KW  - charismatic leader
KW  -  global leadership quality
N2  - This paper attempts to discuss global leadership qualities of future leaders. Although leaders need to acquire specific skills, perform several functions and take on numerous roles, the focus of this paper will be on the qualities of good leaders. 
Peter Drucker, the guru of American management defines a "leader" as "some who has followers" and that an "effective leader is not someone who is loved and admired but someone whose followers do the right things. Popularity is not leadership. Results are". 
In the world of today, where society is constantly pelted with technological jargon like telemedicine, genetic engineering, virtual education, cyber technology, high-tech, cloning; and a myriad of other pompous words like global economy, World class education, knowledge explosion, k-economy, E-commerce, borderless world, E-Q, outsourcing and the like; it is highly essential that leaders of today and the future equip themselves with the necessary knowledge, information and skills pertaining to the requirements and demands of the technology-savvy society. 
The age-old traditional concept of "getting-by" is no longer applicable. World class leaders have to keep abreast with the demands of changing times. 
The learned, who thinks the world of himself refuses to change, hence he will be left behind. He will suffer as the world changes. Therefore, leaders cannot be "inward-looking", anymore. They must be "outward-looking, crossing borders by creating win-win strategic partnerships for the betterment of those in their organization.
