  Leading and Leveraging Difference --- Difference and diversity impact the bottom line. Leading & Leveraging Difference teaches students formal and informal leadership skills that are essential for working across boundaries in a diverse workplace. By the end of the course, students will have a repertoire of strategies to leverage different perspectives in ways that improve performance. In addition to traditional readings, lectures and discussions, this class uses unique approaches to learning such as feature film analysis, journal entries and an immersion experience. These non-traditional methods stimulate personal development and interpersonal skills related to culture, power, conflict and teamwork.
