About the Book

In this age of globalization challenges--from economic uncertainty to emerging markets--there are no mapped out answers for the international manager. Global Explorers guides the global manager from the periphery to the center stage of international business leadership. In a 1997 survey of Fortune 500 firms conducted by authors J. Stewart Black, Allen J. Morrison and Hal B. Gregersen, virtually all companies indicated there was a severe shortage of global leaders. The demand for competent global leaders far outstrips the supply. Global Explorers provides the skills and outlines the competencies future global managers need to fill the leadership gap. Using extensive research, real-life examples, and 130 in-depth interviews with senior executives representing 50 global companies, including IBM, Disney, Exxon and Sony, Global Explorers suggests the reasons for the global leadership shortage, and identifies the necessary skills to compete in the international marketplace. For managers who want to safeguard their corporate future in these changing times, Global Explorers will help them develop a personal program for developing and balancing the skills they need to become successful global leaders.

Review :
"The cover of this book says it all - the impossibilities of leadership within the current education policy regime. Pat Thomson outlines in graphic and sometimes shocking detail the complexities of school headship. The book blows away the complacent niceties of leadership theories in an account of the risks, stresses and dissatisfactions of real leadership in real schools." - Stephen J Ball, Karl Mannheim Professor of Sociology of Education, University of London "Those responsible for principal preparation programs and professional development will benefit from the book's research related to the stress and satisfaction experienced by principals." -The School Administrator
