Cultural understanding and knowledge about cultural diversity are becoming crucial skills in managing people and business processes within the global framework. The capacity to solve the problem of diversity, to create and lead global teams and to develop cultural diversity present a significant part of the skills required from global leaders and managers. In this sense, analysis of the previously mentioned skills in global leaders and managers presents one of the most important components of modern research in the field of management. Having in mind their great importance for global company functioning, we emphasize the most important aspects of developing these skills in this paper.
