Every leader/manager is doing her/his job in the context of people, so, leadership and/or management is meaningful just with the people and the contexts
culture is the building block of the societies, and the leadership/management is done in different contexts and cultures
People as the most important factor in leadership/management differ from each other even in the same family
As you cannot find two people with the same fingerprints you cannot find people to think, believe and behave in the same ways as each other
Understanding cultural differences among societies, organizations, and workgroups is one of the most important competencies any leader needs
cultural management is a very important part of any leadership, strategic management, and changes management practices
one of the latest definitions of leadership is “ a leader is the one who leads a society of people from one paradigm and mindset to the other one “
how to understand cultures and their leadership/managerial implications, how to approach them, and to change them are the topics covered in the leadership and culture course of American College of Management.
