SECOND LEADERSHIP YEAR

The second year of Leadership Fellows includes two 1 credit leadership development courses. The courses are designed to provide students with the historical, theoretical, and practical everyday life perspectives of leadership, as well as engage students in fully exploring themselves and their leadership style. This is accomplished through lecture/discussion format and small group experiential activities. The course objectives are:

• To understand the historical and theoretical practice of leadership;
• To develop a personal awareness of leadership ability and receive feedback from others about their      perceptions of your leadership effectiveness;
• To consider the ethical responsibilities of leadership;
• To explore critical thinking and decision making strategies;
• To gain an understanding of team development and conflict resolution;
• To understand and apply diversity into leadership; and
• To expand the conception of leadership and learn to apply theories of leadership to everyday practice.
