Leadership: Become a Leader Others Want to Follow
Summer 2016 quarter (Session I)
Taught by
One doesn’t need an official title to be a leader – it is possible to effectively lead from anywhere in an organization. In this course we will examine what makes leaders effective and equally important, what makes leaders fail. Recognizing that we must first understand ourselves before we can effectively lead others, this course will include a self-assessment. This self-assessment will help students learn their individual strengths and specific strategies to lead with those strengths. We will differentiate between leaders and managers and explore why both are essential to the success of any organization. We will examine the building blocks of effective leadership: define values and set a vision; build a great team and get results; and inspire and encourage the heart. Our class discussions will be enhanced by guest speakers, including influential and effective leaders in state and local government, and non-profit organizations
