As our world becomes more complex, global and interconnected, the demands on you as a leader, manager and employee become increasingly challenging.

So, how can you become the best possible leader? Success depends on your ability to engage and interact with others and work together toward a common goal.

This course seeks to build knowledge and skills that can enable and inspire you to most effectively lead and participate in organizational life. In this intensive three weeks of study, we will address these goals by learning about the psychological and sociological foundations of human behavior and building effective individual and managerial skills that can develop you as a leader.

The course aims to inspire you to become a thoughtful, reflective leader and to develop an informed, systematic, and dynamic approach to leading in organizations. Through the use of case studies and class activities, you will develop your practical skills by applying learned theories to real-world organizational problems. Self-discovery exercises will be used to assist you with gaining a sense of your own leadership strengths and potential.
