Abstract

In this paper, we explore paternalism as the main cultural framework within which excellence in managerial leadership operates in organizations in the Philippines. Factor analysis, regression and structural modelling are employed to explain managerial leadership excellence in the Philippines. Perceptions from 258 Filipino managers highlight paternalistic leadership as a unique mixture of Confucian and Catholic values. Pastoral focus is an important cultural dimension through which Environment focus and Work practices influences the Personal qualities. Moral obligations are important since they mediate between Pastoral focus and managerial response to Organizational demands but unimportant as direct influence on excellent leader.
