This course is open to professionals interested in learning more about leadership in higher education for a changing demographic or interested in developing their own leadership skills.
The very idea that individuals can be taught to lead is not without its skeptics.
Reasonable people, even some scholars in the field, point to the important traits, skills, and attributes that are observed in many visible leaders and contend that certain qualities necessary for effective leadership are not easily transmitted.
To accept this premise and conclude that some people are born as natural leaders and others cannot be expected to lead at all is to make a mistake at the other end of the logical spectrum.
We believe that leadership can be taught as long as it is concurrently nurtured, that most people possess a constellation of strengths around which they can construct their own leadership philosophy and approach, and that leadership development programming�if done well�can be transformative for organizers and participants.

Team leads, managers, and entrepreneurs must juggle team citizenship and leadership, ethics, strategy, and projects with their work in their area of expertise.

While an individual contributor�s success may depend on their own direct input -- the sweat of their own brow � managers� success depends on their ability to enlist the active involvement of others: direct reports, other managers, other team members, other department employees, and those above them on the organizational chart -- sometimes even their suppliers or customers!
