Transformational Leadership in a Diverse and Inclusive Organizational Culture

Abstract

The long term and recent effects of globalization and increasing ethnic and gender diversity are turning the attention of leaders to the management of cultural differences in a diverse and inclusive organizational culture. The pressure to change or adapt requires organizations to value diversity in order to increase organizational effectiveness and synergy. Starting from this point of view, this chapter reviews and offers suggestions on how transformational leadership in an inclusive culture can create a commitment, higher performance, and sustainability with diversity management in a public organization. Understanding expectations in different circumstances is crucial to creating passionate employees with a positive attitude for the organization.
