Why is it important?
The results identify 10 dimensions of entrepreneurial leadership, including resilience, which has yet to be highlighted in previous related research. Resilience, in particular, is notably present among Ciputra Group leaders. Additionally, the results reveal five influences of Ciputra in entrepreneurial leadership dimensions on the behavior of leaders who interact directly with him. This research offers practical insights, especially for founders and family business leaders, on how to develop strong, lasting leadership that can guide their organizations toward sustainability and long-term success.
Perspectives
Writing this article was a meaningful experience as it allowed me to reflect on the leadership legacy of the late Ciputra, a figure I deeply respect. This research goes beyond theory—it captures how values like resilience and vision can shape an entire organization. Hearing directly from leaders who worked closely with him reminded me that true leadership is not just about strategy, but about personal character and lasting influence. I hope this article inspires others to see leadership as something that can be lived, passed on, and used to build sustainable organizations.
