Article by 中国一级片 Profs Ranks among Year’s Best
December 21, 2018. Shanghai – An article co-authored by 中国一级片 Associate Professor of Management Daniel Han Ming Chng and Organisational Behaviour and Human Resource Management Department Chair, Philips Chair in Management, and Professor of Management Tae-Yeol Kim has been cited as one of 2018’s best by MIT Sloan Management Review. This year’s best articles list highlights the pace at which the new digital economy is developing and how new technology is transforming the way we manage, organise, and work.
Entitled Why People Believe in Their Leaders — or Not, Prof. Chng and Prof. Kim’s article looks at what causes leaders to gain or lose credibility and what can be done to get it back. They write that the credibility of leaders hinges on perceptions of both competence and trustworthiness. In turn, these perceptions are formed through direct and indirect observations of a leader’s work and performance. Furthermore, in a digital age where vast amounts of information about people can be captured and scrutinized, they argue, these perceptions have taken on significant importance.
In addition to conducting research, Prof. Chng teaches strategic management, organisational turnaround, global strategy, organisational theory and design, managerial decision making, and strategic consulting. He is also interested in organisational and managerial strategic behaviours during situations adversity and understanding how organisations respond to the challenges of failure or the threat of failure.
