Contemporary Leadership and Intercultural Competence: Exploring the Cross-Cultural Dynamics Within Organizations ReviewI often have discussions with colleagues about who the new voices are in leadership theory, particularly the field of global leadership. Who will expand upon the work of Hofstede, Trompenaars, Hampden-Turner, Adler, and the GLOBE team and emerge as one of the new standard-bearers in the field? I believe that this book showcases some of the new and exciting concepts in the study of culture and leadership and should be a welcome addition to the library of superb books on cross-cultural leadership that have been released over the last 10 years.

The book is really divided into two parts: a series of chapters that discuss the evolving role of diversity in organizations and chapters that provide details (down to the validity and reliability) of cultural instruments. Most of the chapters are strong, particularly those that address the basics of culture, multicultural vision, training, HR, culture and the law, and communication/conflict.

The book also has a god mix of veteran contributors and newcomers to the field. Michael Dukakis (a name that I hadn¹t heard in years) starts things off with a nice commentary about life as a Greek American. Many of the people from the Intercultural Communication Institute in Portland wrote solid pieces that drive the theory home.

If I have one criticism of the book, it¹s that Moodian at times seems to be trying to do too much and trying to address too may issues in 300 pages. Perhaps the book should have been longer or maybe he should have cut the number of chapters down.

Overall, I recommend reading this book. It compliments Northouse¹s book on leadership theory and some of the books that have been released on cultural intelligence.Contemporary Leadership and Intercultural Competence: Exploring the Cross-Cultural Dynamics Within Organizations OverviewFeaturing contributions from some of the world's most renowned cross-cultural management theorists and commentators, this breakthrough text explores the cross-cultural dynamics within organizations. The book examines the evolving role of cultural diversity in the workplace, the application of cultural comprehension to organizations, and the measurement of various aspects of intercultural competence.
