This cross-cultural research proposal will examine the differences in servant leadership theory between the United States and the People Republic of China by comparing servant leadership attributes in these two cultures. All respondents will be middle managers in the banking industry of both countries that will comprise of 120 middle managers from the United States and 120 middle managers from the People Republic of China. This paper examines Patterson’s (2003) paradigm of servant leadership which includes seven characteristics of agapao love, altruism, humility, trust, vision, empowerment, and service. These seven servant leadership constructs will constitute the model variables for this research proposal. Five research hypotheses are designed for each of these countries and seven research questions would be used to answer to the cultural differences to each of these servant leadership constructs. Simple regression analysis will be used to test the research hypotheses and t-test analysis will be used to answer the research questions. In addition, this research proposal will highlight the salient socio-cultural differences between the United States and the People Republic of China and areas of convergence in their business practices.
