TNDY 407J - Leader Development

This course is designed to teach students about the theory and application of leader development, which is defined as increasing an individual leader’s capacity to be effective in a leadership role. Students will have the opportunity to learn about the existing research on leader development, including various approaches and methods. Students will also have the chance to see these methods in action as they investigate and evaluate a leader development program at an organization of their choosing. Finally, as an additional illustration of the leader development process, students will experience these methods first-hand as they participate in classroom activities, weekly reflections, 360-degree feedback assessments, and craft their own leader development plans.
