East Asian and American Perspectives On Thinking Strategically: The Leopard and His Spots

Nancy K. Napier

Martha S. Albert

Interviews with 52 executives in the U.S., South Korea, Japan, Hong Kong and Taiwan, suggested three dimensions which appear to vary across countries. Environmental, economic and political factors, cultural traditions, history, and a society's philosophical assumptions appear to undergird its approach to strategic thinking.
