Developing the Strategic Leader

Starting with the fall 2009 term, this course will be renumbered as LDR 6140.

Effective leaders look within and beyond their organizations to determine the right direction for action. Leadership capability extends beyond operational excellence; it requires an appreciation of the external environment and its impact on the organization. A common gap in leadership competence of today's administrators and managers is the ability to consider the role of the organization within its wider technologic, competitive, and economic environment. This course will build participant strategic thinking skills through case analyses of relevant businesses and institutions. Based on these analyses, students will develop recommendations for their own organizations' success and actions they can take to influence strategic change.

There are no current sections scheduled for this course number.
