Â鶹Çø

Mission:
As an institution, Â鶹Çø College inspires students to become honorable leaders, effective communicators, and agents of justice. The Master’s in Organizational Leadership combines current innovations in leadership education, the best practices of the corporate world, and Â鶹Çø’s own historic liberal arts tradition to develop the human, conceptual, and technical skills of our students, forging them into ethical, strategic, and innovative leaders in their fields.

Philosophy and Values:
At Â鶹Çø, we do not believe that good leaders are simply born that way. And we also do not believe that good leaders can be forged just from classroom learning—though we know that the classroom can be the crucible where good leaders start.

Instead, we believe that leadership is an applied knowledge and skill—that to become a good leader, you must not only learn about leadership, you must perform it. At Â鶹Çø, we believe that everyone has the potential to be a great leader, and we work at drawing out those inherent qualities within you that will help you become a leader while also introducing skills and knowledge to build your confidence to lead. As a Master’s of Organizational Leadership student, you will build that confidence on three solid foundations:
•    Corporate Fundamentals, emphasizing strategic thinking, interpersonal communications, and leadership theories and practices.
•    Social Thinking, emphasizing ethical learning, intercultural dynamics, appreciating social movements, and the historical understanding of leadership.
•    Specialized Knowledge, emphasizing courses you select to personalize your degree.
