Abstract


Change is happening at an unprecedented pace across the world. It is truly significant to understand the role of leadership in identifying and understanding the complexities of the multicultural environment for the sustainability and the success of any organization. Leadership plays a critical role in operating on offshore assignments. The integration of these three intelligences, i.e., Cultural Intelligence (CQ), Emotional Intelligence (EQ), Social Intelligence (SQ) can showcase that how some of the individuals are better able to take advantage of a broader array of intelligences further building the same into leadership competence imbibed by leaders operating globally. The aim of this paper is to build an integrative perspective of the various intelligences that can be a quintessential ingredient for managers or transformational leaders to steer any organization successfully. Further, this paper builds a framework to showcase the relationship between CQ, EQ, SQ and transformational leadership in order to educate managers of tomorrow.
