MGMT 760 - Leadership Development

Credit Hours 3
The first responsibility of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say thank you. In between, the leader is a servant (Max De Pree). Leadership is one of the most studied topics in all social sciences and yet, remains one of the least understood. This seminar is intended to steer students towards a lifelong, self-directed learning path in leadership and self-development. In this course, students will learn about different leadership styles and practice. They will develop proficiency to evaluate readings and research in order to gain insight into the role of leadership in organizations, the challenges of being a leader, and the importance of leadership on other people’s work and personal lives. New frontiers in the study of leadership, such as caring, positive and relational leadership, will be also discussed together with the most establish paradigms in leadership literature. This seminar will be taught in a non-traditional format and will utilize tools to facilitate experiential and evidence-based learning. Only students who are proactive, motivated, and energized by learning should apply for enrolling in this seminar.
