Course Description
The objective of this class is to enhance students' understanding of what makes leaders effective in organizational settings. Most definitions of leadership suggest that effective leaders are those that: influence a group of individuals to achieve a common goal; improve the performance and attitudes of employees; motivate people to perform above and beyond the call of duty; and enhance organizational effectiveness. In this class, we will define leadership and leader effectiveness; explore the characteristics that influence leaders to emerge and be more effective; and identify the leader behaviors that research has found to be the most effective.
