| Course content, structure and pedagogical
approach |
|
Leadership is a vast, complex, and fascinating subject.
Reflecting its foundations in the study of Organizational
Behaviour, it draws on strong research traditions in Psychology,
Sociology, and Anthropology, as well as Economics. In the brief
time we have together we can only skim the surface, but you can
still learn a lot about yourself, the people you work with, and how
to lead the organizations you work within.

| Description of the teaching methods |
| The course has diverse teaching methods using
lectures, cases, reading and discussions. The class meetings are
interactive and require ongoing engagement of the students as this
is a very demanding, highly participative, and extremely rewarding
course. Students need to prepare thoroughly for each class, to read
and to reflect carefully. Students are encouraged to consider their
own experiences and their reactions to them, to share their
insights, and to ask as well as answer questions. Students are
expected to learn from their colleagues as well as from the
professor, to behave respectfully to each other during the debate
of sensitive issues, and to enjoy challenging and being challenged
in an intellectually rigorous manner. |
| Feedback during the teaching period |
The Feedback: Feedback is given to the student
together with the grade when the exam has been assessed.
The Evaluation: At the evaluation unit at CBS’s Economics &
Analysis department, we ask you to evaluate the overall course. In
other words, if there has been exercise classes and lectures, the
evaluation should include both. We evaluate every course and
faculty to secure and strengthen the professional level of the
offered course. |
