Abstract: Abstract As the world becomes more volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA), we require integral global leadership practices for our fast-changing new realities. This chapter provides an overarching framework for understanding global leadership, that is, a holistic approach to addressing wicked problems of our VUCA times based on regenerative practices. It defines planetary health as the overarching framework. It delineates concrete ways to enhance leadership and followership practice as shared leadership responsibility and a collectivist consciousness to support the health, well-being, and success of all. For this objective, it explores how to integrate the interpersonal/subjective, intercultural, and organizational, and the macro-level social, political, and economical or international levels using the Integral Theory AQAL model. The chapter argues that it is imperative to first understand how to enhance and align self-leadership. It maintains that awareness before practice must be informed through this overarching framework and these perspectives. The key focus in these arguments, therefore, is bringing awareness to how inextricably linked global leadership is to the concept of planetary health that must encompass an appreciation of and attuning to the different spheres for transformation to occur sustainably.
