EDD 8058 Applied Leadership
Practicing leadership is providing vision and direction, modeling good exemplars, and doing what is needed for people in the organization to succeed. Leadership practice is also an art in knowing what to do and when to do it, why you do it, and how to do it. The purpose of this course is to explore best practices that have been identified to assist in the establishment of organizations. Strong leadership practices entail fostering continuous improvement and rethinking the connections in the relationships of stakeholders through the formation of problem-solving teams. The linkage among stakeholders is encouraged and emphasized as a result of evidence-based examination of best practices.
