As each generation has its own values, beliefs, and expectations, their leadership preferences pose new challenges for organizations. In this chapter, leadership approaches are discussed, and the differences and similarities among preferred generational leadership styles are examined. The purpose of this chapter is to determine an appropriate leadership style that meets the needs of all generations, and globally responsible inter-generational leadership has been suggested as the most effective approach.EnglishLeadershipIntergenerational leadershipLeadership approachesGlobally responsible intergenerational leadershipBook Chapter10.4018/978-1-5225-8003-4.ch00710.4018/978-1-5225-8003-497815225800412326-9030
