“…“As leadership theories become more inclusive and integrative, they have more potential to take into account multiple dimensions of individual identities and context, organizational cultures and subcultures … visions for transformational change, and ethical principles” (Eagly & Chin, 2010, p. 221). Scholars in the field of leadership have also maintained the importance of leaders in being globally minded, appreciating cultural diversity and inclusivity, and building affiliations across cultural divides (Gaudelli, 2014; Goldsmith & Walt, 1999; Hargreaves & Shirley, 2012). This is aligned to the idea of possessing a “cosmopolitan disposition.” According to Rizvi (2008, 2012), a cosmopolitan disposition enables an individual to understand local issues within a broader context of global changes, changes that are responsible for the restructuring of local contexts and environments, and also social identities.…”

This article unpacks the ideology of “cosmopolitan leadership,” a leadership theory that has surfaced from a qualitative study that examines the comparative analysis of global citizenship education (GCE) in two primary schools: one international school in Singapore and an independent school in Australia. This article unpacks the idea of “cosmopolitan leadership” and the features of this distinctive form of leadership in institutionalizing GCE in the respective contexts and schools. School leaders in both contexts, took an active role in driving GCE in the school, through the introduction of the international curricular model and by keeping themselves abreast with global curriculum initiatives and through curriculum innovation. These curricula initiatives assisted in the take-up of GCE that enabled the schools to attain their vision of developing global citizens. These were aligned to the schools’ as well as national policies and evidenced innovative approaches to address the complexity of contemporary diversity, as well as the demands of the global world. This response was situated in multiple influential contexts, which included the national contexts of the two schools, encompassing the nature and geopolitical positioning of each society, the provision of schooling, the nature of schools and the specific policies governing the two schools, and their market contexts, which have influenced their approaches towards GCE.

“…One methodology for obtaining assessments from different constituencies at the individual level of analysis is multisource feedback (MSF) (Bracken et al, 2001) -also known as multirater assessments (Nadler, 1977) and 360-degree feedback (Tornow, London and CCL Associates, 1998;Waldman and Atwater, 1998). MSF entered the world of psychological assessment and performance management in the late 1960 s, becoming popular as computer and web technology made the collection and analysis of complex sets of data more manageable (Goldsmith and Walt, 1999;Lepsinger and Lucia, 1997;London, 1995London, , 1997.…”

Purpose -The purpose of this research is to examine multisource feedback from a stakeholder perspective, arguing that select competency assessments that different rater groups provide are valid predictors of the "partner" potential and advancement of senior professional service professionals (PSPs). Design/methodology/approach -A 360-degree assessment tool for PSPs, the Relationship Management Survey (RMS), was administered to 391 principals as part of their professional development. Six RMS dimensions (clusters of competencies) were used to predict a principal's high-potential promise and promotion to partner three to five years later. Findings -The results support hypotheses detailing how different rater groups assess PSPs differently, and how these differences are relevant to PSP promotion to partner. The predictability of becoming partner increased by 50 percent compared to partner-only assessments through the use of direct report assessments of the principals' leadership and coaching, peer assessments of collaboration, and client assessments of trust. Practical implications -Professional service firms can improve their succession planning and promotion decisions by including multirater assessments in their decision making process; PSPs can guide their career planning and professional development by attending to the distinct competency interests of different stakeholders. Originality/value -This article supports a broader use of different rater group assessments in promotion decisions and the career development of professionals. It suggests the need for dialogue and research regarding when different rater assessments in 360-degree assessment tools are an index of instrument validity.
