Culture
The skills required to be a multicultural leader
Appreciation of and interest in the cultures of others
Respect for different cultures other than your own
Awareness of own bias and prejudices
Ability to listen to employees and take evidence based decisions
Flexibility
Women in leadership
Evidence shows women are less represented in leadership roles.
"Almost four in ten businesses in G7 countries have no women in senior management"
Why :!?:
Greater expectations on women leaders
Perception is that men are bolder and take more risks.
Gender stereotyping
advantages of having women in leadership
Better understand and reflect the needs of the population
Women who succeed in business, particularly male dominated industries tend to be bolder
Having good female role models can encourage other women to aim for leadership roles
