• LDRS 200

Effective leadership is important to everyone throughout society and is much more situational and complex than a “position”. Discovering Leadership is an introductory course for all students seeking to broaden their understanding of the leadership process in modern organizations and communities, even for those who may not seek or desire formal leadership positions. Students will explore the multidisciplinary nature of leadership as firmly rooted in social science. They will develop leadership dispositions- the mental habits one uses to see, think about and respond to the world - at the individual, team, and organizational level by using design principles to create a “leadership future”, and will explore leadership practices, perspectives and research across cultures in order to understand leadership at a societal level.
