TL;DR: Smith and Cockburn as mentioned in this paper position such global futures speculations as imaginative art rather than exact science and move away from dominant approaches in two key literatures: leadership literature and public relations literature while acknowledging the contribution both have made to the importance of future vision.
Abstract: Enacting future global visions such as the Belt and Road Initiative, while emerging from a pandemic and in the midst of climate emergency negotiations at COP-26, suggests a contest in the public relations domain as much as the domain of political leadership. The spread of malicious, ill-informed rumour-mongering, and disinformation on social media continues, even including former, US president, Trump. Thus, it is important to position such global futures speculations as much as imaginative art rather than exact science and move away from dominant approaches in two key literatures. Firstly, in leadership literature, and secondly in the public relations literature while acknowledging the contribution both have made to the importance of future vision. We must also distance ourselves from the view that such projections are the restricted domain of political, Professional public relations, or other leaderships and adopt new models of leadership for the digital era (Smith and Cockburn in Dynamic leadership models for global business: Enhancing digitally connected environments, IGI Global, 2013; Smith and Cockburn in Developing and leading emergence teams, Routledge, 2016; Smith and Cockburn in Global business leadership development for the fourth industrial revolution, IGI Global, 2020).

Abstract: This chapter shares insights and challenges regarding a fun and interactive experiential tool—dance and movement—in cross-cultural management education with a focus on global leadership. It introduces an exercise, where leaders, followers, their connection, and the elements surrounding them in today’s highly turbulent environment are analyzed through movement and lessons from the kinesthetic experience on the dance floor.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that without proper infrastructuring, which includes development and maintenance of infrastructure, a world leader industrialized country cannot possibly maintain its leadership, and they argue that the BRIC countries, that is, Brazil, Russia, India, and China, are putting more emphasis on their infrastructure than the USA.
Abstract: Perhaps one of the most important questions this book raises is: Does infrastructure lead to global leadership? As there are many aspects of infrastructure, this question is rather difficult to answer; however, it would be rather to say that without proper infrastructuring, which includes development and maintenance of infrastructures, a world leader industrialized country cannot possibly maintain its leadership. At the writing of this book, all the BRIC countries, that is, Brazil, Russia, India, and China, are putting more emphasis on their infrastructures than the USA. Although not necessarily a direct result of this situation, many economists are not placing the USA at the top ten leading countries in the world for the coming 2 decades or so.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyze the evolution of the global leadership of the United States of America in the context of the development of a modern system of international relations and conclude that America remains the main actor in the modern world arena.
Abstract: The article analyzes the peculiarities and perspectives of the evolution of the global leadership of the United States of America in the context of the development of a modern system of international relations. The author agrees with the conclusions of most researchers about the undeniable leadership of the United States in the political, socio-economic, technological, and military aspects at the early third millennium. That means that America controls the evolution of the international system and continues to be the main actor in the modern world arena. At the same time, the author cites an opinion from Z. Brzezinski that «in the course of the next several decades, a functioning structure of global cooperation, based on geopolitical realities, could thus emerge and gradually assume the mantle of the world's current "regent," which has for the time being assumed the burden of responsibility for world stability and peace. Geostrategic success in that cause would represent a fitting legacy of America's role as the first, only, and last truly global superpower».
