LDS 398 - Leadership Learning & Execution (3 )

UG

The fundamental question we will ask in this course is, “How does one grow wise as a leader?” This course will explore the wisdom literature from Scripture, academic literature on wisdom, best practices for effective mentoring and coaching, and how to skillfully execute strategic plans–all with the objective of preparing students to put their leadership training into practice. This will happen in three ways: 1. Honing the skills of mentoring and coaching, 2. Clarifying the relationship between individual learning, organizational learning, and skillful execution of strategic plans, and 3. Giving students the opportunity to practice effective mentoring–both working with a mentor and mentoring others.
