• Leadership is very personal. The leaders core competencies must include his or her ability to communicate, to inspire others, to lead an ethical decision making process toward ethical outcomes, to lead in a diverse world, to influence others, and negotiate with others. The leader must be able to build effective teams for the purposes of making decisions and executing those decisions. The leader must consider the values that drive her or his decisions.
  • This concentration is built around the core course, MOB 3512, Leadership, which focuses on the person of the leader and the tasks of leadership. Students then choose two or three related courses from management. These courses will help the student build a leadership tool kit for the future. Students also have the option of taking one course from a list of related offerings from other fields that will allow the student to explore different applications and perspectives on leadership.
  • This list of related offerings includes courses from Strategic Management, Entrepreneurship, Marketing and History and Society. In addition to standing on its own, the Leadership concentration also supports concentrations in the full range of business disciplines. Each student interested in the Leadership concentration will ideally set up a specific plan that meets his or her needs.
