| Abstract: | This paper presents the results of a study on how Syrian-Orthodox (Suryoye) managers fill in their leadership role in the Netherlands, and to what extent this relates to the literature about cultural characteristics. Five interviews were conducted, and the findings demonstrate that Syrian Orthodox managers in Dutch businesses in the Netherlands carry out a Paternalistic leadership role. The results support Hall's theory in dimensions of cultural differences between countries, which is also in line with literature regarding the Suryoye cultural background, where studies have revealed that elements of paternalistic leadership have a strong influence on the Syrian Orthodox community. |
