Abstract:

Modern business managers operate under intense performance pressures in a turbulent, globalized
environment, while dealing with reduced workforces, and hyper-competition. Literature offers a
preponderance of evidence to suggest that future global leadership would be founded on the tenets of
sustainability and social responsibility. The Bird and Osland Pyramid Model of Global Leadership
suggests a progression of knowledge and traits that are cumulative, advancing from bottom to top. At the base lies knowledge of how business is done across borders, basic concepts of international marketing, finance and human resource management. The IB program of the Arkansas State University could be developed to build global leadership capacity. A survey of students and faculty of ASU, and northeast Arkansas business professionals confirmed the need for curricula development to achieve learning in the leadership pyramid.
