#149 What the Chinese want in a leader with Morry Morgan
If you had to brainstorm a list of the qualities you believe to be most sought after in leadership by Chinese employees, what would you include? How about responsible? Motivational? Caring? Powerful? How might you rank them? I sat with Morry Morgan, co-founder of ClarkMorgan, and learned about a fascinating survey they conducted all around China to dig to the foundation of this question: What qualities are most valued in leadership in China? The answers may surprise you! Tune in to hear the top 10 list and see how it compares to the same question asked of Australian leaders.
The research is clear—Chinese employees need their leaders to be caring, compassionate and powerful all at the same time.
