There are many characteristics needed to be a global leader, which I have listed below. As you know, discussions are designed for you to share your expertise and thoughts regarding each discussion topic this semester. There is never a need to find outside sources, as I want you to share your thoughts with your peers, as if we were in a traditional classroom having an intellectual dialogue on the many topics. However, you are more than welcome to conduct any research you wish, but note that no direct quotes are allowed, only your full interpretation of the discussion question.
From this list of characteristics, select four that you “personally” feel are important to possess as a global leader. If you have other characteristics outside this list, please feel free to use them, but you must have at least four characteristics. Of these four global leadership characteristics, explain:
