Abstract: The current study investigates the relationship between performance-based organisational culture (i.e., innovation-oriented culture, outcome-oriented culture, and detail-oriented culture) and three dimensions of shared leadership (i.e., collective-achievement leadership, mutual-engagement leadership, and cohesive-support leadership). Multiple regression results based on the data obtained from 12 Chinese firms demonstrated that innovation-oriented culture was significantly related to collective-achievement leadership and cohesive-support leadership; outcome-oriented culture was significantly related to mutual-engagement leadership and cohesive-support leadership; and attention to detail was significantly related to mutual-engagement leadership. It was also hypothesised that there would be moderating effects of firm ownership and location in Chinese markets. However, the moderating effects were not as strong as expected. The results provide novel insights into theories and practise of shared leadership and organisational culture in China.
