5. Dari budaya cina Confucianism and leadership The Confucian style of leadership involves the ruler remaining in the palace and observing the rites of his office. By applying himself to these rites, virtue would emanate from the palace and out into the rest of the country, as the influence of virtue spreads. The Master said, ‘If a man is able to govern a state by observing the rites and showing deference, what difficulties will he have in public life? If he is unable to govern a state by observing the rites and showing deference, what good are the rites to him?’ In fact Confucius envisaged that you don’t necessarily even need to have a ruler – as people see the value of observing their obligations in the li relationships, virtue will surely take over. The Master said, ‘Barbarian tribes with their rulers are inferior to Chinese states without them.’ The Master wanted to settle amongst the Nine Barbarian Tribes of the east. Someone said, ‘But could you put up with their uncouth ways?’ The Master said, ‘Once a gentleman settles amongst them, what uncouthness will there be?’

6. The reason government is not so central is because the government shouldn’t need to create and enforce external rules, because it is better anyway for people to be kept in check by an internalised sense of shame when they do not observe what is required in the li relationships. The Master said, ‘Guide them by edicts, keep them in line with punishments, and the common people will stay out of trouble but will have no sense of shame. Guide them by virtue, keep them in line with the rites, and they will, besides having a sense of shame, reform themselves.’ In reality, no ruler ever embodied the Confucian ideal of rule by virtue and observance of rites alone. The Qin dynasty rejected Confucianism and adopted Legalism as its policy. But even when they were overthrown by the Han who adopted Confucianism as the state orthodoxy, Han rulers (and those of subsequent dynasties) still relied on punishment and reward to keep the empire in check! And today, people don’t really follow Confucian ideals when it comes to exercising leadership in business say, or in a church setting. However, Confucianism does strongly influence other aspects of the leadership task…
