MGMT 507 - Leadership Principles

This course will survey leadership in an attempt to define a useful framework for students to use in their work and personal lives. Because leadership is such an interesting and subjective concept, we will examine historical and contemporary models and practices, extending our search into the impact of leadership on work unit climate, creativity, and corporate ethics. We will use articles, movie segments, recordings of speeches, and other experiential activities to access new perspectives of how to be a leader. Each student will be required to develop a personal statement of leadership as a major outcome of the class.
