The Leadership Challenge: Leading in a connected, innovating world This course studies the emerging contexts for leadership - key attributes and skills, key development points, and key actions. Leadership will be discussed in changing contexts such as agile/lean environments, emerging technology such as mobility, big data, and global issues. Other topics include decision making under uncertainty, leadership and followership, acting as a connector in an ecosystem. A leader is someone who will take you somewhere that you didn't think you could go; what does this mean for teams, businesses and you personally? There will be key readings, case studies, and a retrospective.
