Master's Thesis from the year 2024 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,7, AKAD University of Applied Sciences Stuttgart (AKAD University), language: English, abstract: Since the second half of the 20th century, various studies and approaches of comparative culture research and comparative culture leadership research have been increasingly conducted to further explore the multifaceted relationships between human behavior, social culture and leadership behavior. Examples from recent years show that internationally operating companies in particular need managers who demonstrate a high level of intercultural competence in order to do justice to the company's performance and ensure their own professional success. The focus of this thesis is on the avoidance of intercultural leadership problems in the perception of the respective society on good leadership practices between Germany and Japan. Applying on the approaches of Edward T. Hall and Geert Hofstede in general and the results of the GLOBE (Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness) studies, behaviors are identified that give German managers an indication of what kind of leadership is likely to be considered effective in terms of good leadership in Japanese society. As a solution approach an intercultural training program is designed and presented. Following successful implementation, companies can train their managers in the concept of good leadership in Japan. In this way, intercultural leadership problems can be avoided from the outset and the company can be protected from financial damage and loss of reputation.
