The book is one of the first to focus on responsible leadership in
the contemporary Asian century context. It adopts a unique context
driven social innovation based responsible leadership approach to
explain how context can impact and shape the theory and practice of
responsible leadership. This unique work will strongly appeal to a
broad spectrum of researchers and scholars across disciplines with
a particular interest in the interplay between leadership,
responsibility and ethics. As Asia's influence on the global
economy continues to grow in the Asian Century, this book offers a
culturally integrated view of how the shift in economic power to
Asia and the rising new global economic order can influence the
theory and practice of responsible leadership. The book focuses
particularly on the Asian century opportunities and challenges as a
strong contextual factor that shapes the 'responsibility' of
responsible leadership. The scholarly literature on the topic, the
case studies developed through interviews and secondary data, and
author's corporate experiences in the Asia-Pacific region in
leading organisations are key sources for the book's assertions. It
fills an important gap in the literature on how Asian cultural
factors might influence the predominantly Western developed
responsible leadership theory and practice. This book covers key
topics including the moral basis for responsibility, theory and
practice of responsible leadership, Asian challenges to responsible
leadership, and socially innovative responsible leadership.
"Fernando's book provides a fresh and novel perspective on how
evolutionary changes in economic power between Asia and the rest of
the world undoubtedly will affect the practice of responsible
leadership. He examines varying views on responsible leadership
across cultures, demonstrating how Asian and Western leadership
styles have evolved as our economy continues to become more
globally integrated." Prof. Laura Pincus Hartman Director, Susilo
Institute for Ethics in the Global Economy Boston University,
Questrom School of Business, Boston, USA "There is little doubt
that this is the Asian Century and that economic and political
influences from the east will increase. But so too may cultural,
ethical and even religious influences. It is therefore important
that researchers understand these significant changes. In this book
Mario Fernando gives us an insight into what this means for
responsible leadership. It is primarily an excellent work of
scholarship, written for academics who teach and research in this
area by someone who knows Asian business and culture from the
inside. But it will also reward careful study by practicing leaders
and those who are the potential leaders of the future." Professor
of Business Ethics, Geoff Moore Durham Business School Durham
