We  would  de)ine  global  mindset  as  one  that  combines  an  openness  to  and  awareness  of  diversity  across  cultures  and  markets  with  a  propensity  and  ability  to  see  common  patterns  across  countries  and  markets.  In  a  company  with  a  global  mindset,  people  view  cultural  and  geographic  diversity  as  opportunities  to  exploit  and  are  prepared  to  adopt  successful  practices  and  good  ideas  wherever  they  come  from.  

Global mindset requires leaders to: • Tolerate ambiguity and integrate multiple perspectives. • Adopt an interdependent approach to decision-making. • Look to underlying values to bridge cultural differences. • Value the expression of diversity.
