Abstract:
The purpose of this paper was to examine leadership, power, culture, and ethics in a transcultural context. The literature review showed that power, culture, and ethics are interconnected with leadership. The literature also revealed that these forces are also influenced by differences in national cultures. An organization’s culture is also a reflection of their employees’ different cultural backgrounds. Issues involving culture and its impact on strategic management were also discussed. Based on the review of the current literature, future research should focus on how transcultural leadership theory can be used to better understand the underlying leader-follower relationships in a transcultural context.
