Leadership skill requirement as per Global leaders

A lot of research is carried out each year on the requirements of the new global leader and the new set of skills as well as the experiences necessary to prepare people to take on this challenge. Many believe that the most important aspect of effective global leadership is not necessarily acquiring a new set of skills or experiences, but instead a fresh perspective called a global mindset. 

Sadly, many organizations have few candidates for overseas assignments, no information about those in the firm who aspire to such opportunities, no clear understanding of the competencies required for such assignments, and little interest being expressed by younger internal managers in becoming global leaders.
