DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe CCBS Global Leadership series seeks to compare and contrast leadership styles and practices across the world. Based on country-specific literature reviews, and empirical analyses of survey and interview data with local leadership scholars, management trainers, and writers, our series demonstrates how global leadership skills are wholly distinct from those that are required in the domestic context. In this latest edition, the following countries are examined: Algeria, Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahamas, Bangladesh, Belgium, Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire, Czechia, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, France, Guyana, Luxembourg, Madagascar, Moldova, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Slovakia, Tunisia and Uganda. Mapping Global Leadership can help senior executives to create forward momentum within their organisations, remain abreast of the latest developments in global leadership, along with enabling them to successfully operate in unfamiliar cultural settings. It does so by helping leaders navigate the ongoing shift toward culturally-endorsed leadership styles and practices in twenty-four nations.
