As the world becomes more interconnected and cross-cultural contexts gain prominence, leaders must acknowledge the global dimensions of their role. The way we study leadership must be informed by processes that transcend borders and cultures. Similarly, our practice of leadership cannot disregard the cultural basis of our thoughts and actions. This book offers cutting-edge perspectives on the impact of globalization on the study and practice of Global Leadership.

To delve into these diverse aspects of Global Leadership, The Study and Practice of Global Leadership has been structured into three parts. In Part I, we define what is meant by globalization and its various facets, including political, economic, and social integration. In Part II, the authors examine the proliferation of Leadership Programs in schools across the globe, focusing on initiatives in China, Japan, New Zealand, and Australia. In Part III, the book highlights the challenges practitioners face when translating theoretical insights into practical action.

In keeping with the spirit of offering a wide range of applied topics, the reader will have the opportunity to explore how Global Leadership plays a role in multinational corporate settings, Sub-Saharan African countries, international development, immigration, and gender equality.
