Conference 2011, Malaysia
Call for Papers
1st Academic International Conference ?Exploring Leadership &
Learning Theories in Asia ? (ELLTA)
Hosted by the Asia-Europe Institute, University of Malaya, Malaysia
February 15-18, 2011
The core emphasis of the conference is on understanding Asian
perspectives on leadership and learning.
Leadership and learning, like various other concepts, are often
viewed/ treated as global. As a response and reaction to the
predominant presence of social theories rooted in the West, there
is a growing recognition of and movement towards understanding
theories through the wide range of diverse contextual and cultural
perspectives available in the East.
The significant role of culture is highlighted to an extent that
some Asian researchers suggest that effective leadership in one
culture may be counterproductive in another. It is in this
connection that the conference is strategically an important
initiative, as it aims at contributing to the knowledge on
leadership and learning in Asia .
Thus, the questions that the conference intends to address are:
a.. Are the west-inspired theories on leadership and learning
relevant for Asia in general and different contexts in Asia in
particular?
a.. Is there a need to develop theories specific for Asia in
general and different contexts in Asia in particular?
a.. Are there existing theories on leadership and learning with
an Asian origin, which have not received much attention or have
not been acknowledged so far?
