Public Health Leadership: Personal Mastery
ID 255

Course Information

Description

Public Health Leadership: Personal Mastery is intended to provide students with opportunities to grow as leaders. The content of the course is informed by a deep understanding of reflective awareness practices as well as core leadership development theories from adult development, emergent strategy, authentic leadership, adaptive leadership, and teaming. Leadership development often requires the nimble ability to expand or shift one’s perceptions of oneself, others, and the world at large. In this course, you will develop an understanding of yourself as a leader; discern your values and purpose as you understand it today; reflect upon your strengths, preferences, growth edges, and limitations; practice skills of listening, dialogue, and connection that often support leaders in working with others; learn practical ways of becoming aware of, accepting, and changing old habits and patterns that do not serve you anymore or that do not serve you in every context; and learn the value of candid feedback and reflection processes.
