Abstract
Women who serve in intercultural leadership roles encounter a multitude of complex issues that create potential barriers to effective gospel-centered leadership. Factors that influence these issues are globalization, conflicting cultural frameworks, expectations around gender norms, and others. Additionally, the experiences of women currently serving in intercultural contexts can provide perspective and insight into the global leadership process. Identifying, accessing, and utilizing creative bridges to address the intricacies of intercultural leadership is key to the success of any woman wanting to have a global impact.
