It's Not What a Leader Does, It's What You Make of It: Yusuf Has Hacib

Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: Expatriate managers experience many difficulties that are due to psychological differences between home and foreign country. Especially the behaviour that is expected from managers and the way they are perceived varies across cultures. Perception is determined by the traits that are inferred to a manager. In this thesis it is argued that implicit personality theories and leadership prototypes are culturally endorsed and vary between Germany and Britain. Their variation yields differences in trait inference. Furthermore, a connection between implicit personality theories and leadership prototypes is hypothesised. A questionnaire assessed implicit personality theories, leadership prototypes, and trait inference in management situations in Germany (N= 82) and Great Britain (N= 76). Results indicate that Germans had a more incremental theory of personality (i.e., they regard personality as more malleable) and a lower tendency to infer traits than Britons. Leadership prototypes had no effect on trait inference, but were related to implicit personality theory: People with an incremental theory of personality emphasised leadership behaviour associated with change. Additionally the semantic structure of leadership prototypes of German and British expatriate managers was analysed, revealing high consistency with the national average prototypes. Implications for cross-cultural research on person perception, leadership, and for expatriate managers in Germany and Britain are discussed. Zusammenfassung: Führungskräfte, die ins Ausland entsendet werden, erfahren viele Schwierigkeiten, die auf psychologische Unterschiede zwischen Heimat- und Entsendungsland zurückzuführen sind. Insbesondere das Verhalten, das von Managern erwartet wird, und die Art, wie sie wahrgenommen werden, variiert über die Kulturen hinweg. Die Wahrnehmung ist vor allem dadurch bestimmt, welche Eigenschaften einem Manager zugeschrieben werden. In dieser Arbeit wird argumentiert, dass implizite Persönlichkeitstheorien und Führungsprototypen kulturgebunden sind und zwischen Deutschland und England variieren. Diese Variation führt zu Unterschieden in der Zuschreibung von Eigenschaften. Des weiteren wird ein Zusammenhang zwischen impliziten Persönlichkeitstheorien und Führungsprototypen postuliert. Mit einem Fragebogen wurden von 82 deutschen und 76 englischen Teilnehmern die impliziten Persönlichkeitstheorien, Führungsprototypen und Eigenschaftszuschreibungen in [...]
