Course objectives

The purpose of this course is to examine the field of leadership and management in education and training, with a specific focus on the practical applications of doing this work. The course moves from theory to practice and from the personal to the applied. Guest speakers who work as teacher educators will provide insight into their approaches to this type of work. A major component of this course is to deeply and critically analyze the way that management and leadership are conceptualized and carried out. Students will be asked to critique dominant approaches and carefully consider how we “do diversity” and whether or not current practice is achieving stated or expected outcomes. Reflection on personal identities and intersections with intercultural work will also be explored. The types of questions we will be exploring in this course include: • What does being a good leader means in education? • Describe the key actions and behaviours of the person that you’ve experienced as your best leader? • How can I develop my/your personality to be a good leader?

Learning outcomes

Students will be able to: 1) critically evaluate selected leadership theories 2) work with international literature 3) reflect their own practice
