Instructors: Dr. Nicholas Salter (Psychology) and Dr. Rebecca Natow (Specialized Programs in Education)
This course will introduce students to leadership theories and practice from an interdisciplinary perspective. Students will learn leadership theories, the history of leadership analysis, leadership in different practice contexts (education, government, nonprofits, the corporate sector, etc.), and research on leadership approaches. Theoretical perspectives include industrial models, transformational leadership, servant leadership, and social change theory, among others. Additionally, approaches to leadership across different industries — from the corporate sector to non-profits to educational institutions — will be compared. The course will draw from multiple fields of leadership literature, including organizational psychology, education, and public policy. The goal of the course will be for the students to not only understand how different areas define leadership, but also how it manifests and is applied across different contexts.
