Competent Leader - Steve Jobs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAdih-bnjBQ

This video clip focuses on the illustration of inspiration as a form of leadership competency in relation to global business leadership. It is ideal to note that Steve Jobs' valuable leadership traits base the video clip on an interview. The concept of inspiration enables leaders to focus on the achievement of goals and objectives through defining targets effectively and efficiently to the followers. Inspiration refers to the process of mental stimulation towards the development of the feeling for execution of creative or responsibilities within the context of an organization, society, or state. Inspiration is vital for the achievement of the common goals and targets thus realization of competitive advantage within the industry or market of operation.

Global Leadership Final
Presently, across borders global economy is becoming a competitive landscape that is turning out to be more complex, dynamic and indefinite for operating firms. Global leaders are born and then made for the reason that the full potential of an individual can't be realized until they are provided with an opportunity and regular training. (Gregersen et al.,1998). However, in order to obtain opportunity and education an individual must show interest in and process necessary skills for global leadership. A global leader is required to stretch their mind so as to incorporate the entire world with hundreds of countries, business contexts and cultures. A global leader has got to retain four distinct competencies including; personal literacy, social literacy, business literacy as well as cultural literacy (Bingham, 2000). At present, dealing with uncertainty is a leadership characteristic which a global leader must have. Also, in business understanding the need of….

While it is certainly important for a global leader to have what Stephen L. Cohen refers to as a "global mindset" -- and he refers to a "global mindset" as the most important attribute -- this paper argues that a global mindset is but one of the pivotal leadership traits that an executive needs in the global marketplace in 2013. What Cohen alludes to as a global mindset is an impressive bit of scholarship and creative business thinking -- and there is no doubt he has done the homework necessary to justify his assertions. However, there are skills and talents that are just as important -- if not more important -- in terms of operating a profitable business overseas. Those equally -- or more -- important skills and talents will be presented in this paper.

Innovation in a Context of Global Leadership

In one regard, global leadership and innovation would seem to go hand in hand. Indeed, the proliferation of global corporate orientation is itself a condition produced by the incredible impact of certain innovations. As the text by Kanter (2006) indicates, certain periods of rapid innovation have altered the landscape for global leadership. Kanter observes that "the first was the dawn of the global information age in the late 1970s and the early 1980s, an era that introduced new industries and threatened to topple old ones." (p. 74)

In this observation, we can see that innovation is frequently disruptive and progressive all at once. It also suggests that in a globalizing context, judicious use of innovative strategies may be necessary for survival. This discussion demonstrates that while effective innovation and global leadership are not inherently dependent upon one another, they do share a reciprocal relationship.

Global Leadership
Prior to denoting a specific plan for outlining how Jiango, a senior vice president for Deronde International, a French fragrance company looking to expand its international interests into emerging markets, it is critical to denote the executive's strengths and weaknesses. Doing so will reveal a significant degree of insight into what the apparent gaps are between him and his predominantly French colleagues and result in creating a course of action that can account for such differences in global and cultural competencies that are apparent. Such differences are fairly common in international executives (Nardon and Steers 2007, p. 47). To Jiango's credit, he appears to be extremely knowledgeable about culture from an international perspective. He was largely hired at Deronde due to his "intimacy" (Nohria 2009, p. 32) of knowledge regarding Asian markets. There are also passages in "From Regional Star to Global Leader" that intimates he is familiar with….

"Diagnosing Your Cultural Intelligence"

What does the DYCI test tell me about my competencies? There are some interesting responses one can make, for example: a) I agree that when "unexpected" things happen while meeting a person from another culture that experience should be chalked up as a learning moment; b) I strongly disagree that I can change my "body language" to "suit people from a different culture; c) I disagree with asking myself what I hope to achieve when meeting a person from another culture and I disagree that I can alter my expression in a new cultural context; and d) I agree I can deal with unfamiliar cultural situations and I disagree that I need to (or can) adapt to the "…lifestyle of a different culture with relative ease" (Earley / Mosakowski).

Global Leadership Competencies
International organizations need transformation. Leaders in all sectors have a challenge to lead globally now and in the future. This requires an examination of current leaders of international organizations who have always been required to lead globally. Many lessons come out of these leaders because they have experience, influence, and motivation. The lessons will help others become successful global leaders and lead to success in the future. Leadership is the most important issue for managing people in organizations today, and developing leaders is a necessary human resource vision to achieving global success.

Some of the competencies global leaders should have include honesty, teamwork, and communication among many others. Owing to advances in education and technology, there is a risk of decline in the importance of national boundaries with time; also, a decline in cultural divergence is possible with time. International leaders have a moral obligation, or social responsibility to….

