Introduction:
It is an accepted notion that leaders coming from various countries have unique ways of leading their teams. This is due to the culture that they have been brought up in. The same set of characteristics will be instilled within individuals in varying levels being in line with how their individual cultures entertain or reject such characteristics. The Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness (GLOBE) framework is a tool that could be used in the above regard, to better understand in what areas leaders of various cultures differ from each other.
