Situational Leadership is an Employee centered approach
Cultural intelligence (CI) in a globalized business organization
1. Situational leadership refers to a kind of leadership when the leader or manager of an organization adjusts his style to fit the level of the subordinates. The situational leadership is based on the thought that there is no best style of leadership, and all kinds of leadership depends on the situation. Even though we can see similarities among people, at some point all humans are unique and different. Each of us have different experiences and perspectives that create diversity. Instead of treating everyone equally from a common or single perspective, the situational leader recognizes the need to be flexible to each one.
2. Cultural intelligence is a sociological term which refers to the ability for people, organizations, and businesses to relate to culturally diverse situations and work effectively in them. It is very much important for businesses to know how well an employee interact and communicate with people related to the business.
