| Abstract: | Due to the current transformation of Central Eastern European (CEE) economies, not very much is known about managerial behaviour during that era. With a view of increasing such an understanding, this paper reports some observations on characteristics of the leadership styles of managers in CEE as experienced by Finnish expatriates. The emerging changes in these styles are also discussed. By reviewing relevant writings and studies, working hypotheses about expected differences between Finnish and CEE managers are formulated. Differences were identified and it was found that typical leadership styles among managers share certain common characteristics in three CEE countries but that the styles have already started to change. In conclusion, the implications of the findings for Western companies and for expatriate managers are discussed. |
