GEN ST 348: *Leadership from the Inside Out* Term A: MTWTh, 12:40 pm-3:20 pm, SLN#11632 (5 credits), Instructor: Francesca Lo, franlo@uw.edu Over the past twenty years, a revolution has occurred in the way leadership is conceptualized across most fields and disciplines. The concept of leadership has moved from being leader-centered, individualistic, hierarchical, focused on universal characteristics, and highlighting power over followers to a new vision where leadership is process centered, collective, context bound, nonhierarchical, and focused on mutual power and influence. This summer intensive class offers a highly experiential opportunity to guide you in incorporating cutting-edge leadership theories and knowledge into your own style of working with and leading others. We will explore intrapersonal, interpersonal, organizational andtransitional leadership skills needed for socially responsible leadership.
