B. Rationale

1. Statement of the major focus and objectives of the course.

This course addresses theoretical models and applied principles of leadership across contexts, with an emphasis on communication skills and strategies for effectively executing leadership functions, managing emergent challenges and expanding leadership capacity. By the end of the course, students will be able to:

1. Demonstrate an understanding of the features, requisites and basic principles of leadership; 2. Describe the influence of power and position, or lack thereof, on leadership capacity, leadership enactment and communication practices; 3. Describe the major approaches to the study of leadership; 4. Demonstrate an understanding of cultural differences in preferred leadership style enactment; 5. Evaluate leadership competency and practices utilizing leadership theories and principles; 6. Describe the interplay between leadership and followership; 7. Demonstrate an understanding of Enneagram-based personality types and the communication and behavioral approaches best-suited to each type; 8. Demonstrate communication competency in initiating and engaging in “crucial confrontations”; 9. Analyze crisis communication practices, considering prevention, management and post-crisis restoration strategies; 10. Analyze leadership behavior from an ethical perspective; and 11. Evaluate their own leadership capacity and relevant skill-based communication competencies

2. Specify how this new course contributes to the departmental curriculum.

Increasing attention is being paid to leadership development and the communication practices which undergird leadership effectiveness. Although leadership is addressed in various CMST departmental courses—notably Small Group Communication (CMST 371)—coverage of the subject matter is limited due to the necessity of addressing other course-relevant topics. “Professional Leadership” was offered as a CMST 451 “Topics” course in 2012 to address the recognized need of increasing students’ knowledge and communication competence in the leadership arena. This course further equips CMST majors whose career pursuits and interests lie in the areas of “Organizational Communication,” “Leadership and Advocacy,” and working with non-profit agencies.

3. Indicate any course(s) which may be dropped if this course is approved.

No courses will be dropped if this course is added.

C. Impact of this Course on other Departments, Programs, Majors, or Minors

1. Does this course increase or decrease the total credits required by a major or minor of any other department? If so, which department(s)?

No.

2. List the department(s), if any, which have been consulted about this proposal.

No departments have been consulted.

Attach a Financial and Staffing Data Sheet.

Attach an Approval Form with appropriate signatures.

Department Contact Person for this Proposal:

Lisa Glueck______#[email protected] Name (please print) Phone e-mail address Form Revised 4-13-05 WINONA STATE UNIVERSITY FINANCIAL AND STAFFING DATA SHEET

Course or Program______CMST3XX______

Include a Financial and Staffing Data Sheet with any proposal for a new course, new program, or revised program.

Please answer the following questions completely. Provide supporting data.

1. Would this course or program be taught with existing staff or with new or additional staff? If this course would be taught by adjunct faculty, include a rationale.

This course would not necessitate additional faculty. It would be added to our regular rotation of courses; there are at least 3 faculty members who have the background and experience necessary to teach it.

2. What impact would approval of this course/program have on current course offerings? Please discuss number of sections of current offerings, dropping of courses, etc.

In general, offering this course yearly means that we would likely offer some of our other 300-level theory courses on a yearly basis. This would not affect majors because they are allowed to choose three theory courses from the list of relevant 300-level courses. Currently, this course has been taught as a CMST 451 topics course.

3. What effect would approval of this course/program have on the department supplies? Include data to support expenditures for staffing, equipment, supplies, instructional resources, etc.

The approval of this course would not affect departmental supplies nor significantly affect expenditures, although we may request library resources to support student research in this area and/or use monies to purchase books or films relevant to leadership and communication.
