Leadership is like fine wine: It is meant to be shared, globally

Abstract

The overwhelming majority of leadership theory and research has been developed in North America. Having said that, it cannot be overstated that we are living in an ever more tightly connected global economy. Appropriately, scholars have been giving more attention to the global context of leadership, particularly focusing on the rise of team-based structures, the need for intra-organizational cooperation across distance, a widening scope of competition, and managing diversity and cultural perspectives.
