An invaluable contribution to the area of leadership studies, the Handbook of International and Cross-Cultural Leadership Research Processes: Perspectives, Practice, Instruction brings together renowned authors with diverse cultural, academic, and practitioner backgrounds to provide a comprehensive overview and analysis of all stages of the research process. 
The handbook centers around authors’ international research reflections and experiences, with chapters that reflect and analyze various research experiences in order to help readers learn about the integrity of each stage of the international leadership research process with examples and discussions. Part I introduces philosophical traditions of the leadership field and discusses how established leadership and followership theories and approaches sometimes fail to capture leadership realities of different cultures and societies. Part II focuses on methodological challenges and opportunities. Scholars share insights on their research practices in different stages of international and cross-cultural studies. Part III is forward-looking in preparing readers to respond to complex realities of the leadership field: teaching, learning, publishing, and applying international and cross-cultural leadership research standards with integrity. The unifying thread amongst all the chapters is a shared intent to build knowledge of diverse and evolving leadership practices and phenomena across cultures and societies. 
The handbook is an excellent resource for a broad audience including scholars across disciplines and fields, such as psychology, management, history, cognitive science, economics, anthropology, sociology, and medicine, as well as educators, consultants, and graduate and doctoral students who are interested in understanding authentic leadership practices outside of the traditional Western paradigm.

Najafi Global Mindset Institute s new book, Developing Your Global Mindset: The Handbook for Successful Global Leaders, is full of practical and engaging ways to develop a Global Mindset for success in global business. This book is a must-have resource guide for managers and leaders in global roles or who have global responsibilities.
 In consultation with managers, executives, and some very senior and experienced international executive coaches, NGMI has put together a large series of advice, recommendations, and ideas on how a manager can improve on all elements of 35 scientifically defined capabilities within Global Mindset. All of the ideas are very actionable and very specific, and they don t usually take much time to implement. The development tips may be used by individuals or for direct reports, coaches, and teams. In addition to a rich variety of development suggestions, there are engaging narratives throughout the book illustrating the various components of Global Mindset in action.
 The diverse international experiences of the contributing authors bring Global Mindset to life through the narratives as well as seven intriguing case studies located at the end of the book. The case studies transport the reader into complex, real-world scenarios that cross geographic and cultural borders. They push the boundaries of one s current global leadership skills to identify ways to successfully influence diverse others while working within the complex and fast-paced world of global business. The case studies may be used for individual development through self-reflection or in teams, where the discussions will no doubt be lively.
