Preparing Students for Global Citizenship: Role Play as a Pedagogical Tool

Abstract: Preparing students for global citizenship is a mission that requires innovative teaching and inspired learning. Instruction in political science fields such as International Relations and Comparative Politics challenges educators to identify teaching tools that awaken students to citizenship beyond their immediate borders. Identifying such tools is no simple task given the varied interests of students and their general reluctance to reach beyond their comfort zones in real life. This paper explores role play as a pedagogical tool and examines its potential for preparing parochial minded students for global citizenship. The paper reviews techniques for promoting global citizenship and illustrates how allowing students to switch citizenship roles with persons of the other world can enthuse them with global understanding and ready them for global leadership and service.

Global Leadership, Capacity for Judgment Integrity, and Acculturized Organizational Knowledge

Abstract: To overcome the dysfunctional overemphasis on control and pronounced homogeneity of U.S. global leadership teams, the authors advocate a model of individual and collective development of the capacity for judgment integrity in leadership, ethics, and organizational change decisions to better address global behavioral, moral, and change complexity. They next advocate action learning processes that incorporate experience, methods, tools, and cases into organizational training programs so that the asset of acculturized organizational knowledge will capture both explicit, migratory Western knowledge and tacit, embedded non-Western knowledge. Finally, the authors recommend three action steps global leaders can take to enhance organizational capacities that will lead to sustainable global competitive advantage.

What global organizations can do to reduce leadership risk, increase speed to competence, and build global leadership muscle

Abstract: Global Leadership Development: What Global Organizations Can Do to Reduce Leadership Risk, Increase Speed to Competence, and Build Global Leadership Muscle By Steve Terrell, Ed.D., and Katherine Rosenbusch, Ed.D. Globalization is driving an increased need for leaders who possess competencies that enable them to lead effectively. Recent research into the developmental experiences of global leaders and what they learned yielded new knowledge and insights that should prove valuable to global leadership development practitioners. Implications of this research are that organizations should (1) Provide intensive cross-cultural, global leadership development experiences, (2) Foster multicultural understanding and sensitivity for potential global leaders, (3) Prepare potential and current global leaders to develop and maintain relationships and networks, (4) Foster curiosity and a desire to learn about other countries and cultures among potential and current global leaders, (5) Promote the need for an attitude of openness toward experience and learning, (6) Provide knowledge and tools to enhance global leaders’ ability to learn from experience, (7) and Integrate intuitive, ad hoc learning approaches and structured global leadership development practices.

Building global leadership at Avery Dennison

Abstract: As Avery Dennison grew from a collection of autonomous international businesses to a more integrated global corporation, the demands on leaders called for new capabilities. Several years of effort and a new leadership model led to an integrated, competency-driven leadership development system, supported by powerful tools and processes—and hard-earned wisdom about how to grow global leaders. The company draws talent from around the world, manages the talent pool as a global asset, and gives managers global experiences and responsibilities to help them develop the skills needed to become global leaders. It also holds managers deeply accountable for developing leaders, and measuring and rewarding their results. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Consequences of us - china rivalry and covid -19: opportunity for india to rise in global order

Abstract: India and the international community at large to witness transformations in the global order post-Covid-19 era and this provides large scale opportunities to the nation of 1.3 billion to play a dominant role in international geo-political map. Pre Covid-19 days, world witnessed the dominance of United States of America and newly emerging superpower China in the first two decades of 21st century. The international community, always, was sceptical of China's economic growth story and military might, worried about its muscular and aggressive foreign policy in Asian continent and across the boundaries. The business will no longer be equivalent to the pre-Covid days and other nations are looking for self-reliance or other sources for meeting their indispensable needs, apart from China. Therefore, in the post-Covid era in meeting these global expectations, India can be the global leader, whether in a health, economic, technological or pharmaceutical sector. India, the largest democracy in the world, enjoys international support and cooperation and with US support can be the leading player in the international order, being better placed than any other nation in fighting this pandemic. India can be the new supply chain of the US and other western states. To become the global leader, India first need to act and survive this onslaught by Covid-19 and then thrive towards achieving the global leader status after taking advantages of opportunities such as new alliances in middle-east, rivalries between the United States of America and China.
