Beschreibung
Academic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Management Styles, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Emden/Leer, language: English, abstract: This scholarly paper aims to create a concept for the development of international executives. The purpose of this concept is to empower international leaders to meet the challenges of different nationalities, cultures and resulting business practices. For this purpose, the current state of literature on national and international leadership practice is reviewed, national differences in leadership culture are analyzed and evaluated, and on this basis concrete measures for international leadership development are derived. Then, the essential measures are brought together to form a feasible concept for successful international leadership practice, which is compared with the management experience of a board member of a German S-DAX company. The development of an international leadership concept is necessary because there is a gap in current research and literature in this field. Although the need for preparation for international leadership tasks is emphasized and some individual measures for leadership training have already been developed, there is no practical, holistic development concept. This will be the result of the authors of this paper. The research was carried out as follows: First, the essential terms for the paper were defined and placed in an international context by means of the current literature. Afterwards, the secondary literature is analyzed in order to find out and to be able to systematize the essential differences of the world's largest economies. This is followed by an expert interview about dealing with the in-creased need for international leadership, a case study to transform failed to successful international leadership, after which the elaborated measures for international leadership development are presented. One on of this paper’s main results is that a large part of the countries considered have big differences in their leadership practice due to cultural distinctions. Here, a transferability without adjustments would not be possible. In this context, our solution concept consists of the following 5 measures for the development of successful international executives. First, we suggest the development of international leadership models. Second, an intercultural 360-degree-feedback should be implemented. Then a global company should introduce international employee surveys. In addition, international leadership assessment centers are needed.
