Do you try to put yourself in others’ shoes to see things from their cultural perspective?

Are you able to bring together divergent views and develop a consensus?

Can you sense almost immediately whether something is going well or not?

Are you able to show sincere interest, concern, and respect?

The four dispositions of Flexibility, Acceptance, Curiosity, and Empathy should help global leaders have a better understanding of the cross-cultural situation in which they work, and address the situational and cultural challenges they might face. The relative importance of these dispositions, and how they should be applied, will certainly vary by culture and by situation. For example, in some cultures, having strong empathy will be more important for leaders to develop than being curious. In summary, global mindset is about having dispositions of flexibility, openness, curiosity, and empathy about different cultures and the people from those cultures. While there is much that still needs to be learned about these dispositions and how leaders develop them, it is clear from the research and interviews, however, that these are important elements of successful global leadership.
