Abstract
Global mindset has been proposed to be the only unique characteristic of effective global leadership. This article proposes a framework of global mindset that combines cultural intelligence and global business orientation. In addition, relationships are proposed between global mindset and individual outcomes such as trust, leader—member exchange relationship quality, and organizational commitment. Variables such as complexity of global role and leader distance are also proposed to moderate the relationship between a global leader’s global mindset and outcome variables. The authors also discuss the impact of the proposed relationships and discuss directions for future research.
