Connerley (Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State U.) and Pedersen (Syracuse U.) address leading in a diverse environment with a culture-centered approach, and examine multicultural awareness, knowledge, and skills training through a three-stage developmental sequence as a primary strategy in leadership. Parts of the text are based on Pedersen's Handbook for Developing Multicultural Awareness, Third Ed. (American Counseling Assoc., 2000). Suitable as a supplemental text for undergraduate- and graduate-level international management, leadership, or diversity-related courses in the business curriculum, and for leadership courses taught in education and communication departments.
