  A common complaint about organizations today is that there is not enough leadership. Organizations spend millions developing it and new managers want to understand and develop it. Indeed, leadership is an increasingly important skill in today's flatter, more amorphous organizations. These kinds of organizations, in turn, may demand new and more artful forms of leadership. This course offers an extensive examination of the nature of leadership in organizations, with an emphasis on self-understanding and learning with an emphasis on both a theoretical and practical understanding of leadership.
