FOUNDATIONS OF LEADERSHIP (1-0) 1 hour credit. Experienced campus leaders, known as Peer Leadership Trainers (PLT's), under the supervision of the staff in the Department of Student Activities, facilitate class discussion and assist students in identifying the necessary skills for effective leadership in university organizations, and in both personal and professional settings.

Topics include: leadership vs. management, communication, leadership styles and personality traits, teambuilding, ethical leadership, leadership and change, and diversity and cultural awareness. Opportunities are provided for group problem solving, and team interaction and collaboration. Pass-fail grades will be awarded.

The PLT's are current UTA leaders who have knowledge and leadership experience and can relate to those emerging leaders. The course is open to any current UTA student. See the Schedule of Classes for the current listing.
