Editorial Reviews

This series seeks to advance the definition, conceptualization, and understanding of global leadership processes and the development of global leaders. This volume considers the ethical domain of global leadership, global leadership through the lens of extant leadership theory, global leadership and cognition, and the practitioners' corner. The topics include understanding multicultural individual as ethical global leader, global followership: the launch of the scholarly journey, collective global leadership in self-managed multicultural teams: the role of team goal orientation, cosmopolitanism in a globalized world: an interdisciplinary perspective, and global talent: beyond outsourcing.

Annotation

Exploring global leadership in their field, business scholars consider such aspects as case studies of global leadership: expert cognition in the domain of large-scale global change, connecting across cultures: an empirical examination of multicultural individuals as global leaders, self-acceptance and community transcendence: reflections on global leadership from an irrepressible scholar-teacher, translating theory into practice: developing global leaders through undergraduate experience education, and the global leadership advancement center: developing global leadership expertise in a university setting.

One of the goals of the series is to combine the fields of traditional leadership studies and global leadership studies. This volume includes a special section on university global leadership development, which discusses such topics as whether global leadership can be taught online, three approaches to teaching global leadership in modern business schools, and the global leadership field and doctoral education: advancing the discipline through a targeted curriculum. Other studies present empirical findings on such matters as leadership in the global context: bibliometric and thematic patterns of an evolving field, and unpacking the complexities of a global mindset: a multi-lens analysis.

"Global leaders must be adaptable. You cannot lead across economic, political, legal, and cultural environments without cognitive and emotional plasticity. But . . . plasticity doesn’t mean making things up as you go along. That is ‘flying blind’, not leadership. What Joyce Osland and her expert colleagues give you in this excellent volume are robust conceptual and practical tools for informing your global leadership journey. A wonderful source!"
