Leadership is the process of motivating people to achieve project goals, usually in a dotted-line organizational setting. The success or failure of the project, and by extension the manager, is dependent upon the manager's ability to assess the team as a whole, (strengths and weaknesses), and to then apply that analysis to the individual team members. Within the course, students will have the opportunity to survey and discuss multiple methodologies used to evaluate teams. Students may analyze how organizational dynamics and structure impact the manager, limit or increase their power, and their ability to perform their job.
