Abstract

Although leadership is broadly considered to be universal across countries, regions, and cultures, operationalization of leadership phenomena and preferences are often regarded as culturally specific. In the face of global challenges there is a need to integrate the different leadership practices across cultures to address these challenges. The purpose of this book chapter is to explore the orientation of both the North-West (individualistic culture) and the South-East leadership theories (collectivist culture), explore the most dominant models used to explain leadership behaviors in these contexts, and propose elements of an integrated leadership model that accounts for variation in preferences and styles across cultures. The key issues to be discussed include variations among meaning and scope of leadership across cultures, global differences in leadership practices and preferences, historical and emergent leadership models in the North–West and South–East, and exploring areas of convergence.
