Instructions

Assume that your manager (real or imagined) has asked you to prepare a business report on Cultural Differences in Leadership which will be shared at the next executive meeting. In this report, your manager requires well documented information on the ways that leadership differs across cultures, focusing on the importance of understanding cross- cultural differences for global businesses. Remember to get to the "why" and "how" of its use. It is a report so personal experience, thoughts and opinion may be used reflectively. 

Analysis (This section can correspond to Headings 2, 3, 4 of the Rubric) This is where you present your understanding of cultural intelligence for international business leaders, complexity surrounding cultural layers, main cultural theories for global leadership, you can narrow down to 2-3 factors and discuss these in detail (justify why you selected these 2-3 factors), evidence of understanding these cultural factors for effective leadership. Your analysis should be free of assumptions or cliché. Describing and definitions should be kept to a minimum. Focus on analysis and arguments based on research evidence and real-world business examples. Also include discussion of impact you believe your analysis will have on your (assumed) organization, and offer reasoned forecast of your research on businesses.
