Chapter 11 response

It is natural for different cultures to have different views on leadership. When you ask a classroom full of kids from St. Norbert who have come from similar backgrounds, you would get a lot of different answers as well. You could conduct the same survey just for a portion of the state of Wisconsin and get completely different answers. And that is just WI! Imagine the entire world.

Different cultures teach, develop, and form different leaders and different types of leaders. Cultures can vary by extremes in places you go. Societal demands change the way you live. We live in America and are lucky to have the freedoms we have.

Each culture has a different lifestyle, demands, expectations, etc. Because of these variables, what they define as leadership will vary as well. Some people in the professional world look at leadership completely different than someone who has to scrounge for food every night to feed their family. Different people/cultures face so many different challenges. Not only leadership, but all aspects of life will be different based on cultural changes.
