MGMT 4810  - Seminar in Advanced Leadership

This is primarily an online course but will be combined with a 3-hour Zoom session one night a week. The course will take students through a deep and introspective consideration of the following questions and issues related to leadership: (1) What are the values and character traits needed to be an effective leader? (2) How can people assess and develop the requisite competencies and attributes for effective leadership? (3) How can leaders best use power to influence and motivate followers to engage with their “hearts, minds and souls” through a compelling mission, vision and purpose? (4) And finally, what is the connection between leadership, character, company culture and a business’s potential competitive advantage?
