Course Overview
This course will survey current leadership theories from multiple perspectives. Specifically we will look at perspectives coming from the reductionist/rationalist perspective (objectivism) and from the holistic/rationalist perspective (social constructivism).  Models of theorizing leadership from these traditions will be explored & critiqued. Primary emphasis will be placed on developmental and behavioral theories of the self, identity, and personhood as a method for establishing a coherent basis for defining and utilizing leadership theory in a practical and experiential way.  Scale, economics, power, equality, and difference will also be interpreted through the various frameworks explored.

Course Objectives

• Define and understand objectivist & constructivist theoretical frameworks
• Establish a definition and understanding of what a theory is and does;
• Explore a variety of leadership models, frameworks, & theories
• Develop and generate dialogue around theoretical perspectives of development of the self;
• Create an autobiographical narrative describing your ‘self’;
• Identify, analyze, & evaluate the reciprocal effects of scale & structure and the self.
• Link theories of the development of the ‘self’ to your narrative and to your experience and goals related to the larger topic of leadership
• Develop your own ‘leadership theory’.

Grading
Grades will be based on the following:

Autobiographical Narrative  - 35%
Write an  8 - 12 page narrative exploring the origin and development of your personal history. This paper is meant to be a deep reflective exercise serving as an index to your life story as you currently understand it. The format for this paper should be informal, discursive, and focused only on yourself. The purpose of this paper is to link your personal journey with the theoretical discussions of the development of the self and the creation and maintenance of identity. It is also meant to stimulate in you an appreciation and recognition of ‘self’ as a fundamental constituent of leadership. This paper is not meant to be a ‘scholarly’ paper in the narrow sense but a reflection paper exploring the inner landscape of your thoughts & feelings. We will discuss in class how your privacy and a sense of safety may be maintained in this process. Please use APA style for the paper in any case. Due via email November 22nd

Mini Presentations  - 20%
Theories from the Northouse book will be assigned (in small groups) for explication and defense to the class. The format will be presentation of  a brief outline of the theory (e.g., trait theory) followed by a questions/answer with presenters acting as proponents and defenders of the theory. Presentation time: approximately ½ hour, with Q&A. Each team will also prepare 4 additional annotated bibliographies of sources other than Northouse.

Leadership Philosophy Paper  - 30%
Your Leadership Philosophy Paper will be titled "My Leadership Philosophy," not to exceed eight (8), doubled-spaced, word-processed pages of text, using the APA format.. Please index and reference your paper to readings and/or class discussions.  Due via email December 10th

Class Participation 15%
Class participation means ‘showing up’. That is, coming to class prepared for dialogue, discussion, group work, and listening. 

Leadership Assessments – Northouse Textbook
In the Northouse textbook, there are leadership assessments/questionnaires/evaluations called a "Leadership Instrument." These are designed for individual self-assessment and are based on the leadership theories discussed in the chapters. Complete each one and be prepared to discuss/share at the appropriate time. The critical element of the analysis is: "Do you think the result of the Leadership Instrument accurately reflects you?"

Writing: Your Leadership Philosophy paper will be graded on: Style, Content; APA format; Grammar; Punctuation; Form - I will use the Rubric as a guide to my evaluation (see Blackboard under “Course Documents). Your autobiographical narrative will be evaluated primarily according to coherence and narrative flow. Of course correct spelling, punctuation, and logical style will be assumed.
