LAW 3606 - Lawyers as Leaders
This course is designed to help students think broadly about leadership and to increase their appreciation for the various leadership roles people with legal training may achieve in their careers and the effect such roles can have on advancing a more inclusive, social justice and intersectional society. Given that the legal profession has supplied a large proportion of leaders and given the mounting concern over lawyer mental health and well-being, the leadership training and capabilities of lawyers urgently matter. As society faces problems of growing scale and complexity in an ever-expanding cross-cultural environment, the need for leaders with inclusive vision, moral/ethical values, and technical and emotional competencies has never been greater. In this course, students will learn how to identify and strengthen their own leadership style and abilities through self-assessment and skill development.
Credits: Two or three credits at the teacher’s discretion and based on course content coverage and invited guest speakers.
