Mini Track: Cross-Cultural and Ethical Issues in Leadership
Mini Track Chair: Dr. John Politis, Charles Darwin University, Australia..
It has become imperative for successful leaders to be aware of the cultural differences that influence
business practices. Yet cultural values and practices could affect the ethical principles of leadership.
Cultural values also could shape the expectations that followers have of their leader. In certain
cultures the leader might be expected to be ethical and ineffective or be unethical and effective. It is
therefore important to explore ethical leadership across different cultures.
To increase knowledge in the field of cultural behaviours and identify the effectiveness of ethical
leadership across different cultures scholarly and practical context papers are invited to this mini
track aimed at debating, but not limited to, the following questions:
• What is ethical leadership? How is it
conceptualised and defined across cultures?
• How does ethical leadership differ across
cultures?
• Can culture shape leader’s role in determining
their organisation’s ethical climate?
• Do ethical leaders demonstrate the same
ethical awareness across cultures?
• Do the leadership qualities of coaching,
teamwork and empowering employees
enhance appropriateness or
inappropriateness of behaviour across
cultures?
•
•
•
•
•
Can ethical accountability be managed
and/or spread across cultures?
What is the impact of the Big Five
personality traits on ethical leadership
across cultures?
Is social obligation the heart of ethical
leadership across different cultures?
What are the similarities and differences
between ethical leadership across
cultures?
How does the nature and structure of
technology impact ethical leadership
across cultures?
