Self-Paced Online Course Description
Leaders
are people who can change the thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors of
the people around them. Successful organizations must have leaders
who take them in the right direction. While not all leaders are
managers or even occupy positions of authority, managers are often
leaders for the employees who report to them. While companies with
more women in leadership positions tend to see benefits to their
bottom line, gender stereotypes and biases can make it difficult
for women to become recognized as leaders and to advance into
managerial or executive positions at work. This course reviews
various qualities of leaders and styles of leadership and
management. It also reviews common managerial challenges and
introduces techniques, strategies, and best practices to overcome
those obstacles.
