OML-6200 Organizational Management and Leadership II

This course focuses on how skills and abilities in leadership and management can be developed and applied by individuals in order to make a difference in organizations, communities, or societies. The course looks first at exemplary leaders, both those who are well known and national or international in their scope (e.g., Robert Kennedy, John F. Kennedy, Bill Clinton, Mohandas Gandhi) and those who are not well known (e.g., everyday people who have exercised moral leadership or community leadership), all with special consideration of the moral aspects of effective leadership in several different contexts. It then looks at how individuals can develop leadership and act with authenticity, integrity, and creativity, all with special consideration of exercising leadership as a 'whole person' who must balance responsibilities to home, work, and community. Ultimately, the course is intended to help students become more effective leaders in contexts where they currently serve or in contexts to which they aspire. The course is based in the belief that leadership involves moral/ethical dimensions and that effective leadership equals good leadership; that is, that it includes service to others and to contexts beyond the self as well as qualities such as authenticity and integrity.

Note: This course builds upon ORG-5020: Leadership and Management in the 21st Century, although that course is not a prerequisite to OML-6200. While there is some overlap in content between the two, OML-6200 has a far greater emphasis on application and skill development than ORG-5020.

OML-6300 Contemporary Issues in Leadership

This course focuses on compelling issues in leadership theory and practice. It is intended to present students with some of the latest and most innovative thinking about leadership and to promote practical insights for leadership within work and community settings. The course encourages students to look beyond embedded leadership ideas and practices and to consider leadership more broadly. Students cover the topics of leaders and followers (toxic leadership), men and women (gender in leadership), and individuals and teams (team leadership). Students are invited to rethink their orientation to leadership and human interaction and to apply their learning to a real-world setting.

Note: This course follows naturally from the foundations laid in OML-6100: Organizational Management and Leadership I and in OML-6200: Organizational Management and Leadership II. The three courses together form a logical sequence that moves from a general exploration of theory and practice in OML-6100, to a focus on leading and managing self in OML-6200 and, finally, to a focus on contemporary leadership issues in OML-6300: Contemporary Issues in Leadership. While these courses present a comprehensive look at management, OML-6100 and OML-6200 are not prerequisites for OML-6300, which can be taken as an individual course that provides exploration and focus on contemporary leadership issues and practices.
