Leadership. 3 credits

Catalog description

In this course, we focus on theoretical and practical expressions of effective leaders in today’s organizations. In addition to a review of historical theories and leaders, students will have opportunities to explore their leadership styles and behaviors, learn how to modify them (as needed), and how to apply them effectively in various environments and situations. We will use a variety of mechanisms to achieve course objectives, including class discussions of text and other course materials, in-class experiential exercises (e.g., cases, self- assessments, skill-building exercises, role-plays), online forums, and cases to facilitate students’ understanding of relevant theory and acquisition/enhancement of leadership skills.Offered by SBUS Multidisciplinary.
