Competency and Leadership Evaluation of Leaders' in the Context of Difference Between Intercultural Workers

Dear colleagues,

I am a 4th year student at Vilnius University, in the Business and Management program, writing my Bachelor's thesis on the topic: "Competency and Leadership Evaluation of Leaders' in the Context of Difference Between Intercultural Workers ("Michael Kors" Organisation Example)". Through this survey, I aim to understand how the company's intercultural workers evaluate their leaders' competency and leadership at the "Michael Kors" organisation. The data from this survey will be completely generalized and confidential, and your identity or position at this company will remain anonymous. I would greatly appreciate it if you could take 10 minutes to complete this survey and share your opinion, as it would assist me in completing my university dissertation. Thank you in advance!

Kind regards,

Fausta
