SOC-212: Leadership in Diverse Communities and Organizations

The purpose of Leadership in Diverse Communities and Organizations is to examine and assess the intricacies of traditional leadership praxis and the complexity of leading non-traditional organizations. While the course addresses traditional leadership theories, it also identifies innovative theories and approaches that acknowledge and value the multiplicity of social capital all shareholders bring to an organization. Additionally, the sociological perspective is employed to enable students to critically view their own lived experiences as framework from which to critically assess issues of equity and privilege.
