Jenkins Leadership Challenge

Section: 631

Course Description

Leadership skills are highly valued in today's business environment. This is the capstone course for the Jenkins MBA Leadership Certificate. In other classes in the leadership series, students have learned what a successful leader is, what a successful leader does, and how a successful leader deals with contingencies in an effective way. In this class participants will review the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership and select behaviors in their own leadership practice that need to be adjusted for stronger leadership performance. Students will then plan and execute a personal leadership challenge to address these behaviors. Course content includes a leadership assessment, lectures and readings, required participation in group coaching, periodic individual reflections, development of videos for leadership challenge proposals and testimonials, and a final paper that reflects on the student's journey through the leadership program and identifies plans for the future.
