U.S. businesses today operate in a world of expanding globalization, accelerated change and increased complexity. Because organizations are working hard to meet greater market demands, they suffer from an increasing gap in their leaders’ ability to envision, motivate, collaborate and ensure personal integrity and corporate ethics. To thrive, leaders must go beyond profit maximization for shareholder return. Organizations must grow leaders and build innovative, sustainable cultures to meet world-class competition. Leadership is life-long learning and development, which begins early in life and is nourished throughout one’s career.
Today’s current and emerging leaders need to apply and reap the benefits of the best in class leadership strategies and practices. The Goolsby Leadership Academy currently provides a select group of undergraduate students with rigorous development in:
- Developing innate leadership skills
- Management and decision making
- Emotional competence and motivation
- Ethics, personal integrity, and character development
- Goal setting and self-measurement
- Performance measurement and employee evaluation
- Group dynamics and team building
