Corporate Global Citizens Program August 2010:

About the Corporate Global Citizens Program:

Most large enterprises today are becoming increasingly globalized, creating a need for leadership that can harness the creativity and innovation of multicultural and geographically distributed teams for better productivity and significant improvement in the bottom line. 

Our Network partner Marshall Goldsmith, in his book "Global Leadership: The Next Generation", has described the five characteristics of global leaders that resulted from researching 120 organizations. We call these leaders Corporate Global Citizens. 

Business case for Corporate Global Citizen:

• To improve bottom line by better Global Execution Capability
• To deepen employees understanding of organizational goals and alignment with it.
• Understanding and real ownership of Corporate Social Responsibility and how it improves ones life.

The Corporate Global Citizen program will focus on the five competencies and the CORE insight, WE are Connected. 

• WE are Connected
  • Is the key element of our Corporate Global Citizen Model. This is the "CORE", means we strive for strong sense of connection. 
• Without a strong sense of connectivity these five competencies will not be fully realized.

Global Mindset means that corporate global citizens look at the world from every possible angle, intuitively synchronizing themselves to the prevailing culture, social trends, levels of technology, and the dynamics of the local political-economic realities. In effect, they become world citizens, because they are never perceived as foreign wherever they might be (Ed Cohen).

Cross-Cultural Competence means understanding national, regional, ethnic, industry, organizational, professional, gender and age cultures, and having the ability to interact, lead and manage effectively in these cultural environments (Karine Schomer).

Tech Savvy means enthusiasm in understanding technology advances and its strategic use for the organization. The corporate global citizen views technology as an integral part of life – not believing that is something important for staff and operations but not for me (M. Goldsmith).

Partnering Skills is the ability to negotiate complex alliances and manage complex networks of relationships while simultaneously building positive, long term, win-win relationships (M. Goldsmith).

Collaborative Leadership is about getting the right people together in the right way: convening is a more critical skill than commanding (Peter Block). Recorded Webinar will be available to all registered participants.
