leadership in Australia is affected in different ways by the cultural diversity in many

workplace interrelations (Al-Jenaibi, 2017).

communications in an organization and leadership, gender barriers, language barriers and
cultural barriers are the single most common barriers that affect communication. Australia

In this article the authors Martin and Nakayama discusses on organizations and their
leaders, as one might expect, have values that exist in the culture of a given society. The
predominance of private firms in the United States and the reluctance of the Japanese
manager to dismiss a worker under any circumstances are patterns of behavior that accurately
reflect the social values of the society concerned (Sorrells, 2015). The research question is
focused on a larger society, an organization seeks to have its own morals, customs, and
taboos. In the end, in many organizations, individuals are formed, reflecting individualized
ways of doing business or specific cases. Their research focus In Australia, for example,
among some social groups there is a change in attitude towards the quality of life as a value,
which is opposed to loyalty to the firm. For example, some employees they may refuse to be
transferred to the service, because the cost of living in a new locality is unacceptable for their
standard of living or due to family circumstances (Malyuga, & Tomalin, 2017). In
conclusion, top executives can understand and support these new values, or they may strive to
maintain more traditional value standards. The main limitation is to imagine how difficult it
is to adapt to the values of a completely new society for you. This article will be influential

Leadership influence in intercultural communication
Yusof, N., Kaur, A., & Cheah Lynn-Sze, J. (2017). Post graduate students insights into
understanding intercultural communication in global workplaces. Innovations in Education
and Teaching International, 1-11.
In the article Yusof el al discuses the problems of the influence of leadership style on
the psychological climate in a team. Effective team management involves the creation of a
healthy environment in a team with high performance and is directly dependent on the
management style chosen by the leader. The degree of professionalism of a manager is
determined by the style of his managerial activity (Martin, & Nakayama, 2015). The
relationship between the leader and subordinates, the psychological climate of the team, and
the result of the work of the team directly depend on the management style implemented by
the leader (Varner, & Varner, 2014).
Problems of leadership style and psychological climate have been considered by
many researchers, and the problem of the influence of one factor on another has been given
very little attention in the research literature. Problems of the psychological climate and
management styles in their work considered: The problem of the influence of leadership style
on interpersonal relations and the psychological climate in the team is relevant, as we
encounter it every day, fulfilling our work duties in the workplace.
By leadership style, we mean a set of specific ways and methods by which managers
interact with the team. Under the psychological climate, we understand the totality of social
and psychological factors affecting the life of the team, its productivity and the nature of
interpersonal relations. The great importance of leadership style is determined by the fact that
it performs one of the main functions for the manager - improving and organizing the

effectiveness of the entire team (Yusof, Kaur, & Cheah Lynn-Sze, 2017). Therefore, It is also
possible to observe the significance of the favorable psychological climate of a collective as
an indicator of the effectiveness of a manager, on the moral character and adequacy of the
management style of which the productivity of the activity of this collective largely depends.
Accordingly, the psychological climate with such a leader will be unfavorable, perhaps even
have a negative character. This article will be influential in supplementary for my research
and pay structure.
Conclusion
Perception is very important, because it determines what “reality” is for a particular
individual. People react not to what is really happening in their environment, but to what they
perceive as really happening. There are no two people who could perceive something exactly
the same. Differences in the perception of the same stimulus are sometimes simply
overwhelming.
