MALA 61293 Leadership: An Historical and Literary Study

This course examines a broad spectrum of leadership issues through the study of historical and literary (both fictional and non-fictional) leaders in a wide variety of societies and historical eras. The study uses movies to provide multiple contexts in which to understand and apply academic leadership theories. By doing so, the course challenges the student to view leadership from multiple perspectives (theoretical, as well as contextual.) Be aware that this is a totally on-line course, but it is NOT self-paced. Each week, there are activities that must be completed by specific due dates. Students are required to choose their preferred method of accessing movie (e.g., Netflix, Amazon, iTunes, etc.) The TCUglobal site does not provide access to the movies. Students are advised to make plans, early in the semester, for access to the required movies to ensure they have access when the required movie is scheduled.