• Define global leadership

Global leaders are born and then made for the reason; since the full potential of an individual can't be realized until they are provided with an opportunity and regular training (Gregersen et al.,1998). In order to survive in this competitive world, the global organizations have to face increased challenges and competition for which the success demands the corporate top manager's best performance. Whilst working across multiple borders these executives have the opportunity of becoming global leaders.The leadership style of an admirable global leaders is such that engenders superior corporate performance by creating a balance amongst four competing criteria of performance including; profitability and productivity, continuity and efficiency, commitment and morale and adaptability and innovation. According to Turnbull (2009) global leadership is a contested term as it is applied in different ways by people belonging from different disciplines and with different understanding of leadership.Globalization is referred to….

A leader is proactive, not afraid of making mistakes, and when one is made, they learn from it and move on. Effective leaders strive to spend more time preventing problems and less time solving them. An organization is most effective when everyone has a sense ownership and a stake in the success of the organization. There is power in group intelligence. I would hope that the people I work with will know I value their opinions and input on all matters. The smarter and more skilled one member of the organization becomes the better the organization as a whole. I have been lucky to have been exposed to excellent role models and mentors and given many opportunities to begin developing the skills necessary to be an effective leader. I believe in the long run the role of a leader is not to create followers, but to create new leaders.

Precious startup capital can then be logistically provided to critical areas that otherwise would go unserved to accomplish a large amount of growth with less money. Even white collar functions such as customer service, sales, computers, finance and accounting operations can be outsourced to India or a number of overseas centers with large concentrations of Anglo speakers and readers. Companies are increasingly outsourcing more and more complex functions than ever before and can do so without compromising quality at a cut rate price (Lewin, Massini & Peeters, 2009, 1407)

elevance of global leadership cannot be overstated in today's business world. This is more so the case given that the boarders that existed between nations three or four decades ago are slowly becoming nonexistent as the globe becomes more and more interconnected. Indeed, to remain relevant, businesses are increasingly exploring opportunities beyond their traditional markets. It is for these and many other reasons that global leadership has become so important. In this text, I largely concern myself with global leadership and why its relevance cannot be overstated going forward.
Global Leadership: Its Definition and elevance

The global economy significantly differs from the domestic economy. For this reason, the skills a leader would need to succeed in a domestic situation are not the same skills he or she would require in the global marketplace. It therefore follows that some differences exist between global leaders and domestic leaders. However, it should be noted that….

Some of these culturally 'bound' attributes were being a risk-taker and provocateur. They were found to be more positive in highly individualistic cultures such as the United States. In contrast, being evasive was judged to be a positive, diplomatic quality in some cultures but negative in Anglo cultures.
hile charisma and value-based leadership was associated with positive types of leadership cross-culturally, team-based and participative leadership qualities were far more variable in their ratings, as were humaneness and self-protectiveness. Also, cultures that value independence tend to value charisma more, while more conciliatory cultures, such as the Middle East, judge it as less important. Team leadership was associated with outstanding leadership in the Middle East, in contrast to Anglo cultures, which gave this quality far less priority. However, participative leadership was rated highly in Anglo cultures. This type of democratic leadership style stands in profound contrast to the cultural emphasis on strong,….

Vol.2.No.13. https://www.ijbssnet.com/journals/Vol._2_No._13_Special_Issue_July_2011/2.pdf The article dwells on the aspect of leadership and the contemporary globalized environment where the employees of all organizations are mixed in terms of age, experience, cultures and race. The three authors, all of whom are professors in different universities concentrate on discussing how organizations have become multicultural in nature and how the leadership must change to adopt the global leadership characteristics. Such a global leadership, they say needs to take into account the culture, the global strategy and the competitiveness of the competitiveness of the current market. Further, the article discusses the taxonomy of global leadership competencies and meta-competencies. In this respect, they discuss how ethics in the highly diverse cultural workplaces can be taught and the leaders need to conform to adapt to the needs of the organization and….

Global Leaderships Self-IntegrationIntroductionIn an increasingly globalized world, it is important for leaders to be aware of the role that culture plays in shaping both individual and collective identity. As culture is often intimately linked with a sense of self, it can be a powerful tool for leaders seeking to build strong relationships and foster a sense of community. At the same time, however, leaders must also be sensitive to the fact that culture can also be a source of division. When not managed effectively, cultural differences can lead to conflict and misunderstanding. As such, it is critical for leaders to promote an understanding of and respect for cultural diversity. Only by doing so can they hope to build a truly global community. This paper will discuss the importance of a global leaders self-integration and its relationship to self/cultural identity. It will also describe the importance of understanding self-complexity theory as….
