Trang 3Purpose
From observation of politics in Vietnam and the U.S in
2016, the group consider a question on the
relationship between the leadership style of the Party and people’s attention level to politics in Vietnam
This study aims to figure out influence level of the
Party’s leadership towards Vietnamese people’s
politics attention through analyzing characteristics of leadership styles
Trang 4Rationale
It is necessary to have a deep understanding about the Vietnam political system including its structure, decision-making mechanism and process and characteristics that provides fundamental base for students of the Master Program of Public Policy
Almost all previous studies and researches on Vietnamese political system and governance focus on analysis of organizational structure and operation mechanism rather than a study on leadership characteristics of the Vietnam Communist Party
The study provides a new angle of view of the leadership style of the Party and contributes a small part to analysis and researches on the Party leadership in particular and Vietnam political system in general
Trang 5Literature review
Review of Leadership:
Leadership is the process of influencing others to understand and agree about what needs to be done and how to do it, and the process of facilitating individual and collective efforts to accomplish shared objectives (Gary Yukl - 2013)
Leadership is influence That’s it Nothing more, nothing less (John C
Leadership is the influencing process of the leaders to the
followers to achieve certain objectives through making changes
Trang 6Literature review
Review of Leadership styles:
Autocratic leadership style is a style in which the leaders make
all decisions and provides commands what to do with closely supervision.
Democratic leadership amounts to giving group members
responsibility, improving the general abilities and leadership skills
of other group members, and assisting the group in its making process (Gastil - 1994)
decision- Thus, if a leader is not autocratic, group members will feel
attachment toward the group, and followers will therefore be
focused on the subsequent behavior that the group leader displays
Conversely, if a leader is seen as autocratic, subsequent sacrificial behavior is believed to influence followers’ reactions much less
Trang 7self-Literature review
Review of researches on leadership in Vietnam:
Almost all of them focus to study organizational structure, operation mechanism, the key fields of the State or the relationships among Vietnam and other countries rather than leadership characteristics of the Vietnam Communist Party.
In some researches, scholars seemed to define the leadership style of Vietnam leaders as autocratic without providing evidences

corrupt, …” - Russell heng Hiang Khng Leadership in Vietnam: Pressures for Reform and Their Limits Contemporary Southest Asia, Vol 15 (1993), pp 98-110
Trang 8Research questions
Our hypothesis:
The leadership style that is the manner of the leaders work and interact with the followers will determine the influence level of the leadership As a result, the democratic style tends to encourage people’s attention and participation while the autocratic style restricts them.
Two key questions:
What is leadership style of the Party?
How is the influence level of leadership in Viet Nam towards Vietnamese people via measuring the level of attention and participation of people towards political activities?

idea of developing multi-party political system, trias politica and civil society.
Trang 42 Leadership styles of Viet Nam and Western/American
countries have their own characteristics due to different
nature of political ideologies that is pursued in the countries and different patterns of eastern/western cultures
The requirement to constantly improving and enhancing the influence towards people are the same challenge for
leadership in both sides
No ideal solution is available for the problem of both systems and a more advanced political system is still in expectation,
to achieve stable and sustainable support by the people, both systems have to find their ways to eliminate autocracy and push up democracy in their leading styles
