Abstract

In this paper, we examine the role played by compassion in leadership in intercultural situations. Focusing on the growing and important economic context of Indo‐Japanese business, we develop a model that identifies contingent factors that affect Japanese leaders' expressions of compassion in intercultural organizational contexts. We engage with the spiritual capital construct and analyse leaders' lived experiences leading to a novel extension of the well‐established Nested Spheres Model of Culture. By adopting an inductivist and social constructivist approach, semistructured interviews with Japanese business leaders operating in India are employed to generate data. The empirical data show how changes in time and place cause deeply embedded cultural values (such as compassion) to surface and become more explicit in leadership. The study also underlines the need to explore the wider spatial, temporal, and economic contingencies that affect both the dynamics of compassion in “intercultural” business situations and spiritual leadership in intercultural contexts.
跨文化组织环境中领导力的同情表达:印度的日本领导人
在本文中,我们研究了在跨文化环境中,同情心在领导力中所扮演的角色。我们以印度-日本商业这一日益增长的重要经济环境为重点,建立了一个模型,确定了影响日本领导者在跨文化组织环境中表达同情心的偶然因素。我们参与了精神资本的构建,并分析了领导者的生活经历,从而对成熟的嵌套文化圈模型进行了新颖的扩展。通过采用归纳主义和社会建构主义方法,我们对在印度开展业务的日本企业领导人进行了半结构式访谈,从而获得了相关数据。实证数据显示了时间和地点的变化如何导致根深蒂固的文化价值观(如同情心)浮出水面,并在领导力中变得更加明确。这项研究还强调,有必要探索影响 "跨文化 "商业环境中同情心的动态以及跨文化环境中精神领导力的更广泛的空间、时间和经济偶然性。
