Leadership in Thailand and Australia Project

Hi Everyone,

Leadership is a complex phenomenon that has been widely researched and has been defined in a variety of ways. Yukl (2002) identifies leadership as "the process of influencing others to understand and agree about what needs to be done and how it can be done effectively."

Personally, I see leadership as the process of facilitating individual and collective efforts to accomplish the shared objectives. Having established this concept, the project will focus on how to create shared value through means of leadership. I am interested in leadership styles in comparing Australian and Thai leadership styles and will design the project that support this concept among the participants.

If you are interested in leadership, please feel free to discuss your idea with me and I think we can develop some interesting points of discussion.
