Abstract: Abstract Inclusive leadership has recently become an active topic in the literature on leadership and in the field of organizational behavior. However, there is currently a lack of consensus regarding whether the younger generation of inclusive leaders perceive and behave differently from the older generation. This study seeks to determine the traits, characteristics, attitudes, and behaviors of young inclusive Thai leaders who today play an increasingly influential role in various sectors of the Thai economy. The ultimate intent is to develop a theoretical framework for young inclusive leadership. Building on relational leadership theory and adopting the framework of Kouzes and Posner’s Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI) and Hollander’s 4Rs of Inclusive Leadership, the authors use interviews with 12 young Thai leaders to classify the crucial attributes of young inclusive Thai leaders into five categories: role model, luminary, pioneer, motivator, and nurturer. These attributes reflect how young leaders express their inclusiveness in conjunction with relational, entrepreneurial, and transformational leadership and serve as the basis for a holistic framework for young inclusive leadership.
