LEAD 200: The Leadership Challenge
This course offers a systematic approach to understanding leadership theory. In addition students will learn about the modes of leadership behavior which encourage followers; methods to develop a shared vision; processes to strategically create change; and ways to encourage ethical behavior. The course has several learning objectives: 1) Students will be able to define and explain leadership theories; 2) Students will develop an ethical framework for leadership; and 3) Students will analyze effective leadership strategies for encouraging followership.
These learning objectives support the following program objectives of the LEAD major:
1) Accommodate individual differences when making purposeful decisions required of a leader. The course emphasis on followership requires that students understand and appreciate diversity; and 2) Reference leadership theory and practices when designing strategies to address leadership issues. This course emphasizes the need to understand the theoretical bases of leadership as a prelude to practicing effective leadership.
LEAD 300: Leadership, Innovation and Creativity
The course emphasizes creativity theory and research, models of innovation, and the application of leadership to foster innovation. The nature and nurture of creative thinking as a precursor to effective organizational leadership and innovation underlies the course. The course learning objectives specify that students will be able to: 1) Understand the nature of creativity in research, theory, and practice; 2) Explore and recognize the characteristics of innovation in organizations; 3) Understand the role of leadership in creating conditions for innovation, at both the individual and organizational system levels; and 4) Enhance their ability to think creatively, and apply that creative thinking strategically. These learning objectives support the following program objectives of the LEAD major: 1) Combine creative and critical thinking skills within the framework of leadership teambuilding for effectively contributing to problem-solving. This course emphasizes the balance between leadership and management in the applied sense of creativity and applied innovation. Further, a problem-solving framework is central to both leadership activity and creative thinking and behavior; 2) Reference leadership theory and practices when designing strategies to address leadership issues. This course focuses on a specific human disposition (creativity) and its application (innovation), all within the context of a leadership program. Key to the success of students in this course will be efforts to regularly tie creativity and innovation back into relevant leadership theory and effective practice.
LEAD 400: Leadership for the Common Good
This course emphasizes direct action organizing, coalition
building, and consensus organizing as strategies for mobilizing people to
create positive change within contexts of social responsibility,
sustainability, collaborations, and multisector interactions. The course
learning objectives specify that students will be able to: 1) Analyze
complex societal problems from multiple viewpoints; 2)
evaluate current strategies for mobilizing others; and 3) develop individual
capacity to organize others to action. These learning objectives support the
following program objectives of the LEAD major: 1) Reference leadership theory and practices when designing strategies to
address leadership issues; 2) Understand the inter-sectoral collaboration
necessary to address and resolve complex societal problems that call for
effective leadership and followership; and 3) Accommodate individual
differences when making purposeful decisions required of a leader.
Explain, when appropriate, how this
new/revised curriculum supports the 10 goals of undergraduate education
LEAD 200: The Leadership Challenge supports General Education Goal #4: “Engage questions of ethics and recognize responsibilities to self, community, and society at large.” In this course, students will be acquainted with the challenge of ethical leadership for the purpose of advancing positive change for individuals, communities, organizations and societies. As part of this course, students will develop an ethical framework for leadership.
LEAD 300: Leadership, Innovation and Creativity supports the following general education goals. #5: “Understand the diverse ways of thinking that underlie the search for knowledge in the arts, humanities, sciences, and social sciences.” Course content facilitates the development of conceptualizing effective leadership activity by expanding understanding of underlying theory. As a multidisciplinary field, exploring leadership includes appreciating the contribution (and perspective) of many disciplines. #8: “Expand understanding and appreciation of human creativity and diverse forms of aesthetic and intellectual expression.” Course content focuses on the nature and nurture of human creativity as a key attribute of effectively leading self, others, and organization.
LEAD 400: Leadership for the Common Good supports the following general education goals.
#4: “Engage questions of ethics and recognize
responsibilities to self, community, and society
at large.” Students are exposed to various organizing strategies and to the
need for
community involvement and action. Both present to the student the need to
understand their bottom-line regarding values and ethics and how they will use
them in order to advance community purposes. #7: “Develop the ability to
integrate academic knowledge with experiences that extend the boundaries of the
classroom.” The students are required in the course to become engaged in the
problems of communities and to work with community partners in the voluntary
sector. #9: “Understand the foundations of

the proposed program change(s):
The proposed changes for the major arise from internal
