As businesses become more multinational, the need for leadership talent that travels across borders has never been greater. Presenting a wealth of original, previously unpublished research, Winning the Global Leadership Challenge is a perfectly timed investigation into what makes a high-performance global leader -- and how organizations can source the leadership that will power its global growth strategies.
Drawing on decades of collective experience as practitioners, researchers, and consultants, the authors identify the five critical dimensions of global leaders; define what each dimension looks like in action; and clearly illustrate how to assess an organization, its business units, and its leaders for global capability. Finally, the book shows how to recruit, retain and develop global leaders at all levels. Easy to read, and simple to apply, this book's insight, approaches, and tools provide readers with a cogent overview and proven framework for building effective leaders for the global organization of today.
