Sammendrag
This paper explores if, and how, Chinese managers perceive Western

theories of leadership and leadership development as useful in their

business environment. Based on a text analysis approach analyzing term

papers of 171 MBA students, this study finds that virtuous leadership is

valued the most, whereas authoritarian leadership is valued the least.

The respondents are oriented both towards traditional Chinese

philosophy and Western leadership theories, and predominantly view

leadership development as a necessary contribution to the improvement

of Chinese organizations. Concerning the identification and assessment

of leadership potential, Western techniques are predominant; sometimes

with controversial effects. The study concludes that leadership

development techniques need to be adapted to the national context and

recommends the role of espoused leadership in cross-cultural MBA

classes for future research.
