Deconstructing the Successful Global Leader
To be successful in today’s environment, executives must be well-versed in communicating and operating within a variety of cultural contexts. Many global executives do their due diligence before
embarking on an international assignment. They attend cross-cultural and intercultural training with one objective—obtain a list of dos and don’ts to be as effective as possible in overcoming
future challenges.
But just because one knows the “right” actions does not mean that that person will apply them at the right times or in the right contexts. So, how can leaders garner this additional layer of information—the essential cultural, emotional, and social intelligences that act as guides for navigating unfamiliar business landscapes?
As our world continues to evolve, and the geographical boundaries become increasingly transparent, it is imperative that managers and executives understand the composition of a global leader. A global leader knows and accepts that an international assignment will be difficult, and is prepared to do the work required to rise to the occasion. Today’s global executive is both effective and efficient because she has a high level of cultural, emotional, and social intelligence. She is ready for the challenge.
