International Student and Expatriate Challenges Gender Diversity and Inequality Global and Cross-Cultural Management

Abstract

The current literature points to the importance of global mindset for success in global roles. In this study, we examine gender differences in global leadership self-efficacies in a random sample of 1187 managers from 74 countries. Using the global mindset inventory, we found that women demonstrated stronger global leadership profiles in regard to passion for diversity, intercultural empathy, and diplomacy. Conversely, men tend to show strong global leadership self-efficacies regarding global business savvy, cosmopolitan outlook, and interpersonal impact. We discuss the implications of our findings for shared leadership in global contexts and offer a series of suggestions regarding future directions for research.
