Abstract

This chapter provides insights into the concept of cross-cultural leadership. It describes and evaluates the diversity and different dimensions of various leadership theories and explores a comparative analysis of leadership within different cultures including perspectives from the West, Far East and the Middle East. The chapter also considers how embedded traditional values and leadership styles were somewhat modulated by the challenges of a pandemic that ravaged the world, afflicted all cultures, and threatened healthcare systems, socio-cultural behaviours and economic stability. Ostensibly, it appears that there is a corollary between resilience and effective response to the pandemic burden with the acquiescence of society to leadership directives and the leadership styles that were adopted.
