The purpose of this paper is to identify that factors that affect Korean college students’ global leadership competencies and to provide programme and curriculum developers with pertinent meaningful suggestions. Relations between the number of and the duration of global leadership education sessions as well as the number of and the duration of international experiences and their perceived impact on global leadership competencies were examined in a sample of 234 college students. The regression analyses revealed that the number of international experiences was the only factor that predicted global leadership competencies. Higher numbers of international experiences were related to higher levels of global leadership competencies. However, the duration of international experience was not significantly related to global leadership competencies. Additionally, none of the global leadership education-related variables had an impact on global leadership competencies. The study results suggest that college students should participate more frequently in high-quality global activities rather than simply living abroad for long periods. Some ideas for future global leadership programmes are also suggested. © 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
