EMP 501 - Leadership

In this course, we review current and classic concepts and theories in leading in engineering contexts. We examine leadership at different levels: leading groups and teams, leading projects, and leading complex organizations. We consider seminal questions in leadership studies including: What are the differences between managing and leading? How do leadership styles interact for effective leadership? How do leaders build community in their organizations? And we review several practical concerns of leadership, including leading change, leading in diverse contexts, and leader succession planning.
