Work and Life Under One Roof: A Role-Based Resource Perspective on Benevolent Leadership and Work-Family Conflict
Shifts in work patterns have intensified interest in work-family conflict, highlighting the critical role of supervisors’ leadership behaviors in shaping such tension. Unlike Western leadership, which emphasizes job-related support, Chinese benevolent leadership provides holistic care across both work and personal domains, potentially offering distinctive benefits. Drawing on culture and leadership perspective, this study examines how the two dim…

Affective Trust in Chinese Leaders: Linking Paternalistic Leadership to Employee Performance
Adopting the theoretical framework of social exchange, the authors used the two dominant Confucian values—hierarchy and relationalism—to theorize the mediating role of affective trust in the relationship between paternalistic leadership and employee in-role and extra-role performance in the Chinese organizational context. Data from 601 supervisor–subordinate dyads of 27 companies in a Taiwanese conglomerate revealed that while the benevolence and…
Paternalistic Leadership in Four East Asian Societies: Generalizability and Cultural Differences of the Triad Model
Paternalistic leadership has been claimed to be one dominant leadership style in Asia. However, research failed to assess its comparability and applicability across East Asian contexts. The triad model of paternalistic leadership entails elements of authoritarian, benevolent, and moral character leadership. This article investigates the triad model of paternalistic leadership in mainland China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. Paternalistic leader…

Individualism-collectivism as Descriptive Norms: Development of a Subjective Norm Approach to Culture Measurement
The development and validation of a new instrument for measuring the descriptive norms related to individualism-collectivism (IC) is presented. IC is conceptualized as a group- specific unidimensional cultural construct with four defining attributes (Triandis, 1995). Three studies are reported showing the dimensionality and validities at individual and cultural levels across samples from 11 cultures. The new instrument has good statistical proper…
Shared work values and team member effectiveness: The mediation of trustfulness and trustworthiness
Using a sample of 411 members and their respective leaders from 72 Taiwanese corporate teams, we conducted a cross-level study and found that 1) teammates' shared work values were positively related to team member performance and satisfaction with cooperation; 2) trustworthiness, or how a member was trusted by his or her teammates, mediated the relationship between shared work values and team member performance; and 3) trustfulness, or how a memb…
A Cultural Analysis of Paternalistic Leadership in Chinese Organizations
Paternalistic leadership, which combines strong discipline and authority with fatherly benevolence and moral integrity couched in a ‘personalistic’ atmosphere, has been found to be prevalent in overseas Chinese family businesses (CFBs). After critically reviewing the extant literature, we identify three constituent elements of paternalistic leadership (PL): authoritarianism, benevolence and moral leadership. We trace the deep cultural roots of ea…
The Influence of Relational Demography and Guanxi: The Chinese Case
Two studies were conducted to investigate the indigenous concept of guanxi and its applications in the Chinese context. Guanxi refers to the existence of direct particularistic ties between an individual and others. We relate the concept to the idea of relational demography, which refers to similarities or differences between an individual and others on such factors as age, gender, race, religion, education, and occupation. The two studies focuse…
Effects of Physical Attractiveness, Sex, and Type of Crime on Mock Juror Decisions: A Replication with Chinese Students
A study previously conducted with American college students was replicated with Chinese college students. The Chinese subjects read a description of either a burglary or a swindle where the defendant was either male or female, physically attractive or unattractive, and Chinese or American. A biographical sketch and a photograph of the defendant were attached to the description of the crime. Subjects were asked to indicate the length of sentence a…
