International Journal of Educational Leadership Preparation, v7 n2 Sum 2012
For more than 2000 years, Confucian teaching has had tremendous influence on the history, politics, economy, and culture of East Asian countries and regions. Despite the rapid growth in gross domestic product (GDP), people's standard of living, and economic advancements, Confucian Asia continues to adhere to the Confucian cultural values that they have embraced for hundreds of years. The shared Confucian cultural values and traditions have played an important role in the formation and development of East Asian leadership practices. In this chapter, we examine the Confucian-based cultural values and East Asian leadership practices. Based on Confucian traditions and East Asian leadership practices, leadership model emerged. This model may be applicable in other cultural contexts. (Contains 1 figure.)
