Class Description:: Change is often built into definitions of leadership, and certainly many scholars and practitioners have written about how leaders can foster change in their organizations or communities. As the U.S. and other countries move more fully into the "innovation economy", understanding the links between leadership and change take on increased urgency. Leaders will need conceptual tools and practical skills to promote innovative organizations that thrive in and contribute to an innovative society. Examine models of change and leadership, and investigate how leaders can promote personal, organizational, and society change. Cases and action research will be emphasized.
