This small team of five in Spain will, once interconnected as a team, be tasked with creating the larger office team with a total of 75 employees. Carla knows that creating this initial team will help the larger group of employees and their spouses acculturate to the company and the country.
You, in the role of Carla, are tasked with leading this small team of five to make them feel more interconnected. This will prepare them to better guide the larger team of 70 additional employees to feel more like a team, thus making them more productive and content in their employment.
An idea occurs to you to have a dinner party where everyone brings their spouse for a total of 11 dinner guests (which includes you).
Read the following article on cross-cultural training (Kassar, Rouhana, & Lythreatis, 2015), and then think of how it might apply to the scenario and checklist items below.
Checklist:

  • Propose a plan for the dinner event for employees and spouses to meet, interact, and feel more interconnected.
  • How might you as Carla motivate the team and spouses to better interconnect and break the cultural barriers?
  • What activities at the dinner event might enhance the adaptation process?
  • Explain how you will overcome the cultural challenges involved.

Essay: Leadership Success

Length: 2500 words (+/-10%)
Submission method options: Alternative submission method
Task
back to top
Jim Collins stated that a company does not go from good to great overnight but by relentlessly pushing a giant heavy flywheel in one direction, building momentum until a point of breakthrough. The power of momentum is evident in the Harvard Business Review’s (HBR 2017) ranking of the world’s best CEO’s. Judged solely on the basis of financial performance the top leader would be Amazon’s founder Jeff Bezos. However the rankings are now based on not just financial but also on environmental, social and governance (ESG) metrics. This resulted in Bezos coming in at number 71.  According to the HBR researchers, the use of ESG information is driven by financial rather than ethical motives.

  1. In today’s turbulent world, how should the success of CEOs be evaluated?
  2. What are the challenges of focusing on just financial metrics to the long term success of organisations?
  3. What are the challenges leaders face in balancing financial and ESG performance metrics? Drawing on current leadership research (in the last 5 years) discuss how leaders should  address these challenges.

Use examples of three current CEOs (leaders), to support your answers to questions 1, 2 and 3. Critically evaluate how each leader’s practice of leadership impacts the success of their organisation. You can use a different example for each of the questions above or use the three examples across the questions.
Use relevant theories and concepts from across the subject but especially from weeks 6 to 9 in addressing this task
A minimum of 10 academic/professional references must be used
Rationale
