Business to Diplomacy: The Complexity of Leadership

Diplomacy is critically important in leadership as it influences the leader’s ability to effectively navigate the complexities of not only international relations but also tactical, organizational, and strategic business operations. Dr Andrew Campbell is the Director of the International Peace and Leadership Institute and Director of the Global Leadership Education Institute. As a critically acclaimed author, international speaker, and leadership researcher, he blends global leadership, organizational leadership, international conflict management and terrorism, and emotional intelligence to show that business leadership is missing diplomacy as a key ingredient and that diplomats require leadership knowledge, skills, and abilities to lead in resolving international tensions. Dr. Campbell postulates that both business leaders and diplomatic leaders possess the same diverse range of competencies, including effective communication, negotiation, strategic thinking, adaptability, cultural intelligence, emotional intelligence, conflict resolution, empathy, networking, and ethical conduct. Dr Campbell provides an innovative approach to learning and leadership development that are instrumental in both business and diplomacy. The world community needs business leaders with diplomacy skills as well as diplomats who lead with high character and act ethically when advancing the interests of business as well as the nation's foreign policy objectives within an interconnected world. The foundation of real leadership is built on character and the life one leads not on the role one plays.
