“…Despite this, there remains a dearth of research on social interactions and relations with biculturals (Gutierrez, 2018) in organizations. The way bicultural individuals interact may vary from non‐biculturals due to their different backgrounds (Chiou, 2014). Existing studies regarding biculturals in the workplace mostly focus on skills related to workplace performance and well‐being, rather than leadership (Barker, 2017; Chiou, 2014; Racine, 2016; Zheng et al, 2020).…”

“…The merging of two cultures through biculturalism happens either through globalization or immigration (Chiou, 2014). Globalization as a form of colonialism describes instances where countries in “the Global North export their consumerist and capitalist culture abroad” (Galbraith, 2002 as cited in p. 9 of Lodigiani, 2020), particularly to developing countries in the Global South (Lodigiani, 2020).…”

On the other hand, biculturalism via immigration occurs when individuals of a specific culture relocate to a country with a different culture, an example of which can be observed among Asian Americans (Chiou, 2014).…”

Using the lens of interpretative phenomenological analysis, this study explored the leadership experiences of bicultural business leaders in the Philippines. Semistructured interviews were conducted among 16 leaders in family‐owned, small and medium‐sized enterprises in the Philippines who are ethnically Chinese and have Filipino nationality. Findings focused on salient expressions of biculturalism in leadership, bicultural leadership challenges, and advantages. Most of the participants experienced fluidity in their expressions of Filipino and Chinese identities and how these manifest in the workplace. Challenges shared pertain to generational factors as participants assumed leadership roles through kinship, as well as relational challenges reflective of cultural nuances. The leaders view their being bicultural as having the “best of both worlds” as they have greater access to cultural information and a more holistic view of which values and norms to use in their leadership roles and in various social interactions. Fluency in communicating in Chinese and Filipino was perceived to enable effective interactions and facilitate trust building with their customers, employees, and suppliers. Implications focused on the need to consider biculturalism in leadership development programmes in educational institutions and organizations, especially with increasing bi/multiculturalism in workplaces.
