I feel it is the norm in Scandinavia.

The word leadership is “lederskap” in Norway/Scandinavia.

Leder => Leader

Skap => Closet (where the leader should be when everything is OK)

Leaderless teams / self organising teams

It's a huge topic in the study of management

One German guy that moved 15 years ago to Boston. One Englishman that is currently in China. One German-Brazilian guy that is a Jew and a UK citizen, working in Hong Kong. One Romanian. Quite rare in my experience, but they exist.

Disagree - some of the best managers I have ever had were in France. Some of them were even French!
