ABSTRACT
Guided by the ternary leadership theory from the perspective of social psychology, this paper explores the impacts of authoritarian, benevolent, and moral leadership on the top design of the Grand Canal of China in terms of its water management practice, while providing reference for resolving the “Matteo Ricci Puzzle”. The research findings are threefold: first, authoritarian as it is, the central government of China formulates relevant laws and regulations to provide legal system insurance for the construction of the Grand Canal Cultural Belt, thus providing the blueprint for constructing the “bright cultural belt, green ecological belt and colorful tourism belt of the Grand Canal”. Second, led by the Central Government, sticking to benevolent and moral leadership, China advocates scientific water management concepts and methods, and gives long-term and comprehensive care to the well-being of the people along the banks of the Grand Canal. Finally, the top-level design of the Grand Canal of China is based on the ternary leadership theory rooted in social psychology and has formulated a set of properly-scheduled, reasonably-coordinated, and flexibly-operated management system for the fundamental interests of the people and long-term goals of the country.
