LDRS 646 - Empowering Leadership: Mentoring, Coaching, Spiritual Leadership  (3 S. Hrs)

This course is a study that reflects on the character, heart, hope, and practices
of relational leadership which focuses on empowering others-especially the next
generation of leaders. Mentoring is a primary strategy that is examined in
depth. A historical perspective will expose the challenges used throughout the
history of mentoring. A best practices model will be constructed that will offer
principles of relational leadership that can be used in organizations and churches
or with individuals. The coaching model for leadership development will also be
given consideration in this course. Students will have an opportunity to reflect
on those women and men who have played a significant role in their own
leadership development and then anticipate what they may need in present or
future contexts by way of mentoring and/or coaching.
