Leadership in Cross-Cultural Contexts: Strategies for Global Success

Abstract

Over the years, globalization has significantly transformed traditional societies into a modernized structure, thus increasingly opening up several relevant subjects for research. This rapid expansion of the global economy has led today's corporations to hire an increasing number of multinational professionals in the cross-cultural setting. As the distance of the country's borders has shrunk, it has progressively become important to align organization procedures along the movement of labor to international borders. However, leading an interconnected system of globalized operations is not an easy task. From the stakeholders' perspective, the firms require an ability to influence the corporation's doings, representing a diverse need for cultural management. This special issue aims to serve as a valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, and leaders interested in the nuances of cross-cultural leadership. By examining challenges and opportunities, we aspire to foster a deeper understanding of effective strategies for leading diverse teams in the globalized business landscape, ultimately contributing to the success and sustainability of organizations worldwide.
