What about cultural differences?

I will start with our commonality as humans, before addressing differences between various cultures. Perhaps more links us together than separates us, particularly as children.

In my own experience, I've noticed that adult leadership styles differ in Europe, China, Japan and the USA. But this blog is about teaching children leadership skills, so perhaps the fundamentals are more similar than different. I'll add to this idea as I learn more about differences in other countries and cultures. Please share your multicultural perspectives so we can all learn about this.

Although cultural norms vary in many places, I'd suggest that the children in these places are already learning how to navigate their cultural norms. The question is how does their local norms impact efforts to teach them leadership?
