HWC 572 - Leadership for Social Change
Leadership is widely understood as a critical success factor for advancing social change. In this class, students are educated to develop advanced leadership skills to create and sustain social-change organizations that address societal inequities. The course covers the many facets of social change leadership, including effective communication, strategic planning, and program development. The course will consider what it means to be a leader, the kinds of skills leaders need to succeed in diverse community settings, and what are the necessary preconditions for social change. Additional focus will be on anti-oppressive organizational and program development, management, resource development and financial management. Specific focus will be devoted to providing students with opportunities to develop their presentation and analysis skills and to receive peer feedback.
