5 Leadership Behaviors ✤ According to the University of Iowa leadership behaviors (or styles) are: 1. Autocratic Style: a leader who centralize authority, dictates work methods, makes unilateral decisions, and limits employee participation 2. Democratic Style: a leader who involves employees in decision making, delegates authority, encourages participation in deciding work methods, and uses feedback to coach employees 3. Laissez-Faire Style: a leader who generally gives employees complete freedom to make decisions and to complete their work however they see fit

6 Different Leaders ✤ According to University of Michigan: ✤ Employee Oriented: a leader who emphasizes the people aspects ✤ Production Oriented: a leader who emphasizes the technical or task aspects ✤ Transactional Leaders: leaders who lead primarily by using social exchanges (or transactions) ✤ Transformational Leaders: leaders who stimulate and inspire (transform) followers to achieve extraordinary outcomes

7 Different Leaders ✤ Charismatic Leaders: enthusiastic, self-confident leaders whose personalities and actions influence people to behave in certain ways ✤ Visionary Leadership: the ability to create articulate a realistic, credible, and attractive vision of the future that improves on the present situation

8 Global Leadership Competency Assessment Instruments ✤ There are two main models (instruments) used to assess global leader competencies; they are: 1. Global Competencies Inventory (GCI): assesses three types of competencies: perception management, relationship management, and self management 2. Global Executive Leadership Inventory: assesses two roles played by the executive: charismatic and architectural Source: Bird, Allan, Martha L. Maznevski, Mark E. Mendenhall, Gary R. Oddou, and Joyce S. Osland. "Assessing Global Leadership Competencies." Global Leadership: Research, Practice, and Development. London [u.a.: Routledge, 2008. 74-80. Print.

9 GCI: Perception Management ✤ This group includes the following dimensions: ✤ Nonjudgmentalness ✤ Inquisitiveness ✤ Tolerance of Ambiguity ✤ Cosmopolitan ✤ Category of Inclusiveness

10 GCI: Relationship Management ✤ This group includes the following dimensions: ✤ Relationship Interest ✤ Interpersonal Engagement ✤ Emotional Sensitivity ✤ Self-Awareness ✤ Behavioral Flexibility

11 GCI: Self Management ✤ This group includes the following dimensions: ✤ Optimism ✤ Self-Confidence ✤ Emotional Resilience ✤ Non-Stress Tendency ✤ Stress Management ✤ Interest Flexibility

12 Global Executive Leadership Inventory ✤ Here, we examine the charismatic and architectural roles of the leader ✤ This includes the following dimensions: Visioning, Empowering, Energizing, Designing and Aligning, Rewarding and Feedback, Team Building, Outside Orientation, Global Mindset, Tenacity, Emotional Intelligence, Life Balance, and Resilience to Stress

13 Trust ✤ Trust: the belief on the integrity, character, and ability of a leader ✤ Dimensions of trust: 1. Integrity: honesty and truthfulness 2. Competence: technical and interpersonal knowledge and skills 3. Consistency: reliability, predictability, and good judgement in handling situations 4. Loyalty: willingness to protect a person, physically and emotionally 5. Openness: willingness to share ideas and information freely

14 Learning Outcomes ✤ There are different approaches of defining leadership: trait, behavior, situational, and power-influence ✤ Thus, we describe leaders differently, in terms of charisma, transformation, autocracy... etc. ✤ Domestic and multi-domestic leaders are not global leaders; global leaders are assessed differently ✤ Trust is the essence of leadership
