MIE 519 Think and Do: The Leadership Challenge
Leadership skills are highly valued in today's business environment. This is a capstone course for the Business Leadership Certificate. In other classes in the leadership series, students have learned what a successful leader is, what a successful leader does, and how a successful leader deals with contingencies in an effective way. In this class participants review the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership and select behaviors in their own leadership practice that need to be adjusted for stronger leadership performance. Students then plan and execute a personal leadership challenge to address these behaviors. Course content includes a leadership assessment, lectures and readings, required participation in group coaching, periodic individual reflections, development of videos for leadership challenge proposals and testimonials, and a final paper that reflects on the student's leadership journey and identifies plans for the future.
Typically offered in Fall and Spring
