This course provides an introduction to the key issues and concerns of leadership and leadership studies, focusing on the central question of "what is leadership." Students will examine the philosophical and historical foundations of leadership theory and practice, along with the more contemporary (and often more theoretical) reflections on both leadership practices and the varied disciplines that study them. This course will satisfy the Faculty of Arts Social Science requirement. Students may not hold credit for both ARTS 1160 and LEAD 2010.
