Managerial Perceptions of Leadership in Sri Lanka: Good Management and Leadership Excellence as Foundation for Sustainable Leadership Capacity Building in Post-Civil War Sri Lanka
Publisher: MDPI AG
Date: 11-02-2020
DOI: 10.3390/SU12041307
Abstract: In this paper, we examine cultural values that influence the leadership perceptions from a s le of 1140 managers in Sri Lankan organizations. Multivariate analysis such as regression, factor analysis and structural equation modeling was employed to explain leadership excellence. Trust and sustainability were found to be the most important ethical leadership characteristics with three distinct leadership perspectives—nurtured organization, good management and excellent leadership. Implications of this study suggest that trust, sustainability and loyalty should be emulated within a nurtured organization, and good management practice with less emphasis on morality should be emulated for developing HR capacity in Sri Lanka.

Exploring Ethical Business in Central Europe: Leaders’ Values and Perspectives on Good Practices
Publisher: MDPI AG
Date: 16-01-2020
DOI: 10.3390/SU12020670
Abstract: Weaknesses in the institutional environment of Central Europe challenge the sustainability of economic development. Institutional theory stipulates that institutions drive economic development, and institutions are configured by in idual values and practices. The World Governance Indicators, the Corruption Perception Index, and the Doing Business Indicators indicate weaknesses in the institutional environments of the Visegrád countries. This paper explores the micro level perspective of institutions, focusing on values and practices, in terms of leadership and ethics. A survey of 868 private and public sector managers from Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia provides evidence that leadership practices and ethical values are congruent, suggesting a positive influence on the institutional environment. The results also provide evidence for the presence of the gap, spanning between the micro and the macro level factors affecting sustainable economic development. These results imply that a bottom-up view of sustainable economic development is more suitable to the Central European context, and promotion of sustainable economic development needs to focus on the micro level factors.
