INTRODUCTION
Leaders and management play critical roles in the success and growth of any business.
Their key responsibilities include leading, directing, and inspiring personnel to achieve
company goals. This report has helped me grasp the many parts of leadership and
management, as well as the theories used at Vietcombank. Furthermore, the contrasts
in the company's culture are discussed and thoroughly examined in this activity.
Analyzing theories allows me to obtain a better grasp of the effects of various
approaches to leadership and management.
MAJOR FINDINGS
A. The different theories of leadership and theoties of managemant in connection
to management operations.
b. Leadership theories
The leadership trait model is based on the traits of many successful and failed leaders
and is used to predict leadership effectiveness. The resulting lists of attributes are then
compared to those of potential leaders in order to determine their chances of success or
failure (Northouse, P., 2018).
Mr. Vu Viet Ngoan, General Director of VCB, was the only person in Vietnam to
obtain the accolade "Typical Asian Bank Leader" prior to the equitization. 2005
because, during his leadership, VCB has grown significantly and established a
distinguished corporate culture.
What leaders do in connection to completing tasks and sustaining the efforts of those
executing the tasks can be used to define leadership behavior. The behavioral approach
is only concerned with what leaders do and how they act (Burke, C. S., Stagl, K. C.,
Klein, C., Goodwin, G. F., Salas, E., & Halpin, S. M., 2006).
The effectiveness of a leader is determined by satisfying three areas of need within a
work group (Northouse, P., 2018). Along with the process of equitization and
restructuring, Vietcombank has undertaken certain leadership changes:
Management theories are put into practice to increase corporate efficiency, service
quality, and employee engagement. As a result, few firms utilize a single strategy or
concept when implementing workplace strategies: Depending on the nature of the
workplace, purpose, and personnel, they frequently employ a combination of many
ideas.
II. Management theories
Mr. Dung believes that the previous method is excessively sluggish and difficult. He
and Vietcombank's personnel achieved great progress in the digitization of banking
activities and organizational restructuring with the assistance of the consultant
company.
Mr. Dung may be seen strolling the corridors of Vietcombank, speaking with staff at
all levels and in all divisions. Above all, he listened to what staff had to say about what
needed to be done. The leaders of Vietcombank are consistently listening and caring
about their staff. In addition, Vietcombank provides a number of staff incentives as
well as sound financial rules.
Mr. Dao Minh Tuan, Deputy General Director and Chairman of Vietcombank's Trade
Union, stated at a recent meeting of Vietcombank workers in 2020 that Vietcombank
has created a system of financial and non-financial incentive systems. key concern for
workers; the payment structure in terms of salary, insurance, and employee income is
the most generous among Vietnamese credit institutions and is constantly being
enhanced (Nhung Kim Dau Thi, 2021). Notably, the wage and actual income of
Vietcombank workers climbed by approximately 200 percent in 2019 compared to
2015, reaching 105 percent in 2018. With the best employee support and treatment
policies. Since 2015, Vietcombank has consistently ranked among the Top 10 firms in
Vietnam with the greatest working environment (Van Cam, 2020).
I. Leadership style
While there is a substantial corpus of study addressing distinct leadership styles, there
is a surprising lack of research analyzing the concept of a leadership "style" (Gandolfi
& Stone, 2016). It is virtually a given that there is universal awareness and agreement
on what a leadership style is, which is incorrect and does not serve the larger
conversation on leadership effectively. Such ambiguity may contribute to the
significantly diverse perspectives on leadership (Gandolfi et al., 2017). In the views of
followers, leadership effectiveness is intimately related to the leader being focused,
able to inspire, and prioritize needs, which provides a sense of safety and serenity for
followers (McDermott, Kidney, & Flood, 2011).
The leader splits his management power, solicits subordinates' perspectives, and
includes them in decision making. As a result, all workers agree on and support
Vietcombank's strategic goals. The leaders of Vietcombank follow three norms of
conduct:
Employee morale, productivity, decision-making speed, and KPIs are all affected by
leadership style. Successful leaders thoroughly examine problems, assess subordinates'
skill levels, explore alternatives, and make educated decisions. An effective leader
leaves a lasting impression by using the most appropriate leadership style for the
occasion (Bolden, R., 2004). When leaders utilize the democratic leadership style, they
welcome feedback from their subordinates before making important choices. They
welcome input and recommendations from employees at all levels of the organization.
This process takes time, so while employees may feel more empowered, choices might
take a long time. Leaders that utilize the laissez-faire leadership style cede all authority
to their subordinates. When a team has a lot of expertise, its members can make their
own judgments swiftly, which works out nicely. When a team lacks the necessary
skills and information to make sound judgments, pandemonium typically ensues.
According to Vietcombank culture handbook and Tinh Thi Nguyen (2014), the
cultural character of Vietcombank may be summed up in five main values:
