Abstract

To better prepare the educators who will guide students into their global future, educational leadership programs have become more focused on developing globally competent students who are not only more marketable, but who are also better prepared to make positive contributions to a global society. This chapter portrays that cross institutions in America there is a need to prepare students more adequately for the challenges of an increased global workforce. In the chapters, we follow the experiences of two scholars as they progressed through their development of becoming intercultural responsive educators by means of a study abroad program. From this experience, reflection questions encompass self-reflection about global perspectives. Also, interactions of others who hold various interests, values, and perspectives as they related to their growth in leadership. Situational leadership as a part of a critical skill set will also be examined.
