Description

Course description:

This course offers an introduction to relational, authentic and transformational leadership theory by focusing on narrative and the power of storytelling.

Students will practice story-telling techniques by learning about the mechanics of stories, improve their public speaking by engaging in regular storytelling practice, explore their personal history by reflecting on their identities, and develop critical thinking skills regarding the stories (meta-narratives) that surround us, particularly as they relate to engineering problems/ethics.

This is a highly experiential course with a focus on reading, discussion, practice and reflection.
