We need a new generation of leaders and game-changers. The notion of leadership that once resonated with greatness no longer inspires new dreams, compelling visions, and revolutionary actions. The unethical behavior, self-indulging decisions, and ego-driven conduct of many contemporary leaders have eroded society’s trust in corporate, public, and political leaders. There is an urgent need for principled and purpose-driven leaders who are driven by a set of universal virtues, a strong moral compass, and a deep desire to serve a global society and a sustainable world. This course teaches students critical concepts and skills to examine their passion and purpose, develop vision, mission, values, and a plan of action to serve their communities. This course provides students with the opportunity to reflect, collaborate, and learn through individual and group activities including self-evaluation, cases, discussions and seminars, and projects.

This class is an online course, with learning activities completed through Canvas and class meetings conducted via Zoom on Saturdays. 

This course is one of three core courses that comprise the Transformative Leadership Certificate. Courses can be taken in any order.
