ORGL 331 - Theories and Practices of Leadership


Students will encounter the question, “What does leadership have to do with the liberal arts?” Through the systematic study of individual, group, and organizational behaviors and processes, students will explore answers to this question. The course will integrate the arts, humanities, and social science disciplines, using texts, weekly field trips, and case studies from various types of organizations. We will explore leadership from several different perspectives including: leadership and personal integrity; leadership and paradigm shifts; reframing organizations; and systems thinking. Topics include the structure of organizations, the values and culture of organizations, motivation, leadership, power, cooperation, decision-making, and organizational change.

Pre-req: Junior standing or one introductory SOC or BSAD course.
