Leadership is a key element of all organizations, but its function and capacity are getting more complicated with increased participation in globalization and technology development (Punnett, 2004). The importance of effective leadership in cross-cultural management has been highlighted in the literature (Nguyen & Umemoto, 2009). Technological advances extend the possibility of global economy which has changed the way people do business and communicate. Cross-cultural managers must look at the world change as a challenge and an opportunity for organizational growth and individual development. In addition, to handle with the changes, international business educators and organizers need to respond rapidly to the impacts of demographics, technology, and globalization in order to offer specific job skill development on global leadership, work ethic, and continuous learning (Aggarwa, 2011). Since globalization and technology have been accelerating business changes and generating challenges, today’s global leaders need to obtain a set of competencies that will enable them to implement their vision and lead effectively. How to develop effective leaders with the skills needed to adequately deal with organizational challenges has been a challenge for all organizations (Amagoh, 2009). Global leaders must be prepared with the leadership skills required in the multicultural workplace. In other words, important leadership components and significant global leadership skills need to be identified to improve international leaders’ competitiveness and performance efficiency. Thus, the purposes of this study required to (a) observe the new look of leadership in varied workplace development and cross-cultural management, (b) categorize challenges for global leaders, and (c) identify vital leadership skills for success as a global leader in this swiftly moving world.
