Navigating power dynamics in a global team requires cultural awareness, clear communication, inclusive leadership, and fair policies. Understand cultural differences through frameworks like Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions and provide cultural training. Establish open communication channels and hold regular check-ins. Leaders should model respectful behavior and empower team members by giving everyone a chance to lead. Ensure transparent decision-making and equal opportunities for all. For example, Unilever promotes equality through diversity programs, global mentorship, and Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) to foster mutual respect.

Based on my experience it's important to establish the environment where each team member will feel safe to share their ideas and thoughts. As a team leader it's important to rotate leadership roles among the team. This practice helps balance team's dynamics and encourage team members to take on leadership responsibilities giving everyone the opportunity to lead and contribute.
