Global Leadership

Innovation Case Studies
Marcelle Davis  

Organizations continue to expand beyond United States borders. What are the key competencies leaders must have to ensure successful expansion and be effective in their role? Leaders are faced with many challenges today. As the marketplace expands and our borders become more fluid, leaders must ensure their organizations maintain a competitive edge while effectively leading a diverse workforce. While there are different types of diversity, there are key leadership competencies that are necessary for success as you take your organization to the next level. This innovation showcase will teach you about the critical skills and techniques a global leader needs. It will demonstrate how global leadership impacts the individual, the team, and the organization as a whole. After teaching the importance of these skills, the facilitator will engage audience with small group exercises - they are given challenges that require small group discussion in order to develop a solution. This allows the facilitator to gauge depth of audience's understanding and ability to apply skills that were taught.
