WMST 201 - Gender and Leadership

Institution:

Alfred University

Subject:

Women's Studies

Description:

In this course, members of the Women's Leadership Academy explore leadership theory and issues of gender and leadership. We examine questions such as: what qualities make an effective leader, why are so few women in leadership roles in certain professions, and what might feminist theory or chaos theory have to do with leadership? We approach these questions from both a personal and academic perspective. Participants assess their own leadership style and develop a personal philosophy of leadership. Class assignments include team-building activities and attendance at skill-building workshops. Prerequisite: Membership in the Women's Leadership Academy and instructor's permission.
