I think that the difference could be explained on light of the cultural difference in decision making style. " Informed decision making comes from a long tradition of guessing and then blaming others for inadequate results". ~Scott Adams Neverthless, Globalization creates a need to know how CEO managers in different parts of the world make decisions: Business leaders, globally, have a distinctive prevailing decision style that reflects differences in cultural values and the relative needs for achievement, affiliation, power, and information. The decision making process and value systems influence the overall approach of decision makers from various cultures. The relative level of utilitarianism versus moral idealism in any society affects its overall approach to problems. Generally speaking, utilitarianism strongly guides behavior in the Western world. In fact, research has shown that U.S. executives are more influenced by a short-term, cost-benefit approach to decision making than their Asian counterparts. U.S. managers are considerably more utilitarian than leaders from China, who approach problems from a standpoint of moral idealism; they consider the problems, alternatives, and solutions from a long-term, societal perspective rather than an individual perspective. Another important variable in companies’ overall approach to decision making is that of autocratic versus participative leadership. In other words, who has the authority to make what kinds of decisions? A country’s orientation whether it is individualistic or collectivist influences the level at which decisions are made. In many countries with hierarchical cultures: Germany, Turkey, and India, among others, the authorization for action has to be passed upward through echelons of management before final decisions can be made. Most employees in these countries simply expect the autocrat, the boss, to do most of the decision making and would not be comfortable otherwise. Even in China, which is a highly collectivist society, employees expect autocratic leadership because their value system presupposes the manager to be automatically, ‘the most wise’. In comparison, in the Scandinavian countries, decision making authority is decentralized and built on consensus. Americans talk a lot about the advisability of participative leadership, but in practice they are probably around the middle between autocratic and participative management styles. A country’s culture affects how fast or slow decisions tend to be made. The pace at which decisions are made can be very disconcerting for outsiders. North Americans and Europeans pride themselves on being decisive; managers in the Middle East, with a different sense of temporal urgency, associate the importance of the matter at hand with the length of time needed to make a decision. For example, a hasty American would insult a Middle East customer by pushing for a quick decision; it would reflect a low regard for the relationship and the deal. Under the European model, decision making is typically done in groups reaching consensus, rather than by single manager commands.

Accordingly to my view, following are the noticeable points on this query.

1-        Impact of  Globalization reduced major difference in Language, Culture, Educations, Results and prompt feedbacks.

2-        Easy and simple reach of advanced knowledge with help the of highly developed Internet technology, Global Forums and Groups.

3-        “Everyone knows everything” strategy is highly applied on the International business groups and among business Leaders.

4-        International training through webinars and 24 hours training centers from various International Universities made a slight difference in between or among Continents.

5-        Global MOU and JV among Multinational Companies made more easy to avoid major difference among CEO”s due to similar growth strategies for all CEO’s.

 

In fact, I can’t noticed major difference on this modern time.

I think between CEO Europe and CEO of Gulf & Middle East , basically has the duty and responsibility of the same. Also parts of the continent. What is different is the core business , human resources , work culture . If both are combined , there must be equating the company's vision and mission . Main its goal is to become a leading company, and produces pruduk with high quality to consumers as pertner business at competitive prices , as well as produce a satisfactory profit
