Abstract
Internationalization and globalization have made organizations not to escape hiring professionals from different cultures. In the modern world, leaders should be ready to deal with people from different cultures. Leadership in cross-cultural working environment has become complex since some leaders do not know what they are doing and how they have to do it. This research attempts to enrich the understanding of Leaders in cross-cultural organizations. The exploratory study consists of 9 different leaders of an organization with different culture and background. These leaders belonged to different countries and with team members of multicultural people. The respondents represent top private educational institutions in Malaysia. Few of them are academic staff and few are non-academic staffs but all of them are holding managerial positions leading team in the same organization that consists of multi-cultural background. The findings from the study lead to the proposition that it is important to apply the four dimensions of culture as depicted by Professor Hofstede. These include analyzing the power distance, individualism, uncertainty avoidance and masculinity of other societies.
