Abstract

Alongside the growing emphasis on global education within higher education is a greater focus on global leadership and global citizenship within leadership education. In this application manuscript the authors provide examples and discussion of how they have used the Emotionally Intelligent Leadership model as a framework for teaching leadership courses focused on intercultural competence and global mindset. Two specific courses are highlighted, and the authors provide their reflections and implications for leadership education.
