Abstract
An effective leader knows the difference between being the boss and being a leader in higher education. A true leader recognizes all cultures in their institution, understands what these cultural differences can bring to an institution as a whole, and is inclusive of all. What values do you use to characterize yourself as an effective leader and, is being culturally responsive one of them? Are you able to show gratitude towards all cultures at your institution? This interactive discussion will answer these questions by discussing issues related to cultural competence, cultural responsiveness, compassion, confidence, courage, honesty, humility, integrity, motivation, openness, passion, and trust for leaders.
